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!!!

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!

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 😊

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! 🚿✨

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!!

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.

Got the shower regrouted and it’s come up great. The floor looks clean again and the grout lines are sharp. Now the rest of the bathroom looks average next to it haha, might have to get that done too. Good stuff.

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.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Find quick answers about leak detection methods, inspection costs, hidden leaks, reports, and what to expect.
Leak detection costs vary depending on the size of the area, access, and the complexity of the issue. You can request an instant quote, and we will let you know if an inspection fee applies and whether any part of that cost can be credited if you proceed with repair work.
Common signs include damp or soft walls and floors, discolouration, mould, musty odours, loose tiles, swelling skirting boards, and water damage near or outside the shower. In some cases, higher water bills can also be a sign of a leak.
In most cases, no. We use non-invasive leak detection methods to assess the likely source of the leak without opening walls or floors. If further access is needed, we will explain why before any work is done.
Most shower leak detection assessments take around 30 to 60 minutes, depending on the size of the area, access, and the complexity of the leak. We will explain the expected time before we begin.
In many cases, yes. We use moisture testing and thermal imaging to assess signs of water behind walls and around the shower area without cutting into surfaces. If invasive access is needed to confirm the cause or complete repairs, we will explain the next step first.
Leak detection helps identify the likely source and pattern of water ingress, which can indicate whether the issue is more likely related to plumbing, grout/silicone failure, or waterproofing. In some cases, further inspection may be needed to confirm the exact cause.
If reporting is included in your service scope, we can provide a summary of findings and recommended next steps. We also offer detailed reporting for owners, property managers, and body corporate where required.
After the assessment, we explain the likely source of the leak and recommend the most suitable next step. This may be a leaking shower repair, regrouting, a plumbing repair, or a shower rebuild depending on the cause and condition of the shower.
Shower leak detection is the process of identifying the likely source of hidden water leaks in or around a shower. We use a combination of visual inspection and non-invasive leak detection methods, such as moisture testing and thermal imaging, to assess where water may be escaping.
