Short Summary

If the balcony was not waterproofed, water would enter the substrate through the grout in the tiles. This moisture would build up and eventually damage the substrate and possibly cause serious damage to the areas below as well as the balcony itself wh

Challenge

The project is a residential home on the water at Lilli Pilli.

Durotechs Accredited Applicator, Rightway Waterproofing carefully prepared the FC Sheet substrate by removing all dust, oils and other contaminants.

The area was primed with Duromix WBE Hibuild, Two-Part Water-Based Epoxy Primer.

Rightway Waterproofing then installed Flexible Polyurethane Joint Sealant and Duro Flashing Tape to all wall/floor junctions and all other joints in the substrate, to accommodate anticipated movement.

Two coats of Duromix ACS-2 were applied to the area. A total membrane thickness of 1.2mm was achieved throughout.

The membrane system was repeated on the sand/ cement screed (with the exception of the flashing tape) for the “Direct Stick” Tiling method
