What Is Remedial Waterproofing?

Remedial waterproofing is the process of diagnosing and repairing existing waterproofing failures in buildings. Unlike new-build waterproofing applied during construction, remedial work targets problems that have developed over time - failed membranes, cracked joints, deteriorated coatings, and water ingress through walls, balconies, roofs, and podiums.

Remedial Waterproofing Perth is a division of Perth Waterproofing & Silicone Solutions, delivering investigation-led repair solutions across residential, commercial, and strata properties in Perth, Joondalup, Fremantle, Rockingham, and the wider metro area.

Water Where It Shouldn't Be

Persistent leaks through balconies, roofs, walls, or podiums that keep coming back after surface-level fixes.

Previous Repairs That Failed

Silicone patches, paint-over jobs, or band-aid fixes that never addressed the root cause of the failure.

No Clear Diagnosis

Water appearing far from the actual entry point, making it difficult to pinpoint where the waterproofing has broken down.

Strata & Compliance Pressure

Building managers and strata bodies needing documented investigations, scope reports, and certified repair solutions.

Waterproofing Repair Services Across Perth

From initial leak investigation through to full membrane replacement, our remedial waterproofing services cover every stage of diagnosis and repair. We service residential homes, apartment complexes, commercial buildings, and strata properties in Perth, Joondalup, Osborne Park, Subiaco, Canning Vale, Fremantle, Rockingham, Mandurah, and Midland.

Comprehensive repairs where water is entering through walls, windows, expansion joints, or below-ground structures. We solve the cause, not just the symptom.

Crack Injection

High-pressure injection of polyurethane or epoxy resins into concrete cracks to seal active leaks and restore structural waterproofing integrity.

Repair of spalling, carbonation damage, and water-affected concrete including patching, resurfacing, and protective treatment to prevent further deterioration.

Remedial waterproofing solutions for both internal wet areas and external building envelopes, including shower recesses, planter boxes, retaining walls, and facades.

WA Hockey Stadium

PWSS delivered a full waterproofing and anti-slip coating system for the grandstand at WA Hockey Stadium. The project involved meticulous substrate grinding to expose bare concrete pores, application of Adflex WBE primer, Rimseal 170 UV-stable membrane, and two coats of Deckpro 80 non-slip top coat — ensuring the venue is safe for public foot traffic and protected against Perth's intense UV exposure.

Scope of Works

  • Grandstand waterproof membrane
  • Anti-slip coating system
  • UV-stable protective top coat
  • Concrete substrate preparation

Result

High-performance waterproofing with a durable, non-slip, trafficable finish ready for top-level competition. Delivered on time with full client satisfaction.

2 Goderich Street

A multi-area remedial waterproofing project across a commercial property in East Perth. PWSS identified that the existing topping screed could not be waterproofed over, requiring full epoxy screed replacement. Steps were converted to ramps, and a 5-coat over-tile system was proposed for the balcony areas, saving the client approximately $30,000 compared to full screed removal.

Scope of Works

  • Common walkway waterproofing
  • Balcony membrane replacement
  • Bin area concrete remediation
  • Roof plant waterproofing
  • Screed and ramp installation

Result

Comprehensive waterproofing across walkways, balconies, bin stores, and roof plant. PWSS installed additional screeds at their own cost where ponding water was discovered during the works.

Strata Complex Remediation

PWSS was engaged to remediate and waterproof more than 1,000m² of external walkways and communal areas at a strata complex in Hillarys. The project involved removal of existing tiles and pavers, mechanical grinding to remove residual adhesives, drainage rectification, and re-profiling of concrete to create compliant falls. A full WPA Aqualay waterproofing system was installed with critical detailing to drains, penetrations, movement joints, and perimeter upstands.

Scope of Works

  • Over 1,000m² of remediation works
  • Tile and paver removal
  • Drainage repairs and fall correction
  • WPA Aqualay waterproofing system
  • Full re-tiling of all areas

Result

A fully remediated and waterproofed external environment with new tiling across all walkways and communal areas. Durable, compliant, and built for long-term performance.
