Services to explore for your property
Describe outdoor exposure
For a balcony, say whether it is covered or open and when water problems appear. Include doorways, drains and the underside where accessible rather than only photographing grout.
Compact working areas
If storage and work space are limited, describe where materials can be placed and how waste can be removed. Include stairs, building access and any booking requirements.
Make the repair objective explicit
Distinguish an appearance refresh from a leak repair. If you want to retain existing tiles, state that preference while allowing the assessed condition to determine whether it is practical.
Before arranging an assessment
Include your Bondi address, the affected area and when you first noticed the issue. Describe any previous repair attempts and whether the problem follows rain, shower use or another event. Availability and the need for a site visit will be discussed for your specific job.
If the property is part of a strata scheme or rented, identify the person authorised to approve work and share relevant existing reports.
Bondi project questions
Can regrouting fix a leaking balcony?
It should not be assumed to. A balcony leak needs assessment of the relevant building and waterproofing details before choosing surface work.
Can photos help before arranging access?
Yes. Send a wide view, the problem area, drainage and threshold details, and any building requirements you already have.
