Protect Podiums, Planters & Rooftops
With Our Membrane System

Our membrane waterproofing system is purpose-built to protect podiums, planters, and rooftops from long-term water damage. By forming a seamless, durable barrier, it prevents moisture from penetrating into the structure, protecting both the concrete and reinforcing steel from deterioration.

During your consultation, we assess the unique conditions of your project — from exposure to weather and drainage challenges to structural design — and provide a customised membrane solution to suit. This ensures reliable protection against leaks, mould, and concrete cancer, while also preserving the appearance and value of your Commercial or Industrial property.

With our proven methods and expertise, you can trust that your podiums, planters, and rooftops will remain safe, dry, and resilient for years to come

The Problem: Concrete Cancer & Water Ingress

We started inside the top-floor apartment, where the tenant had reported persistent mould. A closer look at the ceiling revealed several fine cracks, which are clear signs that water had been making its way in from above. These weren’t just surface blemishes; they were active pathways for moisture, feeding mould growth and creating an unhealthy living environment.

From there, we moved up to the rooftop to trace the source. As we removed the perimeter flashings, the real issue became clear, concrete cancer was silently spreading beneath. The reinforcing steel (reo bar) embedded in the concrete had begun to corrode, expanding and causing the concrete to crack and break away. Left untreated, this kind of damage can seriously compromise a building’s structural integrity. It was clear we needed to act fast to stop further deterioration and restore proper waterproofing protection.

The Importance: Protecting Podiums, Planters & Rooftops

Why Podium, Planter & Rooftop Waterproofing Matters

Podiums, planters, and rooftops are constantly exposed to the harshest elements — rain, irrigation, temperature changes, and structural movement. Unlike internal spaces, these surfaces endure continuous cycles of water penetration and drying, which makes them highly vulnerable to long-term damage if not properly waterproofed.

The Dangers
When waterproofing is neglected or fails, water finds its way into the slab below. Over time this leads to:

  • Concrete cancer – reinforcing steel corrodes and expands, cracking and spalling the surrounding concrete.

  • Leaks and internal damage – water ingress travels into apartments, offices, and car parks below, damaging finishes and creating costly repairs.

  • Mould and health risks – trapped moisture encourages mould growth, which impacts air quality and occupant health.

  • Escalating costs – what starts as minor leaks can quickly become major structural issues, requiring disruptive and expensive remediation.

The Causes
Common causes of water ingress in podiums, planters, and rooftops include:

  • Poor or failed membrane installation

  • Age-related deterioration of existing systems

  • Cracks from building movement and settlement

  • Continuous water exposure from rain or irrigation systems

  • Lack of ongoing maintenance or incorrect detailing during construction

The Solution
Effective waterproofing requires more than just applying a surface layer. It means addressing the structure’s vulnerabilities directly and creating a long-lasting barrier to keep water out. That’s where our systems — both membrane waterproofing and our patented injectable technology — provide superior protection.

Why Our Patented Technology is Superior
Traditional membranes protect the surface, but when cracks form, water will always find a way through. Our SNSeal Injectable Waterproofing Sealant goes deeper, targeting water ingress from inside the structure. It penetrates cracks, joints, and porous areas to seal the pathways water uses, creating a permanent barrier against leaks. The result is:

  • Long-lasting protection that outperforms foams and poly products

  • Structural reinforcement as SNSeal strengthens surrounding concrete

  • Minimal disruption with non-invasive installation

  • Proven results in podiums, planters, rooftops, basements, and other high-risk environments

By combining advanced membranes with our patented injectable system, we provide a complete waterproofing solution that safeguards exposed structures from top to bottom — protecting your commercial or Industrial property, reducing long-term costs, and extending the life of the building.

FAQS

Have Questions

We’ve heard it all. Here’s everything you need to know before working with us.

Do you have water pooling on the ground?

Are there stains on your walls?

Do you have mould or peeling paint?

Are there rust stains?

If you answered yes to any of these questions then chances are you have a leak and its time to call Stop and Seal!

I have utilised the services of Stop & Seal on several occasions and have found them to be reliable, professional, and most of all, come with a can-do attitude.

The SNSeal product is unique in its application, but most importantly it works, and I’ve seen great results when no one else was willing to attempt to solve an issue. I have great pleasure in recommending their services.

Wayne Syrch
Site Manager, Hutchinson Builders

We have been caretakers of Tweed Ultima Apartments for around 2+ years, At this time we have engaged Stop and Seal to do water leak rectification on 6 or more problem areas around the property.

Each leak has been assessed and whilst Stop and Seal have needed to attend to the same problem area more than once, the important thing is they have kept coming back out. All but 1 of our 6 issues have been resolved and some of these leaks have been issues over 12 years that no one else could fix. I highly recommend Stop and Seal their innovative rubber and activator and most of all their commitment to getting the job done.

Brett Cooper
Director, Tweed Ultima Apartments

Robbie and the team at Stop and Seal are at the top of the game.

They solved a water problem in our unit block that we had been dealing with forever. Now when it rains we aren’t nervous.

Craig Nickson

I have never seen a waterproofing solution work so well.

I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Stop and Seal to anyone with water problems.

Phillip Jones

We have tried many options to try and stop the leaking in our basement carpark.

The boys from Stop and Seal rolled in and in a few day managed to fix a water problem we had been fighting for years.
