Every HydroForce price below is an indicative starting point for a South East Queensland job. We inspect on site, confirm which zones the standard requires us to treat, then issue a fixed written quote within 24 hours with nothing left open to interpretation.
Prices shown are typical starting points for a single standard wet area including certification.
From $780 per bathroom
Full wet area system for renovations and new builds: floors, hobs, shower walls, junctions and every penetration, flood tested and certified.
From $480 per shower
Step down, hobbed and hobless showers sealed with reinforced corners, correct falls to waste and a full flood test before the tiler starts.
From $420 per laundry
Internal and upper level laundries treated as a containment problem, not a splash problem, so a burst hose never becomes a house wide flood.
Priced per measured scope
Multi unit wet areas, balconies, podium decks, planter boxes, plant rooms and commercial amenities delivered as a documented program.
Often bundled into a larger scope, which reduces mobilisation cost on the day.
| Work | What it covers | Indicative price |
|---|---|---|
| Leak detection and diagnosis | Moisture mapping and targeted investigation of a failing wet area | From $290 |
| Shower re-seal from above | Where the membrane is intact, sealed with minimal demolition | From $650 |
| Screed and fall correction | Re-screeding to establish correct fall to the floor waste | From $380 |
| Balcony waterproofing (AS 4654) | External above ground membrane with threshold and drainage detailing | From $95 / m² |
| Planter box and water feature | Root resistant system with drainage cell and overflow detailing | Quoted on site |
| Additional compliance certificate copies | Re-issued documentation for sale, refinance or strata records | No charge |
All prices exclude GST and are confirmed in writing after a site inspection.
We price on site, never over the phone. These are the variables that matter on a Queensland wet area.
| Factor | Why it matters |
|---|---|
| Wet area size and layout | A compact ensuite with one wet zone is faster than a large family bathroom with a separate shower, freestanding bath and wall hung vanity that all need detailing. |
| Substrate type and condition | A sound concrete slab primes and coats quickly. Timber floors, compressed sheet, patched screeds and mixed substrates need extra preparation and sometimes a different primer. |
| Ground floor or upper level | Upper storey wet areas and rooms over habitable space attract a larger waterproofed footprint under the standard, so more material and more labour. |
| Number of penetrations | Every waste, tap set, mixer body, niche and rail fixing is a separate detail that has to be collared and sealed individually. |
| Access and site conditions | Unit access, stairs only, restricted parking and shared building constraints all add time, which we price honestly up front rather than claim later. |
| Repair versus new build | New work is straightforward. Remediating a failure means demolition, drying, substrate repair and sometimes rectification before the membrane can go down. |
