Shower waterproofing in Tossa de Mar.
In Tossa de Mar 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 Tossa de Mar, step by step
In holiday flats in areas such as Vila Vella, Vila Nova and Sa Roqueta the shower is used heavily in summer and hardly at all the rest of the year, so the grout dries out and cracks. With sea air keeping everything damp, a slow leak never dries and turns to mould; we regrout in epoxy and reseal the tray.
For level-access showers in areas such as Mar Menuda, Mas Vilas and Can Pericàs we rebuild the screed with a continuous fall to the drain or linear channel, with no spots where water can sit. The membrane goes under the tile adhesive and bonds to the drain with its own connection collar.
We look at the shower and the neighbour's stain, explain the cause and send a detailed written quote; a site manager coordinates the repair. We also work nearby: Lloret de Mar, Santa Cristina d'Aro and Llagostera.

Frequently asked questions
01Shower waterproofing in Tossa de Mar: which areas do you cover?
We do this work in Tossa de Mar, in areas such as Vila Vella, Vila Nova, Sa Roqueta, Mar Menuda, Mas Vilas, Can Pericàs, Santa Maria de Llorell and Martossa, and also nearby: Lloret de Mar, Santa Cristina d'Aro and Llagostera. 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.
