Shower Resealing in Wollongong & the Illawarra

Silicone along the shower floor and corners usually lets go within 12–18 months on a damp substrate. We strip out the failed seals and replace them with a 25 MPa two-part epoxy perimeter seal built to last.

Why silicone keeps failing

Silicone is flexible but doesn’t bond well to damp grout and tile edges. As it peels, water gets in behind it and soaks into the floor joints. Re-siliconing over the top only hides the problem for a few months.

Our resealing process

We diamond-prep the joints, mechanically stripping out the failed silicone, mouldy grout and degraded perimeter joints across the shower floor, hob and vertical corners, then deep-sterilise them. The floor and wall-to-floor junctions are then filled with Australian-made 25 MPa two-part epoxy for a waterproof bond.

Back in the shower the next day

Most reseals take 3–4 hours. The epoxy needs 24 hours of dry curing before normal hot-water use, so you’re usually showering again the next day.

Fixed, upfront pricing

Every package includes the moisture check, thermal imaging and pressure test: $599 for a standard single shower (900×900 or 1000×1000 mm) and $799 for a double or walk-in shower, all-inclusive. See the full pricing or learn more about our leaking shower repairs across the Illawarra.
