Balcony & Deck in Coburg - Frequently Asked Questions
My Coburg townhouse balcony is only a few years old but already leaking. Why?
Unfortunately, some newer developments use lower-grade membranes or have installation defects. We see this frequently in Coburg's recent townhouse developments. The good news is a professional membrane replacement will provide lasting protection.
How do I know if my balcony membrane has failed?
Signs include water appearing inside below the balcony, cracked or lifting tiles, and visible deterioration of grout or sealant around the perimeter.
Can timber decks be waterproofed?
Yes. We sand, treat, and apply specialist timber oils and sealants that protect against weather while allowing the timber to breathe.
Do you handle structural repairs?
We repair and replace damaged structural timbers, joists, and bearers as part of our balcony and deck restoration work.
