Inspect
Review the substrate, falls, cracks, junctions, penetrations, wastes and surrounding construction.
Commercial Waterproofing Melbourne
Waterproofing
Careful preparation and professionally applied membrane systems help protect wet areas, adjoining finishes and the wider building asset.
Protection Below The Surface
Waterproofing planned as part of the complete flooring system.
Successful waterproofing begins well before the finished tiles or floor covering are installed. The substrate, falls, junctions, penetrations and drainage points all need to be considered so the membrane can form a continuous protective layer.
Celtic Floors provides commercial wet-area waterproofing as part of an integrated flooring package. The team can coordinate substrate preparation, compatible primers and membranes, detailing at vulnerable transitions, and the flooring or tiling installed above.
Each project should be assessed against its drawings, product specifications and the applicable National Construction Code and Australian Standards. This page provides general service information; project-specific compliance requirements should be confirmed by the appointed builder, designer or certifier.
Our Approach
A systematic approach to wet-area protection.
The exact system varies by project, substrate and specification, but the fundamentals remain consistent.
Prepare
Clean and repair the surface, form required falls and apply the compatible primer or preparation system.
Detail
Treat corners, changes of plane, penetrations and water stops before completing the membrane field.
Protect
Apply the specified system, allow the required curing time and protect it before the finished flooring is installed.
Commercial Performance
Details that support a durable result.
Continuous protection
Compatible components are selected to create continuity across floors, walls, joints and penetrations.
Integrated installation
Waterproofing, preparation and finished flooring can be coordinated by one experienced team.
Commercial coordination
Work is planned around site access, other trades, curing periods and the project programme.
Careful detailing
Transitions, water stops, wastes and changes of plane receive particular attention.
System compatibility
Primers, membranes, adhesives and finishes are considered as parts of one assembly.
Project documentation
Specified products and installation stages can be recorded to suit project requirements.
