WHAT KIND OF DAMAGE CAN A LEAKING SHOWER CAUSE? LOOSE TILE If water creeps into behind the tile in your shower, it will undermine grout and due to leaking shower wall tiles may come completely loose and floor tiles can start to move around underfoot. MOULD As water moves beyond the shower, it may start to penetrate wood or surrounding plasterboard and lead to the growth of mould on the surface. PAINT DAMAGE When the surface under a layer of paint becomes saturated with water, you will need to repaint the surface after you stop the leak and dry the underlying surface. STAINED CEILINGS AND WALLS If the shower is on the upper floor, the water will drip into the floors below and can cause staining on the ceiling and walls. https://www.waterproofing.melbourne
