What’s required to fix a leaking shower properly
A shower leak is seldom down to just one fault. In most situations, water escapes through multiple points such as broken-down grout, failed silicone, corner movement, penetrations, or shower base transitions, then tracks to the areas of greatest damage.
What is commonly included with your Bonnyrigg service:
Where the inspection points to membrane failure or a renovation-stage issue, a wider scope may be the better fit. See how this is managed here: Bathroom waterproofing options.

How to ensure shower leaks don’t recur
If you’re comparing Leaking Shower Repair services in Bonnyrigg, the most effective cost saving is getting the repair type right the first time. Use this checklist:
Diagnosis before prescription: Can they pinpoint and explain the leak’s cause and pathway, instead of proposing a generic reseal solution?
Clear scope in writing: The quote should transparently explain inclusions, exclusions, and the scope of the warranty.
Tools used appropriately: Thermal imaging and moisture checks are helpful when they validate the leak pathway, not when they’re used to push a sale.
Reality about “no tile removal”: While many leaks can be resolved without tile removal, membrane failure or structural issues may require a broader scope.
Compliance awareness: Wet-area work should be consistent with domestic wet-area standards under AS 3740 and the NCC, particularly where waterproofing remediation is undertaken.

Common questions we’re asked before booking
Frequently, yes—when grout or sealant failure is the issue and the structure below remains sound. The priority is confirming how water is travelling before deciding on the repair. If membrane failure or deeper damage is found, tile removal or remediation may be necessary.
While many repairs can be completed in a single visit, the timeframe ultimately depends on the issue and required curing or drying time. We treat all timelines as scope-dependent and confirm them following inspection.
Yes—we inspect first to properly define the scope, then provide a fixed on-site quote before work begins, so there are no surprises.
Common contributors include cracked grout, failed silicone joints, tile movement, and ageing waterproofing membranes, particularly at corners, penetrations, and transitions at the shower base. Daily use and humidity gradually allow moisture to escape over time.
We assess issues with shower heads or taps, while also checking for other sources of water escape—because a leaking fitting is often only part of the issue. If plumbing-only work is required, we’ll be upfront about it.
Regrouting replaces deteriorated grout between tiles. Resealing replaces failed silicone at joins and edges. Waterproofing repairs address failure in the underlying membrane system that protects the structure beneath the tiles. The right option depends on the leak pathway and the condition behind the tiles.
Typical signs of hidden leaks include bubbling paint, persistent damp smells, mould, or watermarks appearing on nearby walls. Thermal imaging and moisture meters are useful for confirming moisture tracking ahead of repairs.
Sometimes—whether same-day service is possible depends on the day’s bookings and the job scope. If it’s urgent, early contact gives you the best chance of prompt inspection or scheduling.
Urgent or after-hours enquiries may be possible depending on the type of repair and existing bookings. Some steps still need adequate cure time, so we’ll be upfront about realistic timeframes.
Written warranty options may be available, and the duration/coverage depends on the scope of work and required maintenance. We recommend confirming inclusions and exclusions in writing before work begins so you can compare like-for-like. (Your site references written warranties and long warranty periods, so the page should avoid vague “lifetime” wording.)
