2/4 - Waterproofing

When Council has done previous certifying they told us that if we fail anything it is going to be the waterproofing of the ensuite. Turns out that they were right, as on Monday they came out the first time, had a quick look and said, you haven't done enough. That was so frustrating as the guy on the phone said the whole floor wasn't needed, just the nail holes and joins. It turns out that because we have the shower floor as part of the main room floor, and we aren't planning on putting a base in, then the whole floor is treated as a wet area. We also had to get Ian to tape around all edges and apply another two coats on top of the tape of the membrane which was frustrating for him, as he felt it wasn't necessary. Thankfully they came late yesterday afternoon and passed us, without even walking into the room!!

I have to say, the green colour of the waterproofing membrane is awesome. I think we should accessorize the bathroom with it, if only Nathan liked Green.
