Waterproofing Repairs

Water. So inert, yet so damaging. Perfect Remediation and Refurbishment has a detailed awareness of how, why and where fluid damage can occur – as well as a thorough understanding of the measures undertaken for future proofing & prevention.

Unless initial construction and/or refurbishment works are completed by trained and motivated professionals, avoidable errors can happen. Even for the well intended mistakes and failures can occur. Let Perfect Remediation and Refurb service your waterproofing needs.

Featured Project

Wentworthville Swimming Pool, Wentworthville
Client: Cumberland Shire Council

Extensive remediation works were begun when the pool’s balance tank showed signs of compromised wall integrity. The concrete lid was removed, revealing cracked concrete and a disintegrating structural corbel. Upon draining the pool, a further inspection revealed the pool’s underfloor culvert hadn’t been waterproofed correctly during initial construction or in subsequent works.

The tiles were hammered up along the length of the pool to gain access to the culvert. Once opened a visual test confirmed the primary drain pipe was made from asbestos, and while it was completely intact, the Cumberland Council felt it was a good time to remove it. Samples were lab tested confirming the pipe wass non-friable ACM.

It was removed under bonded conditions, encapsulated and disposed of as per EPA regulations. The culvert was concrete repaired, relined and waterproofed. A new concrete pipe was installed and the culvert was closed up for another round of waterproofing and retiling.

The balance tank was drained and crack injection repairs were made to the tank walls. This was tested, confirming that the urethane resin had taken hold. Cathodic protection was installed inside the tank to prevent future disintegration. This process involved chasing & jackhammering runs in the concrete and installing anodes. The anodes were connected by low voltage wiring that when powered up controls corrosion. The structural corbel used to support the lid was repaired & reinforced and a new lid was formed, poured and installed.
