Shower Waterproofing
Shower waterproofing must be carried out to a standard set by the Building Code of Australia and Australian Standards (AS 3740-1994).
These standards state that:
- In the shower, the whole floor must be waterproof and the shower walls should be waterproofed up to 1800mm.
- The walls need to be waterproofed up to150mm.
- If the bathroom floor is made of or contains wood or if the bathroom is on the second story or higher, the whole floor must be waterproofed.
- Over the step down to the floor should be waterproofed to 100mm.
These are the minimum standards required but many householders choose to waterproof the area around their bath, vanity and toilet.
