Some people may not even be aware that water is leaking as the water may be draining under the house or in an area not frequently used. There are a number of causes such as poor quality grouting to floor and wall tiles, tap penetrations, leaking tap fittings or faulty plumbing, but one of the main causes is the separation between the floor and the wall of the shower recess.

WHY MEMBRANES FAIL?

Most showers today will either have a shower tray or waterproofing membrane installed under the shower floor (building regulation requirement). There are many potential causes of waterproofing failure. Most fall under four broad areas: design and construction defects, incorrect preparation, application errors and incorrect product selection and inadequate protection. When failure accurse water begins to leak into the floor and walls or be absorbed by the woodwork and carpets in the bathroom and adjoining rooms. These damp areas are not only unsightly and smelly, they can onset rot and attract white ants.

THE ONLY SOLUTION!

The only solution is to totally prevent water from penetrating the gaps and joints in the shower recess. There are many temporary makeshift solutions to help remedy the problem such as silicone sealants or shower plugging products. They are temporary, untidy and difficult to keep clean. Constant efforts to remove the dirt/mould build up only add to the problem as few sealants are resistant to abrasive powder cleansers and scouring brushes.
