Leaking Shower Repairs
We trace the source of the leak first, whether it's failed waterproofing, cracked grout or a gap around the drain. Our leaking shower repairs put the problem right at the source instead of covering it over.


At The Shower Leak Shop, we handle shower repairs in South Coast NSW for homeowners, landlords, property managers and strata managers across the Shoalhaven. A shower that leaks rarely announces itself. It shows up as a musty smell, a lifting skirting board or a stain spreading across the ceiling below, and by then water has usually been getting into the wall or floor for months. We find where the water is escaping, fix the cause rather than the symptom, and leave the bathroom usable again. Behind the business sits more than 30 years of hands-on tiling and waterproofing experience, which is why most repairs are sorted without tearing the room apart. Call 0400 133 028 or send us a message through the form to talk through what's happening in your bathroom.

Grout that's cracked, crumbling or stained black is letting water past the tile surface. Our shower regrouting strips out the failed grout and replaces it with a clean, sealed finish.
Silicone perishes long before tiles do, and the joints where the walls meet the floor are usually first to go. Our shower resealing removes the old sealant and lays down a fresh, watertight bead.
Every wet area needs a sound waterproof membrane underneath the tiles, and once it fails water goes wherever it likes. We handle bathroom waterproofing for showers, laundries and balconies to the Australian Standard.
Sometimes a repair turns into the right moment to update the whole room. We take on bathroom renovations from single shower replacements through to a full strip-out and rebuild.
Plenty of trades will happily replace a shower. Far fewer will work out why the first one failed. We come at every job as tilers and waterproofers, which means we read the tiles, the grout, the fall of the floor and the membrane underneath as one system. That's the difference between a repair that lasts and one that reappears next winter. You also deal directly with the tradesperson doing the work, so nothing gets lost between a salesperson, a scheduler and whoever turns up on the day.
You don't always need to rip a shower out to stop it leaking. In most cases we can repair the existing shower in place, working with the tiles that are already there. That usually means removing failed grout and silicone, re-treating the joints and the drain area, then sealing the shower so water stays where it belongs. The room stays intact, the mess stays contained and you're back using the bathroom quickly. Where the damage has gone too far for that, we'll say so upfront and talk you through what a rebuild involves rather than papering over it.


We're based on the South Coast and cover the Shoalhaven, from Nowra in the north through Jervis Bay and Vincentia, down to Ulladulla and Milton. Most jobs sit within about an hour of home, and we'll travel further for larger renovation work. If you're not sure whether you're in range, call 0400 133 028 and ask.
