Fix Leaking Shower Without Removing Tiles
Dealing with a leaking shower? You might be relieved to know that in many cases, it can be fixed without removing tiles. At Regrouting Rescue, we offer proven, cost-effective solutions that stop leaks fast—saving you time, mess, and the cost of a full renovation.
Can a Leaking Shower Be Fixed Without Removing Tiles?
Yes! In fact, the majority of leaking showers we repair across Perth don’t require any tiles to be removed. Modern regrouting and sealing techniques are designed to address leaks at the surface level and in the joints—where most water ingress occurs. This approach is not only faster but also far less disruptive.
Our No-Tile-Removal Repair Process
Here’s how we stop a leaking shower without removing a single tile:
1. Thorough Inspection
We begin by identifying the source of the leak—whether it’s from deteriorated grout, damaged silicone, or structural gaps.
2. Old Grout & Silicone Removal
Next, we remove all loose, cracked, or mouldy grout and silicone from the affected areas. This step is crucial to ensure the new sealants can bond effectively.
3. Mould Treatment
Any visible or hidden mould is treated to ensure a clean, hygienic surface before repairs begin.
4. High-Performance Regrouting
We apply new, water-resistant grout designed to withstand moisture and everyday use. This reseals the joints and prevents future leaks.
5. Precision Resealing
We finish with a professional application of high-grade silicone sealant around the shower base, walls, and joints, forming a flexible and watertight barrier.
Benefits of Fixing Your Shower Without Tile Removal
Cost-Effective – Avoid the expense of retiling or replacing waterproofing layers.
Minimal Disruption – No demolition means faster repairs and less mess.
Quick Turnaround – Most showers are ready to use within 24–48 hours.
Long-Lasting Results – Our products are chosen for their durability and waterproofing power.
When Tile Removal May Be Needed
In rare cases, where water damage has reached behind the tiles or the original waterproofing has completely failed, we may recommend partial tile removal or full retiling. However, this is always discussed upfront and only if absolutely necessary.
