Why Does My Shower Leak?

Why Does My Shower Leak?

In most cases your house will be the biggest investment you will make in your lifetime. The walls and floors of your dwelling are known to settle for many years after it is built. The constant use of your shower also causes unnoticeable vibration of the floor and walls. This vibration, along with the settlement of the entire dwelling, may cause small hairline cracks in various locations. One of the most common areas to crack are the corners and perimiter shower area.

This is because the tiles and the grout (in between) are rigid and inflexible. Any movement of the walls from the floor will cause the grout to crack and fall out. These cracks can also cause the waterproofing membrane to become brittle after water seeps through it. continuously exposed to water. Water leaks can cause hazardous mould and bacteria to build up, timber fixtures to swell, structural damage to occur and even attract destructive pests such as termites.

Why Does My Shower Leak

What are some signs of a leaking shower?

  Shower walls and grout have a build up of mould.
  Tiles or grout in or around shower are discoloured.
  Rotting timber, wet carpet or flooring.
  Musty Smell.
  Paint peeling or flaking off walls or ceiling below shower.
  Cracks in the walls.
  Grout is falling out or missing.
  Loose tiles, tiles have started coming off the walls.

If you have noticed any of these signs, it is highly likely you are dealing with a leaking shower. If the leak is caused through cracked or missing tiles, missing or cracked grout, sealants missing or peeling etc, Elite Showers is the best solution to rectify the leak. In most cases we don’t even need to remove tiles.

If the shower leak is caused by a leaking or dripping tap, a leaking pipe behind the wall, it will be a job for the plumber. If the leak is getting worse over as period of time, chances are there is a plumbing problem with the pipework. If water leak is only visible when you are using the shower or appears shortly after using it, then you are more likely dealing with a leaking shower.

If you think your shower might be leaking, then its time to give Elite Showers a call on 0285268580. We can help you, if it is a plumbing problem we can even recommend a reliable Plumber. If it is a shower leak Elite Showers will provide you with a no obligation free quote, and book in the next available time to repair that leaking shower.

    Client Wendy Sullivan
  • Outstanding Service So pleased with the service provided to our shower. While we had a few other companies inspect, we chose Elite Showers as from the 1st phone call to the job being quoted, Staff was friendly and unlike others, I was asked many questions to ensure we saved money and didn’t get quoted for things that didn’t need doing. We were over the moon with the prompt efficient service. Once job was completed the bathroom was left spotless and shower looks new again. Thank you Elite.

    Client Mathew Kitching
  • We had Elite Showers come to our home today to do a fix on one of our showers. We have been trying for a while to have someone come out but because it was a small job no-one seemed interested. Very professional and a great job done. Big thank-you. We highly recommend them.

    Client Deborah Waterworth Kellyville Ridge
  • I had a look at the finished job today and it looks great. He has really made an effort to blend things in with the rest of the bathroom.
    He was very helpful with his follow up on questions and queries and sending me images of tile etc
    I have to say I have been very impressed with the service you guys provide…your speedy attention to detail, organisation and of course the job itself.
    You are very prompt and efficient in your replies either by email or phone
    I would have no hesitation in choosing / recommending Elite for any future jobs.

    Kind Regards

    Client Patrick
  • My Bathroom and Balcony were just recently sealed. Not only were the jobs done and completed to perfection. Both areas were left clean and tidy. Trade person respected my home. (taking shoes off on carpet), also did extra bits like unblocking a pipe that he noticed was blocked to assist with water retention.
    It’s not often you find good trustworthy tradesman – who take pride in their work and go the extra mile. I was also able to leave him in my home while I took my kids to Sport. I would highly recommend Elite Showers.

    Client Julie Fenton Stanhope Gardens
  • From the initial call out and the efficient quoting process, to the high quality work, Elite were a pleasure to deal with. We are very happy with the service and highly recommend them.

    Client Robert and Julijana
  • The service provided by Elite Showers was exceptional. From the phone call to the onsite quoting to completing the job, the staff and tech were professional and helpful. Tech thoroughly explained the procedure and repairs needed in our shower. We no longer have any leaks and our shower looks fantastic! I will be highly recommending to family and friends. Thanks again for the fast prompt service.

    Client Eryn Pepyat
  • Definitely recommend Elite. After 7 years of my parents veranda leaking they changed the face of their house from blue to white due to the concrete staining. I asked Elite to come around and look at it, it was fixed within a few hours my parents are extremely happy

    Client Sarah Barlow Stanhope Gardens
  • Elite Showers provided such a great service that was efficient and done professionally. The Technician was prompt and able to do a same day quote and booked in just a few days later. It made the shower look brand new! Would recommend Elite Showers to anyone requiring this kind of service. From a happy customer!

    Client Cecilienne-Mae Rooty Hill
  • We are all pretty quick to complain when something goes wrong. When something goes right we want to tell you about Elite Showers who repaired the faulty leaking grout and resealed around the bath and basins today. We are so pleased with the professionalism and highly recommend them. Thanks again for a great job.

    Client Vicki Crampton Kellyville
  • Great communication and service. Highly recommended.
