Leaking Shower Repair Services

A leaking shower is often caused by failed waterproofing, deteriorated grout, cracked sealants, loose tiles, or movement within the shower structure. Left untreated, even a small leak can lead to water damage, mould growth, timber rot, and costly structural repairs. At Shower Sealed, we specialise in accurately identifying the cause of shower leaks and recommending the most suitable long-term repair solution.

How It Works

Every leaking shower repair begins with a thorough onsite inspection to determine the most appropriate repair solution. We assess whether the shower is suitable for repair using our Ultra Bond Technology (UBT) Shower Sealing System, or whether more extensive waterproofing, tiling or renovation work is required.

We inspect all potential leak points, including grout, sealants, hollow or loose tiles, drains, taps, shower screens and signs of waterproofing or structural issues, allowing us to accurately identify the cause of the leak.

Based on the findings of our inspection, we’ll recommend the most appropriate repair solution for your leaking shower. Each option requires its own removal and preparation process, which will be clearly outlined within your quoted scope of works.

The repair, sealing and protection process will depend on the solution recommended for your leaking shower. The specific works included for each service will be clearly detailed within your quoted scope of works.

What We Fix

Our goal as a company is to stay focused on saving our clients time, money, and unnecessary hassle wherever possible.

Every leaking shower we assess is approached from the same starting point, can this be repaired using our Ultra Bond Technology Shower Sealing System without removing tiles, or with minor shower repairs?

If we determine that your shower is not suitable for sealing, we will clearly explain why, and where applicable provide alternative solutions including waterproofing, tiling, or full shower renovations.

Leaking Showers FAQs

Leaking showers are usually caused by plumbing issues, failure of the waterproofing membrane beneath the tiles, or water bypassing the shower area and escaping into surrounding parts of the bathroom.

In most homes, a leaking shower comes down to one of these three causes, or sometimes a combination of them.

This is why it is so important to have a leaking shower properly inspected by a licensed professional, rather than guessing or attempting temporary fixes.

At Shower Sealed, we bring over 50 years of diagnostic experience between the owners, and well over 100 years of combined experience across our wider team, allowing us to accurately identify the cause of leaking showers and recommend the right solution the first time.

Great question, and the answer really comes down to experience.

While some signs of leaking showers, such as visible damage, deteriorated grout, or failed sealants, may be relatively obvious, it is experience and a structured inspection process that determines what is actually causing the leak and what the most suitable repair options are.

At Shower Sealed, our inspection process is built on more than 50 years of experience between the owners, and well over 100 years of combined experience across our wider team.

This allows us to look beyond the surface-level issues and accurately diagnose the true cause of leaking showers before recommending the right solution.

The repair options available for leaking showers will always depend on the condition of the shower or bathroom, as well as the cause of the leak.

Common repair options include:

  • Stopping use of the shower until the issue has been properly assessed
  • Where suitable, repairing and sealing the shower using our Ultra Bond Technology Shower Sealing System without removing tiles
  • Carrying out minor or partial repairs, followed by sealing the shower
  • Re-waterproofing and tiling part or all of the shower
  • Completing a shower renovation
  • Completing a full bathroom renovation

The correct solution depends on the condition of the shower, the cause of the leak, and the level of damage involved.

This is why a proper inspection is critical, to ensure the leaking shower is repaired correctly the first time, without unnecessary work or expense.

Generally speaking, if you are noticing a large amount of water leaking on a constant basis, even when the shower is not in use, this can indicate a plumbing issue.

In these cases, we strongly recommend arranging for a licensed plumber to attend as soon as possible. They will be able to assess and repair any plumbing-related problems or advise if they suspect the issue may instead be related to shower sealing or a failed waterproofing system.

When it comes to waterproofing-related leaks, the situation can also become serious if there is significant damage beneath or behind the shower recess, or if unsafe or deteriorating conditions are present within the shower itself, such as:

  • Sharp or badly cracked tiles
  • Loose tiles that may fall from the wall
  • Heavy mould build-up or ongoing moisture issues
  • Water damage affecting surrounding or underlying structures

If you believe the issue may be serious, it is always a good idea to have a plumber inspect the shower first. This helps rule out any plumbing-related causes before proceeding with further repair work.

As a general rule, leaking showers should be repaired as soon as possible.

The longer a leaking shower is left untreated, the more damage it can cause. This is especially important where there are potential safety risks for occupants, such as loose tiles, sharp cracked tiles, significant water damage, or a developing mould issue.

Even where the leak does not appear severe at first, delays can allow the problem to worsen over time, increasing both the extent of the damage and the overall repair cost.

In many cases, early action can mean the difference between a straightforward repair and the need for more extensive works.

In general, we are often forward booked. However, if the situation is urgent or potentially dangerous, we will always do our best to assist as quickly as possible.

If you are dealing with a leaking shower that poses a safety risk or is causing ongoing damage, we recommend contacting our team directly so we can prioritize your enquiry where possible.
