Outdoor areas

Balcony & terrace

Describe outdoor joints and waterproofing needs. Detail photos and an overview support planning.

Purpose and applications

What this service is intended to solve.

Balcony and terrace work connects waterproofing, joints, drainage and the wearing layer. Falls, thresholds, edges, penetrations and weather exposure must be considered as one detail.

  • Edge and connection joints
  • Thresholds, plinths and balustrade bases
  • Waterproofing and surface protection
  • Local repairs after condition assessment

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.

Materials

Compatibility is selected for the project, not from a product name alone.

  • Weather-resistant joint and connection materials
  • Liquid waterproofing or membrane systems
  • Protection and wearing layers selected for exposure

Work process

From the first record to a defined scope.

  1. 01

    Record the condition

    Separate overview, details, dimensions and observable damage.

  2. 02

    Define removal

    Clarify existing layers, disposal and protection of adjoining components.

  3. 03

    Prepare the substrate

    Check strength, moisture, cleanliness, geometry and compatibility.

  4. 04

    Execute the system

    Apply the agreed materials and details within the defined conditions.

  5. 05

    Review and hand over

    Document finish, limitations, care and any maintenance joints.

Warning signs

What should be documented before work starts.

  • Standing water or unclear drainage
  • Cracks, detachment and open edge connections
  • Moisture traces below or in adjoining rooms

Project preparation

What makes an enquiry useful.

  1. 1Measure total area, edge lengths and details
  2. 2Photograph falls, drainage and thresholds
  3. 3State layers and earlier work where known
  4. 4Describe exposure, use and available 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.

Measurement tool

Record dimensions with units.

A result remains a planning value until it is explicitly transferred to the shared project draft.
