If you manage or own a unit in a multi-residential building on Sydney’s Northern Beaches, your balconies may not be as safe or compliant as they appear.
Older apartments in suburbs like Narrabeen, Dee Why, Mona Vale, and Manly often suffer from balcony deterioration, putting residents at risk and exposing owners corporations to legal liability.
At Plan A Builders, we’re the balcony specialists Northern Beaches property owners trust for expert repairs, compliance upgrades, and long-term structural solutions.
🚧 Common Balcony Issues in Older Unit Blocks
As experienced balcony experts, we frequently inspect multi-unit buildings with:
Leaking or failed waterproof membranes
Concrete spalling (concrete cancer)
Rusting reinforcement bars and corroded balustrades
Outdated or non-compliant balcony barriers
Structural cracking or sagging slabs
Drainage issues leading to internal water damage
Balconies are a high-risk area for both personal injury and building defects — and ignoring them could cost owners corporations thousands in repairs, insurance disputes, or legal claims.
🛠️ What We Do as Balcony Experts
Plan A Builders offers complete balcony remediation services tailored for strata buildings across the Northern Beaches. Our services include:
Engineering assessment and defect reporting
Concrete repair and slab strengthening
Waterproof membrane replacement
Balcony tiling and surface refurbishment
Balustrade removal and installation (glass or compliant metal)

Coordination with strata, engineers, and councils
🌊 Why Northern Beaches Buildings Need Balcony Upgrades
With constant exposure to salt air, heavy rain, and coastal winds, balconies in seaside suburbs deteriorate much faster than inland areas.
As licensed balcony specialists with extensive local experience, we use coastal-grade materials and proven construction techniques to ensure every upgrade is long-lasting and meets Australian Standards and NSW building code.

We work with owners corporations, strata managers, and building committees in:

Dee Why
Manly
Mona Vale

And surrounding suburbs
Whether you manage a 6-unit walk-up or a 30-unit beachfront apartment, we can help bring your balconies up to code and extend their service life.
