Inner West properties span Federation cottages, semi-detached homes and small apartment blocks. Many showers in the area still run on original cement grout that's now decades past its service life.
Our technicians repair leaking showers throughout Five Dock and the wider Inner West using premium epoxy grout — no tile removal in most cases, with a written 10-year warranty.
Five Dock properties face unique waterproofing challenges. Heritage terraces and older apartments in the Inner West often have outdated waterproofing. We specialise in non-invasive repairs that preserve character while providing modern protection.
Housing stock is heavily skewed to early-1900s freestanding and semi-detached homes, with pockets of 1960s–80s walk-up apartments and newer townhouse developments. Bathrooms are typically smaller, and many balconies sit directly above bedrooms or kitchens.
A common Inner West scenario: a 1920s semi where the main bathroom shower has hairline cracks across the floor grout and silicone pulling away at the screen. Typically resolved with full epoxy regrout in one visit, with the warranty backed in writing.
