Services

Regrouting

Our regrouting service restores tiled surfaces by replacing damaged grout with durable epoxy alternatives. This prevents water penetration, eliminates mould, and enhances aesthetics without tile removal. Ideal for bathrooms and kitchens, the process takes 3-4 hours and uses colour-matched grout for seamless results. Customers benefit from faster drying times and long-term protection against moisture damage.

Leak Detection

Using thermal imaging and non-invasive techniques, we identify hidden leaks in bathrooms and balconies. Early detection prevents structural damage and costly repairs. Our specialists provide detailed reports and targeted fixes, ensuring waterproof membranes remain intact. This service is crucial for maintaining property integrity while avoiding unnecessary demolition during inspections.

Waterproofing

We apply advanced waterproof membranes to bathrooms, balconies, and wet areas to prevent water damage. This includes repairing compromised systems and ensuring compliance with building standards. Commercial and residential clients benefit from tailored solutions that protect structural integrity while extending the lifespan of tiled surfaces through proactive maintenance.

Silicone Replacement

Our silicone replacement service removes discoloured or damaged sealant around showers, sinks, and bathtubs. We use mould-resistant silicone to create watertight seals that prevent leaks and maintain hygiene. This quick, cost-effective solution enhances bathroom durability while addressing aesthetic concerns caused by deteriorated sealants over time.

Bathroom Renovations

We offer full bathroom renovations incorporating tiling, waterproofing, and fixture installations. Our designs balance functionality with modern aesthetics, tailored to client preferences. From minor updates to complete overhauls, we manage projects from concept to completion, ensuring minimal disruption and adherence to timelines for residential and commercial properties.

This company was recommended to me by the owner of a tile shop. I called and spoke to Lou, who quickly provided a very reasonable quote. We agreed to go ahead with repairs for my son's leaky shower.
Lou arrived on time, explained exactly what he was going to do and then got to work. We are extremely happy with the work that was carried out, and would recommend Bathroom Surgeon to anyone that needs this type of work to be done. Very friendly and very professional.

They possess a high level of knowledge, skill and experience. Hard work ethic, honest, timely communicators who are punctual.

Thank you so much for fixing our showers!! the guys were on time and extremely professional. I had a double shower and a normal shower that both were in need of grout replacement. The technician came out when he said he would on both days and left my showers looking like brand new - was also very pleased with how clean he left the bathroom no mess at all. I'm so impressed and have passed the companies details onto friends to get their showers done too! Thanks again
