Independent assessment of waterproofing failures, identifying defects, moisture risks, and performance issues in commercial and strata properties across Perth and Western Australia.
Services
360 Advisory Services delivers specialised waterproofing defect inspections through detailed on-site assessment of membranes, detailing, and construction interfaces. Inspections diagnose failure points and document findings in structured reports that clearly define defect conditions and associated risks.
Waterproofing Failure Analysis & Defect Identification
360 Advisory Services undertakes detailed waterproofing defect inspections, focusing on identifying failures in membranes, joints, and critical construction interfaces.
Assessments target high-risk areas such as balconies, wet areas, rooftops, basements, and façade junctions where systems are most vulnerable. Installation quality, material performance, and detailing are reviewed to determine how and why failures occur.
This establishes a clear understanding of defect sources and contributing factors, supporting accurate technical diagnosis of waterproofing failures.

Understanding Water Ingress Risks & Impact
Water ingress can result in progressive building damage when not properly assessed. Moisture intrusion may affect structural elements, finishes, insulation, and concealed components, often developing without immediate visibility.
Inspections document the extent of intrusion, identify affected areas, and assess how building elements are performing under moisture exposure. The severity of deterioration and potential risks to building performance are clearly defined.
This provides a direct understanding of how water ingress is affecting the building and its ongoing performance.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How do you identify waterproofing defects in a building?
Waterproofing defects are identified through detailed inspection of high-risk areas such as balconies, wet areas, rooftops, and façade junctions. The assessment focuses on membrane condition, detailing, drainage, and signs of moisture intrusion to determine where failures are occurring and how they are affecting the building.
2. What are the common signs of waterproofing failure?
Typical signs include water stains, damp patches, mould growth, surface deterioration, and recurring leaks. In some cases, damage may be concealed, requiring inspection of surrounding building elements to detect underlying moisture-related issues.
3. Who is responsible for waterproofing defects in strata buildings?
Responsibility depends on the location and nature of the defect, such as whether it affects common property or private lots. An independent inspection helps clearly document the issue and provides information that stakeholders can use to determine responsibility under strata arrangements.
4. When should a waterproofing defect inspection be carried out?
An inspection should be conducted when leaks, moisture damage, or deterioration are first observed, or when issues persist despite previous repairs. Early assessment helps prevent further damage and provides clarity before undertaking remediation works.
5. What does a waterproofing defect inspection report include?
A report includes documented observations, identified defects, affected areas, and supporting evidence such as photographs. It provides a clear explanation of the issue, contributing factors, and the extent of impact, helping stakeholders understand risks and make informed decisions.
