Balcony Remediation
Leaking balconies cause water ingress, cracked tiles, and safety risks. Atomic Projects delivers balcony remediation in Sydney with corrected falls, new membranes, and compliant balustrade detailing — tested and warrantied for long-term performance.

Why balconies fail — and why it matters

Balconies are one of the most common leak points in Sydney buildings. Poor falls, failed membranes, and rusting balustrades allow water to seep into slabs and apartments below. Over time, this leads to cracked tiles, ponding water, corrosion of reinforcement, and safety issues with loose or shaky balustrades.

For strata managers and owners, balcony problems also mean ongoing resident complaints, insurance claims, and repeated costly patch jobs that never last.

The solution: rebuild balconies the right way

At Atomic Projects, we don’t just reseal tiles — we deliver full balcony remediation that corrects falls, installs compliant membranes, and secures balustrades. Every balcony is tested before handover to ensure it’s watertight and safe, giving owners confidence that the repair will last.

Our Balcony Remediation Process

1. Investigation & Assessment

  • Flood testing and moisture readings.
  • Check for fall direction, drainage, and substrate condition.
  • Inspect balustrade fixings and embedment depth.

2. Demolition & Preparation

  • Remove tiles, screed, and failing membranes.
  • Expose substrate and correct falls with new screed.
  • Treat cracks and defective concrete.

3. Membrane Installation

  • Apply high-performance membranes (PU, cementitious, or sheet).
  • Reinforce corners, edges, and penetrations.
  • Cure fully before tiling or finishes.

4. Finishes & Detailing

  • Reinstall tiles, stone, or trafficable coatings.
  • Reinstate balustrades with compliant fixings.
  • Seal joints and apply edge terminations.

5. QA & Testing

  • Flood test or moisture readings post-installation.
  • Engineer sign-off where structural issues addressed.
  • Warranty documentation and photo records.
