Our team is skilled in the installation of advanced membrane systems to meet the unique needs of each project. We apply the right system based on structure, environment, and performance requirements for long-lasting results.

Our expertise includes:

  • Detailed structural and moisture diagnostics (moisture meters, hammer/sounding)
  • Concrete spalling repairs and reinforcement protection
  • Reinstatement of falls, screeds, and drainage outlets
  • High-performance liquid and sheet waterproofing systems
  • Tile and façade reinstatement using compatible adhesives and seals

  • Flood testing and quality compliance verification

Every project is carried out to Australian Standards, ensuring quality outcomes, safety, and peace of mind for our clients.

Why Balcony Restoration Matters?

Water damage is one of the most expensive and disruptive issues for strata properties and new developments. Effective waterproofing is not just a requirement — it’s an investment in the long-term performance of your building.

  • Eliminates leaks at their source, protecting internal finishes
  • Restores safe drainage and compliant balcony falls
  • Strengthens balustrade bases and perimeter details
  • Improves tenant safety by preventing slips, drummy tiles, or structural risks
  • Extends the usable life of balconies without costly rebuilds

At ACT NOW, we help strata managers and developers safeguard their buildings with tailored, future-proof waterproofing solutions.

Frequently asked questions

Why do balconies commonly fail in strata buildings?

Most failures are caused by poor drainage, inadequate falls, failed waterproofing membranes, or incorrect detailing around balustrades and flashings. Over time, this leads to leaks, water ingress, and structural damage.

Do balconies need to be fully demolished to repair them?

Not always. In some cases, targeted repairs can address localised failures. However, if the membrane, screed, or drainage is defective throughout, full removal and reinstatement is the most effective and compliant long-term solution.

Will residents lose access to their balconies during works?

Yes, balconies must be out of use during restoration for safety and curing times. We plan works in stages, provide clear timelines, and aim to minimise disruption wherever possible.
