Trusted by Homeowners and Strata Across Leichhardt

Bathroom renovations in Leichhardt tend to fall into two categories. Either a Victorian terrace where the bathroom was added to the back of the house long after it was built, or a post-war semi where the original wet area is still in place and finally showing its age. Both come with the same underlying issue: waterproofing that either predates the standards or was never done at all.

We have worked through the streets either side of Norton Street, out towards Hawthorne Canal, and in the smaller unit blocks along Parramatta Road. Our tilers and waterproofers hold their own licences and do the work themselves. There is no subcontracting the membrane out to whoever is available that week, which is where most of the failures we get called to inspect originally started.

Bathroom Renovation

Bathroom Renovations in Leichhardt

Leichhardt bathrooms are usually compact, so the layout has to earn its keep. We handle the full renovation: strip out, substrate repair, new membrane cured properly, tiling, fixtures and finish. Where a rear addition has dropped or the floor has movement in it, we deal with that before tiling rather than hoping the adhesive takes up the difference.

Leaking Shower Repairs in Leichhardt

A leaking shower in a Leichhardt terrace usually announces itself through the ceiling downstairs or a damp patch on the hallway wall. We locate the source with thermal imaging and video inspection instead of removing tiles to look. Where the membrane is intact, a repair and reseal will hold for years. Where it has failed, patching only delays the real fix and costs you twice.

Leaking Balcony Repairs in Leichhardt

Rear additions and first floor balconies on Leichhardt homes leak at the threshold and the tile edge more often than anywhere else on the structure. We re-waterproof at the failure point, correct falls where we can, and retile so water runs away from the building rather than into it.

Tiling and Retiling in Leichhardt

Old Leichhardt floors move, and walls built by hand a century ago are rarely straight. We set out carefully so cuts fall where they belong, prepare the substrate for the conditions we actually find, and use the right adhesive system for the material. Porcelain, ceramic, mosaic and stone all behave differently and we treat them that way.

Regrouting and Resealing in Leichhardt

Regrouting is worth doing when the waterproofing beneath is still sound. We strip the old grout out completely, replace it with full epoxy grout and reseal every internal corner with high-grade silicone. It is a fraction of the cost of a renovation and buys real time, provided the membrane underneath has not already failed.

What Leichhardt Residents Say About SealRITE

Maroubra

Case Study (Leichhardt semi, near Norton Street):

The owner had been told by two operators that the whole bathroom needed replacing. Our inspection found the membrane in reasonable condition and the leak coming from a failed silicone joint at the hob, plus grout that had been patched repeatedly around the waste. We stripped and replaced the grout, resealed the junctions and left the rest of the bathroom alone. It cost a fraction of a renovation, and we told the owner honestly they would likely get another five to eight years out of the room.

Frequently Asked Questions

About Bathroom Renovations in Leichhardt

Size and condition drive the figure. Most Leichhardt bathrooms are small, which helps, but terraces and older semis often need substrate work before anything can be waterproofed. We quote on site with an itemised breakdown and a video report attached.
It depends on what we find. If the membrane is sound and the bathroom suits you, a repair is the sensible option and we will say so. If the waterproofing has failed, a repair is money spent twice. We give you the honest version either way.
Less than most people expect, but we are realistic about it. Access is usually through the house, so we protect flooring, contain dust and keep the work area sealed. A standard renovation runs two to three weeks including waterproofing cure time.
Yes, and a fair share of our work here is for landlords and property managers. We can work between tenancies, provide documentation for the agent and quote to a budget that makes sense for a rental rather than an owner occupied home.
No. Our tilers are also our waterproofers, and the membrane is part of the tiling scope. That is deliberate. The gap between two trades is where most bathrooms start leaking.
