Abstract
The present invention relates generally to a waterproofing assembly (10) for a wet area such as a shower recess (12). The waterproofing assembly (10) comprises an elongate spacer element (24) and a waterproofing membrane or coating (26). The spacer element (24) is adapted to secure to a wall structure (14) which is associated with a wall panel (28). The wall panel (28) rests upon the spacer element (24) to raise the panel (28) above the level of a floor (16) and substantially clear of the wet area (12). The wall panel (28) is otherwise conventionally fixed to the wall structure (14).
