Pricing guide
Costs vary mainly with the underlying cause — surface grout, mould or loose tiles are typically simpler than leaks that affect the waterproofing or substrate. If exact tile matching or specialist procurement is needed, or if membrane replacement is required, the job usually becomes more involved and may require additional visits. Diagnostic time and how accessible the area is can also affect the final scope.
Severity of leak and waterproofing
Local grout or seal repairs are usually less involved than jobs that require repairing or replacing the waterproof membrane.
Tile matching and sourcing difficulty
If matching tiles are not on-site and must be sourced or cut, procurement time and possible extra visits typically increase the job scope.
Grout, caulk and mould remediation
Surface mould cleaning and local regrouting or resealing is generally simpler than remediation that uncovers substrate damage.
Substrate condition and access
Damaged or hard-to-access substrate beneath tiles often requires more work and can escalate the repair regime.
Need for additional trades or visits
If plumbing repairs or full membrane replacement are needed, the scope commonly broadens and may require coordinating other trades or follow-up visits.
