Challenges & Considerations
Common considerations that shape how this type of project is planned and executed.
Locating the actual source of moisture ingress, which is not always directly below the visible damp patch, is part of the initial assessment.
Access to terraces or roof areas is planned in advance, particularly for multi-storey buildings.
Waterproofing coatings require a dry curing period, so work is scheduled around suitable weather windows.
Where seepage affects shared walls or neighbouring units, coordination with adjoining property owners may be required.
