If you're noticing mould or mildew growth, or a persistent damp, musty smell in your shower, it's a strong indication that moisture has penetrated behind the tiles and potentially into the plasterboard or flooring.

We specialise in comprehensive shower tiling repairs, addressing both aesthetic and functional issues. This full restoration process will include new bathroom waterproofing to ensure a long term solution.

Tiled Shower Bases: Leaks are often due to aged or damaged tiling, compromised waterproofing, a faulty drain outlet, or a drain connection issue. In both cases, you'll likely notice the leak as water stains on the ceiling directly below the shower in double-storey homes, or as water damage around the base perimeter in single-storey homes.
