Construction solution
Bathroom & Wet-Area Waterproofing
Protect bathrooms, showers and other wet areas against concealed water penetration beneath finishes.
Solution overview
Understanding the application.
Water can migrate beneath tiles and other finishes when wet areas are inadequately waterproofed or poorly detailed. Nia Build provides waterproofing solutions for bathrooms, showers and similar areas, with particular attention to floors, wall-to-floor junctions, corners, drains and service penetrations.
Common signs
What may be happening.
Dampness on adjoining walls, peeling paint outside bathrooms, staining on ceilings below, persistent moisture, mould, deteriorated finishes and leakage around wet areas.
Assessment & considerations
Understand the conditions first.
Assess the source of leakage, substrate condition, floor falls, drainage points, wall-to-floor junctions, penetrations, cracks and the condition of existing tiles or finishes.
Solution approach
Select an appropriate system.
Prepare and repair the substrate, detail corners, drains and penetrations, then apply the specified waterproofing system before reinstating the required finishes.
