Existing condition
Removal and substrate come before the new joint or surface.
Existing material, adhesion, moisture, geometry and adjoining components determine whether local repair is sensible or a wider build-up must be reviewed.
Details that protect
Waterproofing
Describe wet areas, balconies and terraces. Construction details and possible moisture need on-site assessment.
Purpose and applications
What this service is intended to solve.
Waterproofing protects components only as a continuous build-up suited to substrate and use. Connections, penetrations, falls and transitions matter as much as the field area.
- Wet rooms and shower areas
- Balconies and terraces
- Plinths, thresholds and penetrations
- Local detail waterproofing after assessment
Materials
Compatibility is selected for the project, not from a product name alone.
- Liquid waterproofing or bonded system by application
- Sealing tapes, formed parts and connection components
- Primer and protection/wearing layer suited to the build-up
Work process
From the first record to a defined scope.
- 01
Record the condition
Separate overview, details, dimensions and observable damage.
- 02
Define removal
Clarify existing layers, disposal and protection of adjoining components.
- 03
Prepare the substrate
Check strength, moisture, cleanliness, geometry and compatibility.
- 04
Execute the system
Apply the agreed materials and details within the defined conditions.
- 05
Review and hand over
Document finish, limitations, care and any maintenance joints.
Warning signs
What should be documented before work starts.
- Moisture traces, detachment or efflorescence
- Cracks at connections and penetrations
- Unclear falls or standing water
Project preparation
What makes an enquiry useful.
- 1Photograph area, details and water paths
- 2Describe the existing layer build-up where known
- 3Document defects and affected adjoining rooms
- 4Record access, use and weather window
Limitations
A new visible finish cannot compensate for every concealed defect.
Persistent moisture, movement, insufficient build-up or unsuitable adjoining materials may require a broader technical clarification before the selected work can be warranted.
Care and maintenance
Document the handover and observe changes.
Cleaning agents, ventilation, exposure and maintenance intervals depend on the installed system and use. The handover should record applicable care notes and which joints remain maintenance joints.
FAQ
Questions before requesting this service.
Which information is useful for an initial assessment?
Overview and detail photos, dimensions with units, substrate and existing material, observable damage, access and the desired timeframe.
Is removal of the existing material included automatically?
No. Removal, disposal, substrate repair, protection and finishing must be described as separate scope items and confirmed in the quotation.
Can the final system be selected from photos?
Photos support preparation, but compatibility, moisture and concealed build-up may still require testing or an on-site inspection.
Scope and cost factors
Compare the work, not just a metre or area rate.
Only verified joint-sealing guide values are shown on the estimate page. Coating area prices are not invented.
