Signs You Need Shower Regrouting
Old or damaged grout can allow moisture to penetrate behind your shower tiles. If left untreated, this can lead to water leaks, mould growth, and more expensive shower repairs. Should you notice any of the following six common signs, it may be time to replace grout in your bathroom. Otherwise, you’ll risk the problem becoming worse.
Loose or Wiggling Tiles
Loose or moving tiles can indicate that moisture has affected the grout or adhesive beneath the surface.
Mould Growth
If there is persistent mould or mildew around grout lines, it is usually caused by trapped moisture and poor ventilation. This is especially the case if it is present inside the shower recess.
Crumbling or Cracked Grout
Cracked grout or grout that is breaking away can no longer keep water out and may lead to a leaking shower.
Discoloured Grout
Old grout that has become stained or discoloured can make your bathroom look tired. Even when it has been cleaned.
Wet Patches or Water Leaks
Moisture around nearby walls, the bathroom floor, or adjoining rooms can be an early sign of a shower leak.
Peeling or Bubbling Paint
Bubbling paint on the wall outside the shower is often a sign that water is escaping through failed grout or silicone.
Our Process
Our Shower Regrouting Process
Our proven regrouting process restores your shower without removing tiles (whenever possible). It goes like this:
- Leak Check: We inspect the shower before starting any work. This may involve using thermal imaging to check for hidden leaks.
- Degrout: Using specialist tools, we carefully remove the old grout from the wall and floor tiles.
- Membrane Repair: Where required, we repair the waterproofing membrane beneath the tiles. This helps to prevent any future water leaks.
- Regrout: We apply fresh, colour-matched epoxy grout or cement-based grout where appropriate. This creates strong, clean grout lines.
- Reseal Walls: We finish by applying high-quality grout and silicone to vulnerable areas for extra protection.
Our team can complete most shower regrouting jobs within a day. Generally, your shower can be used again after the grout has cured for at least 24 hours.
How Much Does Shower Regrouting Cost in Perth?

Is Regrouting Worth It, or Should You Replace the Shower?
In many cases, bathroom regrouting is an excellent alternative to a full renovation. If your shower tiles are still in good condition, then replacing the grout and silicone can stop the water damage. At the same time, it can also improve the appearance of your bathroom and extend the life of your tiled surfaces.
If we find that tiles are falling from the wall or major structural issues are present, then we’ll let you know if another solution is more suitable.
Can You Grout Over Existing Grout?
To achieve a long-lasting result, the old grout MUST be removed before applying new grout. That’s because simply adding grout over the top will not bond properly and can lead to early failure, which is why every tile regrout job begins by removing the worn grout first.
