The most common cause of a leaking shower is due to natural movement of a property or building, you may not be aware that the shower is leaking until it is too late as the water could be leaking under the base rotting the floor below or even the structural beams and joists. Other causes are poor workmanship like grouting main junction joints which is a huge NO NO as filling these joints with grout will not allow for movement and cause tiles to pop or separate from the tile underlay, another reason we dont grout main junction joints is that in most cases grout is sand based and allows water to penetrate through it unless a waterproof additive is used in the mixing of the grout. On average a house hold with 2 people using a shower at least 7 times a week each, adds up to 728 uses in 1 year alone at an average 4 min shower at a low water pressure rate of 9 litres per minute totals 26,208 litres of water splashing around your family shower area each year with a small hole in the grout or a slight crack taking as little as 5% is still 1310.4 litres of water leaking in to your walls and floor.
