Shower Repairs Bayswater

Got a leaking shower?

If your shower is leaking, water can be getting through the tiles and grout, or leaking from the plumbing inside the wall. The longer it goes on, the further it spreads through the house before you see any damage. By the time stains show up on the ceiling or walls, it has usually been leaking for a while.

If you are noticing any of these, get in touch:

  • Water stains on the ceiling or the wall next to the shower
  • Swollen skirting boards, door frames or vanity
  • Cracked or missing grout and loose tiles
  • Mould or a musty smell that keeps coming back
  • A dripping mixer or water that won't shut off
How We Fix It

We'll get your shower working again and looking great

We start by finding exactly where the water is getting in. Using thermal imaging and testing, we work out whether it is the plumbing, the waterproofing or the grout, so the repair fixes the real cause.

Then we fix it. If it is a mixer, a pipe or the waste, we repair the plumbing. If the waterproofing has failed, we strip the shower back, re-waterproof it and re-tile it, then fit off new tapware so it looks brand new.

Because we do the plumbing, waterproofing and tiling ourselves, you are not chasing three different trades or waiting between them. One team and one point of contact from start to finish.

Shower Repairs FAQs
