If water is leaking into the basement or room below, the shower should be properly assessed before a repair is recommended. Silicone may seal a small surface gap, but it does not correct failed waterproofing, a damaged shower pan, drain-connection issues, a leaking curb or niche, or deteriorated materials behind the tile. Tile Marble Granite offers free water-damage assessments.
Older shower assemblies can develop moisture problems when drainage or waterproofing details have failed. Persistent moisture can contribute to mold growth and deterioration behind the tile. Tile Marble Granite provides shower waterproofing assessments and repair services.
Water leaking below or beside a shower can indicate a problem within the tile assembly, shower pan, curb, drain area, walls, or waterproofing system. A proper assessment helps identify the source and determine whether a targeted repair or a larger rebuild is appropriate. Call or text me for a free, no-obligation on-site assessment.
Wet rooms require careful planning, proper slope, compatible waterproofing materials, and correctly detailed drains and transitions. If a wet-room shower is leaking or showing moisture damage, I can assess the condition, identify likely failure points, and recommend an appropriate repair plan.
A shower niche that was not properly waterproofed can allow moisture to reach the wall cavity or an adjacent room. A proper assessment helps identify the failed detail and determine the appropriate repair. Shower niches are sensitive areas and must be properly waterproofed before tile is installed.
A shower leak should be assessed before work begins. Surface silicone alone may not correct water intrusion caused by failed waterproofing, a damaged shower pan, loose tile, poor drain details, or deterioration behind the tile. I offer free, no-obligation on-site assessments to identify the cause and discuss repair options.
When a shower repair includes a new or rebuilt waterproofing system, a 24-hour flood test is an important quality-control step before tile installation. The drain is plugged and the shower base is filled with water to check the pan and waterproofing system for leaks. I follow the applicable product instructions and project requirements.
