- For showers and wet rooms, ask what tanking system is used under the tiles
- Check that surface water and gutters have been ruled out first

Frequently Asked Questions
Why do roof terraces leak?
Usually failed detailing at upstands, doors and outlets rather than the membrane itself.
How much does terrace and podium waterproofing cost in Dublin?
Typically €80–€160 per m², depending on the size of the house, access and specification.
How do I choose a contractor for terrace and podium waterproofing?
Get at least two itemised written quotes, ask to see recent similar work, and check registrations, insurance and guarantees.
What is the difference between damp-proofing and waterproofing?
Damp-proofing resists moisture. Waterproofing resists water under pressure, as in basements below ground level.
Do I need a sump pump?
If the system collects water, like a cavity drain membrane, a sump pump removes it. A battery backup is recommended.
Can a shower leak without me seeing it?
Yes. Water can get through grout and failed seals into the floor or wall for months before you see stains.
