• Failed sealants
• Inadequate drainage
• Water pooling
• Structural movement
• Damage caused by building or maintenance work
• Deterioration around service penetrations
• Hydrostatic pressure
• Failed previous repairs

A waterproofing failure can sometimes be localised, but widespread deterioration may require a more comprehensive remedial approach.

For occupied commercial properties, repair planning can also take account of access requirements and the use of the affected area.

Residential waterproofing solutions in Newcastle

Residential buildings can experience waterproofing problems in basements, balconies, external areas, retaining walls and other parts of the property.

United Trade provides residential waterproofing solutions in Newcastle for identified water ingress and waterproofing issues. The appropriate repair depends on whether the problem relates to cracking, membranes, joints, drainage, penetrations or another part of the building.

Strata buildings waterproofing solutions

Waterproofing problems in strata buildings can affect common-property areas such as underground car parks, balconies, podiums, basement walls and shared external areas.

United Trade provides strata buildings waterproofing solutions designed around the condition of the affected building element. Where water ingress is recurring, identifying the source and pathway is particularly important before selecting a repair method.

• Whether the leak is active
• Whether cracks or joints are involved
• The condition of existing membranes
• Whether drainage is contributing to the problem
• Whether previous waterproofing work has failed
• Which repair method is appropriate

This can help avoid repeatedly treating the visible symptom while the underlying water pathway remains active.
