01 / The problem
What goes wrong.
Bathroom leaks in Malaysian condos and terraces are usually visible as a stain in the unit downstairs — but the source is a failed waterproofing layer at the upstairs floor trap, pipe penetration, or kerb-to-floor junction. Re-painting the downstairs ceiling never fixes it. Most leaks trace back to a builder who skipped the membrane, used the wrong primer, or left a pinhole at a corner.
02 / The solution
How we fix it.
Full hack-and-redo of the wet area: existing tile removal, screed and substrate prep, two-component cementitious membrane (SIKA TopSeal 107 or MAPEI Mapelastic) carried up walls 150–300 mm with fillet at the floor-wall junction, water-ponding test for 24 hours before the screed bed goes back, then tiling. The water test is the proof that the membrane was installed correctly — a typical defect contractor will skip it.
