Waterline Waterproofing & Certification
Waterproofing is where cowboy bathrooms fail and where ours are won. In Queensland it must be done by a licensed waterproofer, and ours is in-house: named membrane systems, set-down checks, and a certificate lodged for every wet area.
What this job includes.
- ✓Wet-area membranes to AS 3740, named system
- ✓Waterproofing certificates issued and lodged
- ✓Leaking shower diagnosis, honest repair-or-renovate call
- ✓Balcony and laundry wet areas included
- ✓Re-waterproofing under tile-over jobs refused, and we explain why
Itemised down to the membrane.
The same seven-line proposal on every job, so this service is comparable against any other quote you collect.
- 1 The measured design. Laser-measured, drawn with every fixture placed, and signed off by you before demolition is booked.
- 2 Strip-out & disposal. Demolition, asbestos check on pre-1990 sheeting, skip and disposal, all on their own line.
- 3 Waterproofing, certified. The licensed waterproofer named, the membrane system named, and the certificate lodged. Never "included".
- 4 Screeds, falls & tiling. Screed with falls to the waste, tile supply by named range, laying pattern and trim profiles, priced exactly.
- 5 Plumbing & electrical. Licensed plumber and electrician, rough-in and fit-off, with compliance certificates itemised, not "allowances".
- 6 Fixtures & fittings, named. Vanity, tapware, screen and toilet by brand and model, so "equivalent" can never be swapped in.
- 7 Warranty & certificates. 10-year waterproofing and workmanship warranty in writing, plus every certificate in your handover pack.
What happens, step by step.
Consult & measure
At your place. We measure the room, check the substrate and drainage, and talk budget honestly.
Design & fixed price
A drawn design with every fixture placed and a fixed, itemised proposal. You sign the scope, not a sketch.
Strip out, waterproof, certify
Demolition, new rough-in, screeds with proper falls, then certified waterproofing, inspected before a tile goes down.
Tile, fit off & hand over
Tiling, fixtures and glass installed, site cleaned, and a handover pack with every certificate and warranty.
The paperwork behind the price.
Public liability to $20M, and a 10-year waterproofing & workmanship warranty, all in writing, all on request.
In Queensland, bathroom work over $3,300 requires a QBCC licence on the contract, and wet-area waterproofing must be done by a licensed waterproofer. Ours are on every proposal, the membrane is certified before tiling, and the 10-year waterproofing and workmanship warranty is in writing in your handover pack.
