Hi all,
When building a new house, what is actually waterproofed in the wet areas and how high?
I mean, for example:
The whole floor of the "wet room", "skirting" up to (say) 20cm high, all shower walls up to (say) 20cm high???
What are the standards (if any)? Tolerances?
Is it worthwhile asking for a full height waterproofing of the shower walls (eg. 1.8m)?
What do the experts in this area recommend?
Is waterproofing costly?
And generally, is there anything specific one should look out for?
Thanks!
