Homes in Stillorgan, Sandyford & Foxrock and what that means for waterproofing
Mature 1930s–1970s suburbs in Mount Merrion, Stillorgan, Goatstown, Foxrock and Deansgrange, many with large gardens, and modern apartment and mixed-use developments in Sandyford and Cherrywood.
1930s–1960s homes rarely have basements but often have leaking flat roofs over later extensions and older, failing shower trays. 1970s–1990s homes commonly have leaking showers, balconies and flat-roof extensions rather than below-ground problems. Newer apartments often have podium decks, balconies and roof terraces where membrane failures affect units below.
What to check before you hire a waterproofing specialist
- Ask which BS 8102 approach will be used and why
- Ask whether the system includes a sump and pump, and what happens in a power cut
- Get the guarantee in writing, ideally insurance-backed for larger jobs
- 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

Do you cover Mount Merrion, Stillorgan, Goatstown, Sandyford, Cherrywood, Cabinteely, Foxrock and Deansgrange?

What waterproofing issues are common in Stillorgan, Sandyford & Foxrock?
1930s–1960s homes rarely have basements but often have leaking flat roofs over later extensions and older, failing shower trays. 1970s–1990s homes commonly have leaking showers, balconies and flat-roof extensions rather than below-ground problems. Newer apartments often have podium decks, balconies and roof terraces where membrane failures affect units below.
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.
Is waterproofing guaranteed?
Reputable installers give written guarantees. For basements, ask about insurance-backed guarantees.
