Waterproofing — Bathrooms, Balconies & Wet Areas in Brisbane — common questions
Straight answers to the questions Brisbane homeowners ask most often before booking this job.
Can you remove shower tiles, redo waterproofing and retile?+
Yes. Mel One undertakes this full repair sequence, including agreed tile removal, substrate assessment and preparation, waterproofing and replacement tiling. The quote identifies the affected floor and wall areas, related fittings and any additional repairs needed.
Do you also waterproof and retile balconies?+
Yes. Balcony work includes tile removal, preparation, waterproofing replacement and retiling. The existing surface, outlets, door junctions, adjoining areas and access are assessed to define the work.
Will new grout or sealant fix every shower leak?+
No. Surface-joint maintenance and replacement of a failed underlying membrane are different repairs. The assessment determines whether surface work is suitable or tiles need to be removed to reach the waterproofing.
Can I provide the replacement tiles?+
Yes. Send the tile details and the area to be tiled before the quote is finalised. Suitability, quantity, layout, preparation and supply of the other materials are agreed for the job.
How long will the shower or balcony be out of use?+
The schedule depends on removal and repairs, the selected waterproofing system, curing, tiling and site conditions. Discuss access and bathroom availability before booking; the team confirms the stages and when the area can return to use.
