Understanding the signs of leaking showers can help you catch these issues early, preventing expensive damage and preserving the integrity of your bathroom.
Are you constantly spotting water leaks from floor tiles or feel your bathroom is persistently damp? These could be warning signs of a leaking shower. Here are some of the signs to look out for when it comes to leaking showers:
Dampness or Discolouration
Persistently damp areas on walls, floor tiles or in adjoining rooms are red flags.
Bubbling Paint & Wet Carpets
These signs often suggest water damage beyond the surface.
Loose Tiles or Cracked Grout
Water from shower leaks can weaken adhesives, causing tiles to loosen or grout to crack.
Smell
A musty or earthy smell can indicate water leaking, and being absorbed into walls or floors.
If left unchecked, leaking showers can escalate into a significant issue causing costly damage. Below are the common reasons why your shower leaks:
Ignoring leaking showers could lead to a cascade of issues. Here are some repercussions that could surface if shower leaks are left unfixed:
Structural Damage
Water seeping into walls and floors can cause severe structural damage over time. This can destabilise your home, and result in costly repairs.
Decreased Property Value
Persistent leaks and the damage it causes can reduce the value of your property.
Aesthetic Damage
Leaks can cause unsightly damp patches, peeling wallpaper, and discoloured tiles, ruining the aesthetic of your bathroom.
Taking timely action can save you money, maintain the aesthetics of your bathroom, and protect the structural integrity of your home. If you suspect a shower leak, we’re here to help.
As Australia’s most awarded shower repairer, we use innovative products, processes and techniques which we pioneered and patented since 1998, allowing us to fix over 80,000 leaking showers across the country.
DiamoSmart® System: This system uses a Diamond tipped blade that removes the sheen from the tile edge, creating a small gully in wall and floor junctions. This maximises the bonding of sealants, and is supported by our 25-year product warranty.
SealRight™: This is a much superior product that bonds the wall junctions and the floor, preventing wall and floor separation as we waterproof bathroom flooring.
HydroBarrier Sealant: This effectively stops water penetration through tiles. This sealant is painted or sprayed on the wall and floor tiles, forming a shower waterproofing membrane beneath the surface of the grout.
Even a small leak can result in thousands of litres of wasted water over the course of a year. If the leak continues unchecked, you might even find yourself in need of a complete bathroom renovation, which is a costly and time-consuming endeavour.
All these costs can be avoided if the leaking shower is recognised and fixed early. We carry out our shower repair services to the strata industry, real estate agents, hotels, plumbers, builders, and homeowners. We save you thousands of dollars in lost rent, revenue, and unnecessary tiling repairs. Furthermore, our effective solution only takes a few hours to complete for a standard service, so we eliminate the inconvenience of not having a shower for a week while it is being retiled.
