The waterproofing proof survives the tiles.
Once it's tiled over, the evidence is gone. Foxspec keeps the product records, photos, and sign-offs with the job before tiling starts, so you have the proof if a dispute or warranty claim arrives years later.
Compliance captured before it disappears under the tiles.
Waterproofing failures are expensive because the work is invisible after completion. The disputes that follow are hard to defend without a record of what was installed, how it was applied, and what was checked. Foxspec keeps that record with the job.
Evidence before the overlay
Photos, product data sheets, membrane details, and waterproofing sign-offs land on the job record before a single tile goes down. Once it's tiled over, that record is still there.
AS 3740 checklist per wet-area job
Standard compliance items tracked against each bathroom or wet-area job. You can see what's been captured, what's still outstanding, and what the handover pack will need to include.
Compliance pack at handover
When the builder or certifier asks for waterproofing proof, the records are already in one place. Pull a pack from the job instead of rebuilding the evidence trail from memory.
The problem with waterproofing compliance is timing.
NCC 2022 wet-area provisions and AS 3740:2021 both shape what has to be protected, how the system should be applied, and which details are most likely to cause problems. The obligation is clear. The hard part is capturing evidence at the right moment — before the work is permanently covered.
Most compliance problems surface at exactly the wrong time: two years after the job, when a client reports a leak. By then the tiles are down, the crew has moved on, and the product data sheet is somewhere in someone's phone or printer tray — if it exists at all.
Foxspec does not change the compliance requirements. It makes capturing the evidence part of the job workflow, so the record exists when it's needed rather than when it's too late to create it.
