Test

Waterproofing Integrity is NATA accredited (Accreditation No. 21463) for waterproofing testing services. Our technicians use state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment to provide quantitative, evidence-based reports on the integrity of waterproofing systems in new construction, maintenance programs, and diagnostic investigations.

We don’t guess. We measure.

Testing Methodologies

Electronic Leak Detection — Holiday Testing (Dry, High Voltage)

A non-destructive test using a high voltage DC holiday detector on exposed membranes. Detects pinholes, voids, and discontinuities not visible to the eye. More time-efficient than flood testing and works on vertical surfaces including shower walls and retaining walls. This is the most commonly used method on WI projects.

Electronic Leak Detection — Wet / Vector Mapping (Low Voltage)

A low voltage method that uses water to complete an electrical circuit through membrane breaches. Suitable for existing buildings where membranes are covered. Works over tiles on balconies, podiums, and rooftops. The preferred method for diagnostic applications in commercial buildings and strata complexes.

Flood Testing

Traditional water ponding tests as required for compliance verification. Used when specified by standards or when electronic methods are not appropriate for the membrane type or location.

Ultrasonic Thickness Testing

Non-destructive measurement of dry film thickness to verify membrane application meets standards.

Adhesion Testing

Measures bond strength between membrane and substrate to verify proper adhesion and long-term performance.

Moisture Reading

Measures substrate moisture content to determine suitability for membrane application or diagnose water ingress.

Thermal Photography

Infrared thermography identifies moisture presence and temperature differentials behind surfaces without destructive investigation.

The right test depends on the membrane type, location, and application. Electronic leak detection alone has different approaches depending on the situation. Our team recommends the most appropriate method for each project.

Testing methodologies

Non-destructive

No damage to your build

Our NATA accreditation gives our testing reports the legal standing and independent credibility that certifiers, engineers, and courts require. ELD testing can also be used to determine maintenance requirements through the lifecycle of a waterproofing system.

NATA Accredited

Our Approach

A clear, repeatable process built for high-risk projects.

01

Assess

We review your project scope, drawings and specifications to understand exactly where waterproofing risk sits.

02

Advise

You receive clear, independent recommendations tailored to your project type, budget and programme.

03

Verify

On-site inspections and NATA accredited testing confirm that work meets specification and Australian Standards.

04

Report

Detailed, defensible reports give you the documentation you need for certifiers, stakeholders and handover.

05

Support

We stay available through defects liability and beyond, providing ongoing advice whenever you need it.
