A balcony isn’t just about how it looks — the way it’s built matters too.
Small construction decisions can have a big impact on safety, waterproofing, durability & maintenance.
Here are a few details worth getting right 👇
• Keep railing gaps around 3–4 inches
• Fix railings on a proper RCC upstand, not directly on brickwork
• Add tiles behind taps to protect the wall from continuous water exposure
• Keep the balcony level 10–15 mm below the indoor floor level
• Choose 2×2 ft matte-finish tiles for better grip and easier slope formation
These details might not stand out at first glance, but they can make a big difference over time.
