What’s actually involved in fixing a leaking shower
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’s usually part of your Campsie service:
If the inspection indicates the leak relates to membrane failure or an issue from the renovation stage, a broader scope of work may be more suitable. You can see how that’s handled here: Bathroom waterproofing options.

Our step-by-step repair approach
On-site inspection for Campsie properties
We review grout, silicone joints, corners, movement, penetrations, and common failure points, then explain the issue clearly without the jargon.
Identify how the leak is travelling
Where applicable, we use thermal imaging and moisture meters to accurately confirm where moisture is tracking and where it isn’t.
Clear, upfront quote with fixed scope
You receive a clear scope and fixed quote on-site so you can decide without pressure.
Repair strategy aligned with the cause
The solution may be as simple as targeted resealing or regrouting and joint repairs, or as comprehensive as full waterproofing remediation when required.
Testing and handover
We pressure test where suitable, then walk you through the completed work and provide practical care tips to support long-term results.

How to prevent future shower leak repairs
When looking at Leaking Shower Repairs in Campsie, the biggest financial advantage comes from choosing the correct repair approach upfront. 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 clearly state inclusions, exclusions, and exactly what the warranty does and doesn’t cover.
Tools used appropriately: Pressure testing, moisture checks, and thermal imaging should confirm the issue, not be used as sales tools.
Reality about “no tile removal”: A lot of leaks can be fixed without removing tiles, but membrane failure or structural damage can change what’s required.
Compliance awareness: Wet-area repairs should align with AS 3740 and NCC domestic wet-area expectations, especially when remediation work is involved.

Common questions we’re asked before booking
Yes, in many situations—especially when the issue is limited to grout or sealant and the structure is sound. Properly identifying where water is tracking is essential before proceeding. If the waterproofing membrane has failed or deeper damage is present, remediation with tile removal may be required.
Most repairs are often completed in one visit, though the exact timing depends on the issue and required cure or drying periods. While some content suggests repairs can take only hours, timelines are confirmed after inspection.
Yes—the inspection is used to establish the correct scope, followed by a fixed on-site quote before work starts, so pricing is clear and accurate.
Typical causes include cracked grout, deteriorated silicone joints, tile movement, and ageing waterproofing membranes, particularly around corners, penetrations, and shower base transitions. Ongoing use and humidity slowly create small leak paths.
We assess leaking shower heads or taps and also check if water is escaping elsewhere, as fitting issues are sometimes only part of the story. If plumbing-only work is required, we’ll be clear from the start.
Regrouting replaces damaged grout, resealing restores failed silicone joints and edges, and waterproofing repairs address issues in the underlying membrane system. The best option depends on the leak pathway and the condition behind the tiles.
Signs of hidden leaks often include bubbling paint, damp smells, mould, or water marks appearing on the adjoining wall. Diagnostic tools such as moisture meters and thermal imaging help confirm where moisture is travelling before repairs.
Occasionally—availability is influenced by booking availability and the repair scope. Reaching out early for urgent jobs increases the likelihood of a same-day inspection or fast booking.
In some cases, after-hours or urgent enquiries can be accommodated, depending on the job type and availability. Certain repair steps still require cure time, and we’ll be upfront about any limitations.
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.)
