Balconies in the St George district are common on apartment blocks and townhouses near transport nodes, often tiled and exposed to weather on multiple sides.
Our technicians repair leaking balconies across Carlton and the wider St George using commercial-grade epoxy grout and perimeter re-detailing — no demolition in most cases, with a written 10-year warranty.
Carlton properties face unique waterproofing challenges. Properties throughout the St George area require expert waterproofing solutions tailored to local building styles and environmental conditions. Our team has extensive experience in Carlton and surrounding suburbs.
Housing in the area is a mix of 1960s–90s brick homes and walk-up units, plus newer townhouse and apartment developments around major train stations. Bathrooms in older homes are typically smaller and rarely re-sealed since original construction.
A common St George scenario: a tiled balcony on a walk-up unit showing efflorescence and water marks on the ceiling of the unit below. Generally fixed without tile removal using epoxy regrout and perimeter re-detailing.
