You can try to find a leak in your shower or in the bathroom joints yourself. But remember that it's not always easy to find the cause of a bathroom leak.

A plumber can detect a leak in the bathroom using specialised equipment.

Check the faucet rosettes

As a first step, if you notice a leak in the shower or near the shower, it's best to check the shower faucet rosettes. Check whether the area behind the rosettes is properly glued and whether water can get through from there. In many cases, a leak in the shower is the result of bad sealant work. If that is the case, you can easily solve it by applying new sealant.

Check the grouting of walls and tiles

Another common cause of a leak in the bathroom is a leak in the bathroom grouting. If there is a leak in the bathroom grouting, you can easily check it by taking a close look at the grouting.
