Contractor Licence 364828C If you’re seeing water outside the shower, musty odours, mould, or paint that’s blistering, it’s best to treat it as a “track the leak” issue—not a simple reseal. We offer Leaking Shower Repairs in Wentworthville that homeowners can rely on: a thorough on-site inspection, a clear breakdown of what’s failing, and a fixed quote before any work begins.
Not the right option if you’re after a “spray and hope” fix, expect a price without an inspection, or want plumbing-only services without wet-area repair works (we’ll be upfront if another trade is needed).

What’s really involved in fixing a leaking shower
It’s uncommon for a leaking shower to have only one cause. Typically, water is getting through a combination of grout failure, worn silicone joints, corner movement, penetrations, or transitions at the shower base, before migrating to where damage occurs.
What your Wentworthville service generally covers:
If the inspection finds the leak is linked to membrane failure or a renovation-stage issue, a broader solution may be more appropriate. Find out how that’s handled here: Bathroom waterproofing options.

On-site inspection in Wentworthville
We check all key areas including grout, silicone joints, corners, movement, penetrations, and likely failure points, and explain what we find in clear, simple language.
Identify the moisture pathway
Where applicable, we use thermal imaging and moisture meters to accurately confirm where moisture is tracking and where it isn’t.
Upfront pricing with a fixed scope
A clear scope and fixed quote are provided on-site, so you can make an informed decision without pressure.
Repair method matched to the issue
The solution may be as simple as targeted resealing or regrouting and joint repairs, or as comprehensive as full waterproofing remediation when required.

How to avoid having to repair shower leaks again
When reviewing providers for Leaking Shower Repairs in Wentworthville, choosing the right repair type initially is the biggest way to save. Use this checklist:
Diagnosis before prescription: Can they explain the leak path and likely cause, not just propose a generic reseal?
Clear scope in writing: Ensure the quote clearly outlines what’s included, what’s excluded, and the warranty coverage details.
Tools used appropriately: These tools are most effective when confirming a moisture pathway, not when used as a sales aid.
Reality about “no tile removal”: Many leaks can be fixed without tile removal, but membrane failure or structural damage may change the scope.
Compliance awareness: All wet-area work should reflect AS 3740 and NCC wet-area expectations, particularly when waterproofing remediation is required.

Questions we frequently receive 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.
Often, repairs can be completed during one visit, however timing depends on what’s failed and how long materials need to cure or dry. Despite claims of quick repairs, we confirm realistic timelines after inspection.
Yes—the inspection sets the scope clearly, and you’re given a fixed quote on-site before work starts, rather than paying for assumptions.
Common causes include cracked grout, failed silicone joints, tile movement, and ageing waterproofing membranes—especially at corners, penetrations, and shower base transitions. Daily use and humidity gradually open small leak paths over time.
We can check fitting-related leaks such as dripping shower heads or taps, and also investigate whether water is tracking elsewhere, as the fitting may not be the only cause. If plumbing-only work is needed, we’ll tell you upfront.
Regrouting replaces worn grout between tiles, resealing addresses failed silicone at edges and joins, and waterproofing repairs deal with membrane failure beneath the surface. The suitable solution depends on the leak path and what’s happening behind the tiles.
Often, hidden leaks appear through bubbling paint, damp smells, mould, or watermarks on the adjoining wall. Moisture meters and thermal imaging can be used to confirm where moisture is tracking before repairs commence.
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.
After-hours or urgent availability may be possible depending on the nature of the job and current bookings. Some repairs still require adequate curing, and we’ll clearly outline what can and can’t be rushed.
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.)
