Established in 1986 Flexitray has developed into a leading supplier of waterproofing services due to our commitment to quality, reliability and integrity. Now in our twenty-fifth year of business we are firmly consolidated as a true leader in the waterproofing industry. The shower base will be waterproofed if building an insitu shower (tiled base).Ideally, the membrane is applied over the screed.Best practice is to have a membrane below and over the screed. Water quit angles are called for in AS3740 these must be placed at the doorway of a wet area and around the perimeter of an insitu bottom unless a hob or step down has been created to the base.Also a water terminate should be installed under the actual bath onto the podium. Access is a major consideration, if the walls are on the boundary or the site cut has not left adequate room for our applicators to labor in the job needs to be done in stages. Ore planning and appropriate communication are nessessary for us to work from internal and entire the walls in stages as they are bricked up. When the screed has cured, at a later stage, all waterproofing is completed including a second membrane over the screed. screening, this is a screed being placed in a shower base. Finished screened shower base with sheet membrane below, a fluid membrane will be applied to the top surface when cured. Tremco, Non Exposed membrane (EM), EM is a extreme full polyurethane fluid membrane, excellent for use on balconies and terraces, it will cure regardless of temperature and can oppose rain or dew within a scanty hours of application, EM can keep construction time during cold winter periods. Tiles are directly adhered to the membrane using various accredited tile adhesives Once installed it is not effected by rain and tiling can occur on the identical day. Strataflex is ideal for balconies and terraces, can also be impaired for shower bases etc. A step down from the internal floor smooth is required to permit a vertical rise in the membrane Stepdowns should be at minimum 50 mm. Tiles should be laid with expansion lines over joins in Sheet substrate. Flexitray membranes and applications are guaranteed, however, destitute construction of the balcony can effect the integrity of the waterproofing and cause failure. These notes are recommendations only, Flexitray would expect builders to research the superior conceivable construction methods pertinent to each project. A problem prevalent throughout the industry is that tilers are filling up Leak Oversee Flanges with screed material or tile adhesive totally rendering the flange useless in its ability to drain water from the tile bed. This will retain the flange definite and permit waterproof membrane to be applied down into the flange as per AS 3740. Builders should educate their tilers exactly on what a Leak Oversee Flange is designed to accomplish to alleviate any costly repairs at a coming time. The purpose of this is to stop water migrant beneath the tiles to exterior the shower area. Tiled shower bottom : waterproof complete base, insitu bases require water terminate angle to be fitted at shower screen perimeter. Timber floors : Full floor waterproofing is best practice, required in rooms with an insitu shower base or shower over a bath. Brick wall footing, junction must be definite of mortar buildup. Consider building fall into structure to eliminate cement screeds.
