Need shower rebuild advice in Hawthorn? We help when a leaking shower has reached the point where a more complete solution may be the better long-term option.
Some showers can be repaired neatly, but others show signs of long-term waterproofing failure, major movement, or deterioration that has gone beyond a simple surface fix.
In Hawthorn, we often see this in period homes, apartments, and premium bathrooms with heavy day-to-day use. When the shower condition is more advanced, rebuild advice can be the smartest path forward. If you are comparing options, our main shower rebuild page explains the broader Melbourne service as well.
We consider whether the shower is still a good candidate for repair or whether the problems are more widespread.
We help you understand what a repair can realistically achieve and when a rebuild makes more sense.
The aim is to avoid repeat issues and move toward a more durable shower solution.
People searching for a shower rebuild in Hawthorn are often dealing with a bathroom that has had ongoing leaks or visible deterioration for some time. In those cases, honest advice matters.
If the shower may still be repairable, we can also point you toward leak repair or regrouting where appropriate. Further reading is available in our guides on leaking showers, cracked grout, and loose tiles.

They were great to deal with, patient, understanding, and took the time to understand what she needed instead of rushing through the job. We decided to change it to a shower base and will use an adhesive floor mat to help reduce the risk of slipping while showering. I really appreciated how thoughtful and considerate they were with her situation. It didn’t feel like just another job to them.

The space is pretty narrow but they made it feel a lot more open and modern. Tiles are straight, finish is neat, and the drainage works properly now which was our biggest issue before. They were easy to deal with, turned up when they said they would, and didn’t leave a mess behind. Happy with the result.
Very happy with this one. Peter helped make sure the tiles matched the rest of the bathroom, and the niche came up great too. Looks really classy. Thanks guys

The quality of the grouting work was excellent — everything looks clean, precise, and completely refreshed. You can tell they take real pride in their work and pay attention to the small details. What really stood out was going above and beyond! They even did the silicone around my basin at no extra cost, which was such a thoughtful touch and made a big difference to the overall finish. Professional, efficient, and genuinely lovely to deal with. I’d highly recommend them to anyone needing grouting or sealing work done!

We had a leaking shower and were having trouble finding the exact cause. The team carefully inspected the shower and identified that the problem was coming from the shower screen. They did a great job fixing the issue, including regrouting and resealing the shower. Their work was professional, thorough and neatly done. They explained the problem clearly and made sure everything was properly fixed. I really appreciate their excellent service and attention to detail. Highly recommend Shiny Shower to anyone having shower leaks or waterproofing issues. Thank you for the great work!

We experienced full transparency on the quote too, a 24 hour window for 10% discount, deposit & balance of payment. Nothing left in doubt. No uncertainty here. Only time will tell whether the quality of the waterproof epoxy & low maintenance will prove true. We were assured it will. There is one sad thing though - Daniel delayed taking his lunch until the job was well completed & the epoxy well set! Thanks, Daniel, for your "no compromise" attitude towards excellent results!
Thank you for the brilliant work and go extend to replace the seal strip and extra corking, allow the corner become perfect again. Thanks heaps
I’m very happy with the results. Loose tiles are now solid and the grouting looks fantastic overall. A very professional job. Time was important to me and you started and completed the job as planned. Thanks again, guys. Much appreciated.
Daniel is very professional with a website that made booking in a time for a quote and then later works so easy.

He arrived on time each time which is no feat and was much appreciated as we negotiated home and work life. Daniel also did a fantastic job with our bathrooms - each having several issues: water damaged tiles and minor leaks (Causing various flow on effects to ceilings and floors). I highly recommend Daniel. Our bathrooms look great and more importantly are waterproofed and sealed.
We were very happy with their service. Daniel and Mark were very cooperative, efficient and friendly.
Excellent job, professionally done. Attention to detail, friendly service, you can't ask for more. The house was brand new in 1995, this is the second job to freshen up the shower, to re-grout and eradicate mould. Many thanks!!!
Shiny Shower came out to do a leak detection, found the source of the leak, and then fixed it. There was a lot of mould and rotten wood underneath, so they had to remove the shower base and redo the waterproofing properly! It made a huge difference!…Shiny Shower came out to do a leak detection, found the source of the leak, and then fixed it. There was a lot of mould and rotten wood underneath, so they had to remove the shower base and redo the waterproofing properly! It made a huge difference! I've got before and after photos and the improvement is very clear! They also sorted a few cracked tiles in another bathroom as part of a separate shower repair. Everything was done quickly and Daniel was very professional. 5/5 stars!
Peter and Dee did a perfect job re-grouting and sealing two showers. Thanks for all your help!
I was so impressed with their 1st job, I had to call them to do our ensuite as well. Very happy!
We originally just had leaking tiles but Daniel suggested switching to a shower base instead which made a lot more sense long term. Ended up being cheaper and way more reliable.

Ended up being cheaper and way more reliable. Were very happy with the finish. No more worrying about leaks which is the main thing we wanted. Pretty straightforward process and no issues with the team.

Finding an owner-operator who actually does the work himself rather than passing you off to a sub-contractor is so rare these days, but Daniel treats your home like it’s his own. He just finished resealing and regrouting both of our shower bases with epoxy grout, and the craftsmanship is next-level. The job was completed to such a high standard, and the cleanliness throughout the process was incredible, not a speck of mess left behind. If your shower needs repair, don’t hesitate or risk getting caught out with sub-contractors. Having the owner himself complete the job makes all the difference. Booking Daniel is easily the best decision you can make to get your showers looking brand new again! 🚿✨
These guys are pros when it comes to shower grout. Our showers look like new again. Thanks!

The tiles look great and we went with that light stone colour and it came up better than we expected. Everything lined up properly and the finish is nice and clean. They also added the little shelf in the wall which is actually super handy. Job was done on time and no issues at all.
From booking to job completion, these guys were awesome. We had a very small window of time to do the job, they quoted and completed the job within days. Cannot thank them enough for doing what they did. And the job was brilliant. Great finish,…From booking to job completion, these guys were awesome.
