Why Your Shower Is Not Draining Properly
- Hair and soap buildupHair, soap scum and body oils build up in the drain over time. This is the most common cause of slow drainage.
- Damaged or cracked shower baseCracks in the shower base can allow water to pool in the wrong place. The base may need repair or resealing.
- Blocked or damaged drain trapThe drain trap can become blocked with debris or damaged. This prevents water from flowing away properly.
- Incorrect fall or slopeIf the shower floor does not slope correctly toward the drain, water will pool. This is a structural issue that may require base repair.
- Grout and silicone failureFailed grout or silicone around the drain area can allow water to seep under tiles, causing drainage problems and leaks.
How We Fix Drainage Issues
We inspect the shower to identify the cause of the drainage problem. If the issue is a blockage, we clear it. If the problem is damaged grout, silicone or tiles around the drain, we repair or replace them.
