The Opportunity

“With over 25 years proudly servicing the building industry, our products and systems are tried & true!”

Wet-seal encompasses all facets of waterproofing and sealing internal and external wet areas for residential, commercial and industrial applications. All of our systems exceed Building Standard requirements; are covered by an iron-clad guarantee; and are fully compliant with the current waterproofing code. Wet-seal franchisees are also able to sell and install underfloor heating systems.

Wet-seal was first born in Coffs Harbour, NSW, Australia in 1984 when one of the now current Directors recognised a niche in the market, formed a partnership and created the waterproofing business. After several successful years of working in the field the Director and his partners formed the franchise, which is now operating on both islands of New Zealand and in all states of Australia. The company consists of a Corporate & Audit Office in Coffs Harbour, Marketing Office on the Gold Coast, and a Technical Office, which is based in Melbourne. Wet-seal is continuing to expand at a rapid rate in both New Zealand and Australia and hasn't looked back since becoming a waterproofing franchise company in 2001. In fact, we are also looking to further expand into the overseas market with ventures in China on the horizon.

Out of over 960 franchise systems operating in Australia, Wet-seal were recently ranked by BRW magazine as one of the top 50 fastest growing franchises and have been for the past 4 years, a great achievement!

Quality assured systems, clear guidelines and upholding the Wet-seal brand is essential to Wet-seal’s business growth and success. We have a dedicated IT department and tailor-made software tracking all work, product batches and administration.

We know that purchasing a Wet-seal franchise could be the biggest and best decision you ever make and we try to help you by making that choice as easy and simple as we can for you.
