A real person answers, day or night
Fix the leak before it finds the framing
Most shower leaks show up as a stain in the next room, not a puddle in the recess. Call (02) 9072 0502 and a plumber can trace the source, from mixer to waste to membrane, and stop it before the damage spreads.
Why showers leak so often here
Old recesses, tired seals
Damp with nowhere to go
Salt-worn mixers drip
Shower repairs we handle
A shower can leak from the tap, the rose, the waste or the waterproofing, and each points to a different fix, so we find exactly where the water escapes before choosing the gentlest repair that actually lasts:
Leaking mixers
Dripping or stiff shower mixers usually call for a fresh cartridge and seals rather than a wall rebuild, which we replace through the existing plate, restoring smooth control and stopping the constant drip that salt-worn cartridges so often cause.
Leaking recess
Water escaping the recess itself comes from failed waterproofing, a cracked hob or a perished waste seal, which we confirm by flood-testing, then repair the actual failure so the fix targets the leak rather than re-tiling a whole wall.
Blocked shower drain
Hair, soap and sand wash into the shower waste and choke it, so the tray pools and empties slowly, which we clear from the trap and grate, then reset the fall so it drains freely after each wash.
Pressure and temperature
Showers that run weak or swing between hot and cold usually have a failing mixer or an unbalanced supply, typical where older and newer pipe meet, and a balanced or tempering valve steadies both the flow and the temperature safely.
Where shower trouble hides
Beach rinse-off adds sand
The leak you cannot see
Renovation reveals the truth
Problems we get called out for
Stain in the next room
A damp patch on a wall or ceiling backing onto a shower is the classic sign of a recess leak, which we trace to its source and repair, so the staining stops spreading and the structure behind it can dry out.
Mouldy, never-drying grout
Grout that stays dark and damp long after a shower points to water sitting in the bed or a slow leak feeding it, which we investigate rather than just re-grout, fixing the cause so the mould does not simply return.
Trickling, gutless flow
A shower reduced to a trickle usually has a blocked rose or a scale-choked supply off the old mains, both of which we clean or clear, bringing back a proper flow without assuming the whole system needs replacing.
Why getting it right matters
A shower leak is the fault most likely to be doing damage while it looks like nothing, because the water goes into the structure, not the floor, and on a damp, sandy slab that structure stays wet:
Hidden water rots structure
Mould follows the moisture
Small fixes beat big ones

How the job runs, step by step
- 01
Call and tell us
Ring (02) 9072 0502 and describe what's happening, and a licensed plumber, not an answering machine, will tell you what it likely means, what to stop using, and when we can realistically be there.

Quote before work
Your plumber inspects the job properly, runs whatever diagnosis it genuinely needs, and hands you a single fixed written price covering the complete fix, with a $0 call out fee and nothing added afterwards.
- 03
Found before it is fixed
Rather than re-tiling on a hunch, we flood-test and trace the shower to prove exactly where it leaks, then repair that fault, so you pay to fix the real problem instead of gambling on the most obvious tile.

Backed for life
Everything we complete is covered by our Lifetime Labour Warranty, the promise that outlasts the job itself: if it's not right, we come back. No questions. No cost.
Why choose Your Plumber Brighton-Le-Sands
Fixed prices, kept
Every job is priced upfront in plain writing before any work starts, the invoice always matches that number, and weekend or late-evening timing changes nothing, because overtime rates simply don't exist here.
Licensed and insured
Your Plumber Brighton-Le-Sands works under licence #275278C with full insurance behind every job, and the compliance certificates that protect your home's paperwork trail arrive with the invoice, without you ever needing to ask for them.
Lifetime Labour Warranty
Workmanship here is guaranteed for life under our Lifetime Labour Warranty rather than for a warranty card's fine-print window, which says more about how the work is done in the first place than any advertisement could.
Genuinely local response
We work these streets constantly rather than commuting in from across Sydney, so the van reaching you has usually just left a job nearby, stocked for the faults the local houses actually develop.
Any dripping rose or failed recess, the leak is found first and the fix is priced in writing.
Good questions, straight answers
Questions Brighton-Le-Sands locals ask
How do you find a shower leak?
We flood-test the recess, check the mixer and waste, and use moisture readings to pinpoint the source, so we repair the actual leak instead of re-tiling on guesswork.
Can a leaking shower be fixed without retiling?
Often yes, many leaks are a waste seal, hob crack or mixer fault that we repair with minimal disturbance, and we only recommend retiling when the waterproofing itself has failed.
Why is my shower drain so slow?
Hair, soap and beach sand build up in the waste and trap, which we clear on the spot, then check the falls so the tray does not pool between showers.
Is the work done by a licensed plumber?
Yes, every shower repair is carried out by a licensed plumber holding licence #275278C, with full insurance, and any required certificate is provided at completion.
What does a shower repair cost?
The visit comes with a $0 call out fee, and you approve the price first, so tracing and repairing the leak is agreed on paper before any tile comes off.
Do older bayside showers leak more?
They can, the 1950s recesses around Bruce Street have aged waterproofing and moved screeds, so leaks at the waste and hob are common and very familiar to us.
