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.
Waterproofing systems form part of a larger building envelope. When a membrane fails, water rarely appears where it enters.
Instead, moisture can travel through slabs, wall cavities, screeds and structural elements before surfacing elsewhere in the building.
Assessment of moisture pathways, membrane condition and contributing defects.
Identification of the source of failure.
Preparation of a detailed remediation strategy.
Removal of failed systems and installation of compliant waterproofing solutions.
Long-term strategies designed to improve durability and building performance.
