Waterproofing

Hi, looking to get a reliable waterproofing company to do my open balcony ... any recommendations and estimated cost ?

Thanks

Just a word of advice..

Specialist waterproofing companies charge a huge premium, and it's hard to claim on their warranties.

There is nothing better than a conservative design, which in Singapore is documented in the BCA CONQUAS series of handbooks.

By adopting CONQUAS practices, even average workmanship will not result in waterproofing problems.

Since waterproofing is normally followed by general renovation work such as tiling/painting, might as well get the main con to do the waterproofing rather then direct contract with specialist waterproofing contractors.
