Services

Waterproofing Services

Specialist systems for commercial construction, remedial rectification and residential works across Sydney and NSW.

Capability

Select a service

Each service page sets out scope, methodology and where the system suits the application.

Technical Capability

Engineered to keep water out.

Waterproofing is not painting membrane onto concrete. It is substrate science, detailing, sequencing and verification. Every VVS installation follows the same disciplined sequence.

01

Substrate Assessment

Moisture content, falls, cracking, laitance, contamination and existing membrane condition are assessed before any product is selected.

02

Preparation

Grinding, shot blasting, crack routing, patching and priming. Membranes fail on preparation long before they fail on product.

03

Detailing

Penetrations, drains, upturns, corners, movement joints and terminations are detailed to manufacturer specification first.

04

Membrane Installation

Torch-on, liquid-applied or sheet systems installed to specified wet-film and dry-film thickness across every coat.

05

QA & Inspection

Coverage records, batch numbers, photographic evidence and hold points documented through the installation sequence.

06

Testing

Flood testing and inspection coordination prior to any overburden, screed, tiling or protective layer being installed.

07

Protection / Handover

Protection boards, drainage cell and screed coordination, then handover documentation issued to the project team.

Detail is everything

The membrane is only as goodas the detail beneath it.

Substrate

Moisture content, laitance, contamination and cracking are assessed and corrected. A membrane can only bond to what is underneath it.

Quality Assurance

Proof before handover.

Substrate

Condition, moisture and falls recorded before works commence.

Systems

Systems we work with

System selection depends on substrate, exposure, movement, overburden, drainage, application method and project requirements. The right product on the wrong detail still fails.

ARDEX

Cementitious and liquid-applied membrane systems used across wet areas, balconies and podium decks.

SIKA

Polyurethane, cementitious and below-ground systems engineered for movement, exposure and hydrostatic load.

TREMCO

High-performance sheet and liquid membranes specified on commercial roofs, terraces and trafficable decks.

Manufacturer names are listed to identify the systems VVS installs. No endorsement, sponsorship or accreditation is implied unless separately stated in writing.
