Shower waterproofing in Sabadell.
In Sabadell we repair leaking showers without refitting the whole bathroom: we open up only the shower area and leave it watertight, with a new tray or tiles.

What shower waterproofing includes
-
Source of the leak
We find out whether water escapes through grout, waste or pipework before opening up.
-
Opening up the area
We lift the tray and shower tiles, leaving the rest of the bathroom alone.
-
Falls to the drain
We rebuild the base so water runs to the waste and never sits.
-
Continuous membrane
Membrane across floor and walls, with tape at corners, pipes and drain.
-
Flood test
We flood the base and check for any loss before closing it up.
-
New finish
Tray or tiles laid on top, with epoxy or mould-resistant grout.
Waterproofing a shower in Sabadell, step by step
In detached and terraced houses the upstairs shower often sits above the living room or kitchen, so a leak shows quickly on the plaster ceiling. We also check where pipes pass through the floor, a spot often left unsealed (mostly in areas such as Centre, La Creu Alta and Gràcia).
We use liquid or sheet membrane depending on the substrate, with reinforcing tape at corners, around the drain and at every pipe. The waterproofing runs up the wall as high as the shower spray reaches.
With more than 20 years rebuilding showers we know what to look for on the visit; the quote is detailed and in writing, and the team works carefully and cleans up afterwards. Also nearby: Terrassa, Barberà del Vallès and Castellar del Vallès.

Frequently asked questions
01Shower waterproofing in Sabadell: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in Sabadell, in areas such as Centre, La Creu Alta, Gràcia, Sant Oleguer, Ca n'Oriac, Torreguitart, Can Deu and La Plana del Pintor, and also nearby: Terrassa, Barberà del Vallès and Castellar del Vallès. Before starting we visit the property and prepare a detailed written quote.
02Is replacing the grout enough to stop the leak?
Only if the grout is the problem and the membrane underneath is sound. If water has already reached the floor slab, the shower has to be lifted and waterproofed again.
03What is a flood test?
We plug the drain and fill the waterproofed base with water. If the level holds and no damp appears below, the finish can go on.
04Does a tiled walk-in shower need more care than one with a tray?
Yes. Without a tray, the membrane and falls are all that hold the water back, so they must cover the whole floor and run up the walls.
