Client Background
A Carindale family noticed water marks forming on the downstairs ceiling beneath their main bathroom. Concerned about structural damage, they reached out to Platinum Seal for a professional diagnosis and fast solution. With young kids in the home, they needed a hygienic and long-term fix that wouldn’t require major bathroom works or multiple days of downtime.
The Problem
Upon inspection, our licensed technicians identified several common waterproofing issues in the upstairs ensuite:
- Cracked grout across wall and floor junctions
- Peeling silicone where the screen met the base
- Minor mould growth under the existing sealant
- Moisture seeping through joints into the subfloor cavity
Left untreated, these leaks could have caused major ceiling and framing damage — a frequent issue in older Carindale homes where grout and silicone have degraded over time.
Our Solution
We recommended our proven epoxy shower re-seal system, a complete waterproofing restoration carried out without removing tiles.
Process:
- Preparation: All old grout and silicone were stripped out from the shower area.
- Cleaning: The surface was thoroughly cleaned and sanitised to remove mould and residue.
- Epoxy Re-Seal: High-grade Mapei epoxy grout was applied across all joints to form a watertight finish.
Final Sealing: Flexible, colour-matched silicone was applied for a neat and durable result.
The leaking shower repair in Carindale was completed within one day, ensuring the family’s bathroom was fully functional the next morning.
The Results
✅ Leak permanently sealed — no more water reaching the ceiling below
✅ Shower restored with a clean, fresh finish
✅ Durable epoxy system providing long-term protection
✅ No tile removal or rebuild required
