Tiling & Waterproofing

Expert tile installation and waterproofing for long-lasting protection.

What Is Tiling & Waterproofing?

Transform your shower, bathroom or balcony with Aquatech’s expert tiling and waterproofing services in Brisbane. We use premium materials and industry-approved systems to ensure a flawless finish that’s fully waterproof, durable, and built to last.

1.

Demolition & Preparation

We start by removing all existing tiles, wall sheeting, and fittings as required. This exposes the substrate so we can check for water damage, rot, or movement before rebuilding begins.

2.

Plumbing Rough-In

Once stripped back, your licensed plumber completes all rough-ins — adjusting drains, mixers, and plumbing lines to suit the new layout and ensure full compliance.

3.

Surface Priming

Before waterproofing, we apply a specialised primer to the floor and wall substrates. This improves adhesion of the waterproof membrane, seals the surface, and ensures maximum durability.

4.

First Waterproofing Coat

A premium waterproof membrane is applied to all walls, floors, and junctions. Corners and joints are reinforced with waterproof bond breakers or fabric tape for extra protection.

5.

Second Waterproofing Coat

After the first coat cures, a second layer is applied to achieve a complete, watertight seal that complies with AS 3740–2021 Waterproofing of Domestic Wet Areas.

6.

Bedding Installation

A screed (bedding layer) is installed to create the correct fall toward the drain, allowing water to flow efficiently and preventing pooling or ponding.

7.

Precision Tiling

Our professional tilers install your chosen tiles with exact alignment and premium adhesives, ensuring strong adhesion and a flawless finish.

8.

Epoxy Grouting & Sealing

We grout all joints using Mapei waterproof epoxy grout, which is 100% waterproof, mould-resistant, and highly durable. All corners and edges are sealed with flexible silicone for a clean, watertight finish.

9.

Final Inspection & Clean-Up

We complete a full inspection to confirm waterproofing integrity, correct drainage fall, and overall finish quality. The area is cleaned and ready for fit-off or use.
