Leak detection is useful when you know there is moisture around the shower but the exact source is still unclear.
In Parkville, this is common in terraces, apartments, and older-style bathrooms used daily by households and renters, especially where showers have been repaired before but the underlying issue has not been fully confirmed. If you are comparing options, our main shower leak detection page explains the broader Melbourne service as well.
Why people investigate

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! 🚿✨

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.

We had an ongoing shower leak and were quite worried because we couldn’t figure out where the water was coming from. They took the time to properly inspect it and found that the shower screen was leaking.
They fixed the problem with regrouting and resealing, and the work was done really well. Everything was neat and professional, and they explained what the issue was and what needed to be done.
It’s a big relief to finally have the shower leak sorted. Thank you to the Shiny Shower team for the great work. I would definitely recommend them to anyone having shower leakage problems.

Every step was performed thoroughly and with care. Daniel explained each step from the grout used down to the tile sealer. The grout lines are clean and the tile surfaces restored to their former sheen. The screen doors were cleaned and the shower door moulding replaced with new. We picked Daniel because of his tiling background and we wanted someone that has the expertise to fix any issues if they pop up during the job. Happy to recommend Shiny Shower!!

I requested a complete shower rebuild of my shower in an older style apartment block. Daniel, the installer, was a great communicator and explained the process, every step of the way. This company is professional, experienced, and does high-quality tiling and certificated waterproofing work. The result was a very smart looking ultra modern shower. If ever I need a shower rebuild service into the future, I will be calling them again.

From first in-person consult, to booking via their online system was easy and timely. Daniel came out to do a full regrout with epoxy / re-silicone all completed in a day. I can now shower with ease without mouldy silicone and failed grout!
I will definitely use them again for our upstairs bathrooms 😊

The previous shower was done badly and ended up leaking into the timber underneath, so we needed it rebuilt properly from scratch. You can tell straight away this one’s been done with a lot more care. The falls to the drain are spot on, it looks clean, and the whole base feels solid. Honestly, such a relief to have it fixed properly by actual professionals. I very much recommend Daniel and Shiny Showers for your shower work :) Thank you Daniel and your amazing team.

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!
