A leaking shower never fixes itself. Water tracks through failed grout and sealant into the walls and floor around it, feeding mould and quietly causing damage that spreads well beyond the bathroom. SmartSealed has spent 30+ years fixing leaking showers across Greater Sydney: sealed at the source, without removing a single tile, and ready to use again in just 24 hours.

Why is my shower leaking?
Even a small shower leak can lead to long-term damage if left untreated. The most common causes we find across Sydney homes:
Deteriorated grout and seals: grout cracks and silicone breaks down with age and movement
Building movement: small shifts open joints between tiles, walls and screens
Cracked or broken tiles
Plumbing issues: cracked pipes or broken seals around connections behind the wall
Failed waterproofing: the membrane beneath the tiles has broken down
Rather than treating the visible signs, our technicians assess the whole shower to find the real source of the problem. If we suspect the leak isn't coming from the grout or seals, our leak detection service pinpoints it before any repair work is quoted.
Fixed without removing a single tile
Most leaking showers don't need demolition. Our epoxy regrouting and sealing system repairs the shower over your existing tiles:
The SmartSealed process
In-home assessment of the leak and the condition of grout, seals and tiles
Remove all failed sealant and grout
Re-grout with high-quality, mould-resistant epoxy grout
Seal with the SmartSealed shower sealant: it penetrates up to 9mm for all-round protection and inhibits mould growth
Ready to use in just 24 hours
Most shower reseals are completed in a few hours, with no smell, no mess and no need to leave your home. Compared with ripping out tiles and re-membraning the whole bathroom, it's a fraction of the cost and disruption.
Epoxy regrouting, the modern shower repair
Epoxy grout is dense, waterproof and far more resistant to cracking and staining than standard cement grout. It's the reason we can restore a leaking shower to like-new condition while your tiles stay exactly where they are. Read more about epoxy regrouting.

Common questions
Before you ask.
Can a leaking shower really be fixed without removing tiles?
Yes, in most cases. Leaks caused by failed grout, seals or minor tile damage are repaired over the existing tiles using epoxy regrouting and our penetrating sealant. Where the cause is a plumbing fault or a fully failed membrane, we tell you upfront and quote the right fix instead.
How long does a shower repair take?
Most reseals are done in a few hours, and the shower is ready for normal use 24 hours after we finish.
How much does it cost to fix a leaking shower?
Every shower is different, so we quote each job individually, free, with no obligation. SMS your suburb and a photo of your shower to 0419 988 499 and we'll take it from there.
What are the signs my shower is leaking?
Musty smells, mould that keeps coming back, crumbling or discoloured grout, loose tiles, peeling paint or watermarks on the other side of the bathroom wall, or skirting boards lifting nearby.
Will the repair be visible?
Yes. The shower comes up looking fresh and clean. Fresh epoxy grout lines give the surface an even, renewed finish, and because we seal over your existing tiles rather than replacing them, the result is a consistent look throughout.
