Why Bathroom Waterproofing Matters

Bathroom waterproofing protects your investment. It prevents costly damage down the line.


Swansea Council now requires rapid damp inspections. Condensation is cited as a primary cause. This is happening in investigations citywide.


What is Waterproofing?

Waterproofing (also called tanking) creates a water-tight barrier. This barrier sits beneath your tiles. It prevents moisture from getting into walls, floors, and structure.


Since July 2018, BS 5385-1:2018 made this mandatory. This applies to all wet areas. The standard is clear: tiles and grout alone cannot provide a watertight seal.


Every bathroom we complete includes full waterproofing as standard. You get British Standard compliance documentation. This is important for insurance and future property sales.
