Bathrooms, laundries and kitchens all need waterproofing done properly.
Ask what system is used
Different membranes suit different situations. A good contractor can explain what they use and why.
Check the falls to drains
Water should always run towards the drain. Correct falls are part of a waterproofing job done well.
Allow curing time
Membranes need time to cure before tiling. Rushing this step puts the whole job at risk.
Keep records
Photos and paperwork of the waterproofing stage are valuable later, especially when selling or for future maintenance.
