Yeronga, Adelaide — main bathroom and ensuite showing classic signs of failed waterproofing with stained ceilings below and musty odour despite surface regrouting attempts by prior owners.
Challenge
Two wet areas shared plumbing walls; moisture paths were unclear until strip-out. Ensuite shower had hob with cracked tiles; main bathroom mixed tile-over-tile history. Ventilation fans were undersized and ducted into roof space. Owners wanted walk-in shower in main bath and proper ensuite storage within existing footprints.
Solution
Full strip to substrate in both rooms. New membrane systems installed with photographic record. Main bathroom received hobless shower with linear waste and fall verified before tile. Ensuite kept compact shower with niche and wall-hung vanity freeing floor area.
Extract fans replaced with ducted external units sized to room volume. Electrical circuits separated for fan timers independent of lighting.
Outcome
Odour and ceiling staining source eliminated — verified dry after months of use at follow-up contact. Layout feels larger despite unchanged boundaries; storage niches and vanity drawers removed floor clutter. Waterproofing documentation supplied for owner records.
Minor provisional covered unexpected timber repair in main bathroom floor — approved before proceeding.
Scope: Two bathroom renovations, waterproofing, tiling, fixtures, ventilation. Duration: eight weeks staged.
