Without the trouble or cost of replacing tiles, we can identify, diagnose, and repair a leaky shower or balcony so that it is usable the very next day. As soon as you see these warning indicators, give Bathroom Surgeon a call.
WHY IS MY BALCONY LEAKING?
Building Movement
Building movements due to differential footing movements can cause cracks and gaps in balconies, leading to water ingress and leaks.
Faulty waterproofing
This issue arises from incorrect installation or damage over time due to factors such as temperature changes, or shifts in the building. Poor workmanship during installation can significantly compromise the membrane’s performance, causing leaks on the balcony. Moreover, the use of inappropriate waterproofing materials or methods can weaken the balcony’s capacity to effectively resist water.
Missing Grout
The absence or degradation of grout between tiles enables water to penetrate, which can lead to a leaking balcony by compromising the structure.
Inadequate Drainage Slope
A proper slope ensures water drains off the balcony, preventing pooling. Standards such as AS4654.2 require a minimum slope of 1 in 100 to avoid water stagnation and prevent leaks on the balcony.
