Welcome to our blog.

The house is built on a sloping site in Oakleigh. Installed 3 retaining walls. Between retaining walls the

distance is 1-1.5 meters. Water enters the house through these walls. It is necessary to carry out external

waterproofing of  the wall. The situation is further complicated by limited space.

However, "You never know what you can do till you try."

The soil has been dug up. The wall is plastered. Very often, due to time and water, plaster comes away

from the wall,becomes chipped and bubbles. Applying a waterproofing membrane over such plaster is a

waste of money and labor. Therefore, we remove the existing plaster from the wall using a grinder down

to bare brick. After this we wash the wall with a pressure washer.

After preparing the wall in this way, we can perfectly see all the problem areas through which water

penetrates inside.

As always, the weakest point is the junction of the foundation and the wall.  We form a 45* angle fillet at

corners between the foundation and the wall with  rapid-setting cementitious compound Sika Plug -

(Fast Setting Water Plug)

During excavations, it turned out that the soil was very wet. Moreover, the deeper it is, the wetter it is. This

gave grounds to believe that water does not penetrate into the ground from above. Water flows down the

hills in the earth's thickness.

Therefore, we decided to install an AGI pipe below the Foundation-Wall joint. A scoria base was created

under the pipe for filtration.

Backfilling is carried out with layer-by-layer compaction of the soil (every 100mm).

And finally, at the end of the work, our branded “After is better than Before”

We clean up after ourselves thoroughly.
