Unfortunately, not everyone is getting the message. As the Water shield solutions points out, inadequate bathroom waterproofing is one of the top three domestic building defects found in Australia and can cause as much structural damage to a house as termites.
When you consider the regulations stated above as well as the list of things that a poorly completed job can lead to, the short answer to this question is no.
On top of that, anybody who tries to do it as a DIY job should realise that it can also affect warranty and insurance claims.
In any case, DIY jobs are not actually allowed in NSW and Queensland. In those two states, the task must only be carried out by a licensed professional. In the other states, while licensing is not required, all work must meet the Australian standards, as set out above. So, DIY is off limits to everybody but skilled tradespeople who really know how to waterproof a bathroom.
