Protecting your home from water damage
Process
How It Works
1. Apply the membrane
The waterproof membrane is applied to walls and floors in wet areas such as showers and around baths.
2. Seal corners and joints
Special sealing tape is used on corners, joints and around pipe penetrations for complete waterproofing.
3. Seal around pipework
Pipe outlets and fixtures are sealed with waterproof collars to prevent any water ingress.
4. Fully protected shower area
The entire shower floor and walls are covered to create a continuous waterproof layer.
5. Ready for tiling
Once the membrane is in place, tiles can be installed with confidence, knowing your bathroom is fully protected.
About This Service
What is a fleece-backed waterproof membrane?
Some sheet membranes use a waterproof core with fleece surfaces that help compatible adhesive bond the membrane to a suitable substrate and accept tiling over it.
Correctly installed, with approved overlaps and sealing accessories, the system can form part of a watertight assembly. Product choice depends on the surface, wet-area design and manufacturer's guidance.
Important: A membrane alone is not enough if corners, drains and pipe penetrations are not sealed correctly.
What Our Customers Say
“Alex and Gyorgy have done an excellent job renovating our bathroom. Alex have taken it back to brick and renewed all the pipework and electrics. Installed a shower and enclosure, vanity unit and basin, WC and towel rail. Also put up shower panels and tiled the floor and painting. Alex kept us informed on the work he was doing. They are very professional and trustworthy. It was a pleasure working with them. We would recommend them without hesitation. Hope to work with them in the future project. No job too small.”

Alex was a dedicated hard worker professional running through each stage on a daily basis. His attention to detail was phenomenal creating a very beautiful bathroom. I was so very pleased at the end result and grateful I found Seby bathrooms. I would highly recommend Alex and will definitely use him again in the future for any other work I may have.”
