Client Background
A Clayfield homeowner reached out after discovering moisture seeping through the wall behind their main bathroom. The shower was only six years old, but small cracks in the grout had begun allowing water to escape behind the tiles. The client wanted a long-term, guaranteed waterproofing fix that wouldn’t involve a full bathroom renovation.
The Problem
During inspection, our team found several points of failure that had caused the leak:
- Cracked grout at the wall and floor junctions
- Missing silicone where the screen met the base
- Mould growth along grout joints
- Moisture tracking into the wall cavity behind the shower
This type of problem is common in Clayfield homes, where heat and humidity accelerate the breakdown of grout and silicone — allowing gradual water damage to spread unseen.
Our Solution
Platinum Seal’s technicians completed a same-day epoxy shower re-seal, a proven waterproofing system that restores integrity without tile removal.
Process:
- Removal: All old grout and silicone were stripped out completely.
- Cleaning: The shower was treated with an industrial-grade mould and bacteria remover.
- Epoxy Installation: High-performance Mapei epoxy grout was applied to every joint for a permanent watertight seal.
- Sealing: Flexible, colour-matched silicone was reinstalled for a flawless finish.
The leaking shower repair in Clayfield was completed within one day — leaving the bathroom ready for use the following morning.
The Results
✅ Leak fully sealed — no more moisture behind the wall
✅ Mould removed and prevented with epoxy technology
✅ Tiles preserved — no demolition or re-tiling needed
✅ Professional finish backed by long-term waterproofing warranty
