Bathroom Waterproofing Repair in Witney
If water is getting behind the tiles or into the wall or floor around a shower or bath, the waterproofing behind the surface may have failed.
In many cases, the problem is not visible until tiles loosen, sealant repeatedly fails or damp starts to appear nearby.
I repair failed bathroom waterproofing and rebuild the affected area properly so the installation is watertight again.
Signs the waterproofing may have failed
-
sealant repeatedly failing around the shower or bath
-
loose or cracked tiles
-
damp smells after showering
-
staining on nearby walls or ceilings
-
movement or softness behind tiled areas
These issues are often a sign that water has been getting behind the finished surface for some time.
What bathroom waterproofing repair usually involves
Repairing failed waterproofing usually means removing the affected tiles or wall finish, checking the condition of the backing boards or plasterboard, and rebuilding the area properly before retiling or refitting.
