Eastern Suburbs strata postcode mixing 1970s walk-ups, 1990s mid-rises, and 2010-2020 boutique infill.
Three distinct build waves all surfacing different remedial profiles at once. 1970s walk-ups: rising damp and facade. 1990s mid-rises: balcony and concrete cancer. 2010s boutique infill: planter-box failures already showing inside 10 years.
The Supcon approach is the same anywhere in Sydney metro: find the source, scope it properly, fix it once. The suburb’s build wave and exposure profile change the diagnosis, not the standard.
Balconies are complex building elements comprising multiple interconnected systems. These systems include waterproofing membranes, drainage systems, tile finishes, screeds, balustrades, structural concrete and junction details.
Failure in any one of these areas can allow water ingress and contribute to wider building defects.
Assessment of waterproofing performance, drainage, tile condition, moisture pathways, structural integrity and sliding doors.
Identification of the cause of failure before recommendations are made.
Detailed documentation outlining required rectification works, waterproofing requirements, structural repairs, drainage improvements and project sequencing.
