Yes, that was the previous name of the same guys who installed our waterproofing according to the certificate. They had the same phone number and address details as Drymans.

Just make sure Metricon doesn't skimp on the waterproofing. They've screwed us over, basically have had to replace both wet area's waterproofing and our house is only 10 year's old. They almost got away with it the first time around. Now we're having to take them to a building authority to try and ...
How did you find out that they skimp on it ? The fact we've had both wet area's waterproofing compromised within 10 year...

Correct, the waterproofing that was used was inferior quality. And as we've been told by a number of tradesmen out to look at our issue, the black waterproofing isn't supposed to be used in bathrooms. Our waterproofing has deteriorated to the extent the tipers who have come out to look cannot even s...

A few years ago Metricon was using a waterproofing contractor 'Dryman'. Their sloppy work resulted in a number of bathrooms, laundry and balcony waterproofing jobs having to be rectified despite Dryman's prior issuance of their waterproofing 'cerificates' Some customers would have picked up the def...
Okay, so we've located the waterproofing certificate and the installer's are BK's waterproofing from Ormeu, same phone n...

Unfortunately, imo you would have been slightly better off in Queensland, if you detected and reported the non compliance/ fault during the defects period. BTW, the concrete shouldn't breakup that easy are you getting cracking around the House? We did detect and report within the defects period, we...

Did Metricon have a Performance Solution written into the contract that permitted water resistance rather than water proofing? As far as we're aware back in 2010 it was waterproofing. We thought we were paying for quality. We're in a 10 year old home. We've had issues with both bathroom's.

Would you think a reputable builder such as Metricon would make sure the quality of waterproofing in their builds is A+? Obviously with our build it wasn't. Both shower recesses waterproofing gave out. The main bathroom shower was leaking 4 year's (2014) after the build (2010). It was initially deal...

Had problems with water leakage in main bathroom initially, we had raised issue's and were given false info by Metricon representative. After a period of time raised the same concerns and fina...
