Waterproofing under balcony (above living area).
Hi forum friends!
I have torn down a balcony that was built on top of a part of the downstairs in the house. The balcony is 2x10m and currently has galvanized sheet metal as waterproofing. The sheet metal is not in good condition and I need to fix something on top before I can build decking and railing, etc. I can't remove the sheet metal as it was built in behind the facade when it was replaced many years ago.
I visited my local building supply store twice and asked for advice; the first person I spoke with thought Micoral might be sufficient but if I wanted to be more sure I should use macoflex or RAW HP2200.
The second guy I talked to recommended topsafe, which seems more like a proper roof.
I have extremely little knowledge about this and hope I can get some input from you! Of course, I want to get away as cheaply as possible but I also want to make sure it's done right...
Very grateful for any answers!

Never got a real answer, but I ended up buying ytpapp from Byggmax that can handle a slope down to 3 degrees. https://www.byggmax.se/tak/takpapp/ytpapp-glaciär-3-trebolit-svart-p17281
