Shower Leak Repair
A leaking shower is one of the most common and most damaging plumbing problems in any home. The tricky part is that shower leaks come in several forms, and not all are obvious.
- Leaking shower mixer or tap
- Leaking behind tiles
- Leaking showerhead or hose
- Leaking at the shower base or hob
- Water appearing on the ceiling below your bathroom
If you can see water where it shouldn’t be, don’t wait. Ignoring a leaking shower risks mould, timber rot, and costly structural damage over time. Some shower leaks are hidden entirely behind walls. In those cases, our leak detection services can pinpoint the source without unnecessary damage.
Local Shower Plumbing Specialists
If you need a full shower installation or a straightforward replacement, we provide complete shower plumbing services across the Sunshine Coast. We install walk-in showers, over-bath showers, and wet room setups; replace old shower mixers with modern, water-efficient valves; and upgrade standard showerheads to rainfall or rail shower systems.
Need to relocate a shower point as part of a renovation? We handle that too, including connecting new shower drainage to your existing system.
New Bathroom and Renovation Plumbing
Planning a bathroom renovation, extension, granny flat, ensuite, or full renovation? Getting the plumbing right from the start is critical. As an experienced bathroom renovation plumber on the Sunshine Coast, Universal Plumbing N Gas manages both rough-in plumbing (completed to Australian Standards and inspected) and fit-off plumbing.
We work alongside builders, tilers, and waterproofers to coordinate both stages seamlessly, and we ensure all bathroom plumbing services comply with QLD regulations and Australian Standards, including waterproofing compliance under AS 3740.
Bathroom Upgrades and Fixture Replacement
You don’t always need a full renovation to transform your bathroom. Sometimes a few smart upgrades make all the difference. Popular upgrade jobs we handle include:
- Swapping a dated showerhead for a modern rainfall or rail shower
- Replacing an old vanity with a new unit (including full plumbing reconnection)
- Upgrading to a water-efficient dual-flush toilet
- Installing a freestanding bath where a built-in bath previously sat
- Adding a second basin to a shared bathroom
- Replacing old chrome tapware with matte black or brushed nickel finishes
Whether you’re refreshing a tired ensuite or adding value before a sale, our team of residential plumbers can advise on the best upgrades for your space and budget.

FAQs
How much does bathroom plumbing cost?
It depends on the scope of the work. A shower mixer replacement costs far less than full rough-in plumbing for a new bathroom. We provide free, upfront quotes so you know exactly what you’re up for before any work begins.
Can you fix a leaking shower without removing tiles?
Sometimes, if the leak is coming from the shower mixer or showerhead, it can often be repaired without touching the tiles. If the waterproofing membrane behind the tiles has failed, more extensive work may be needed. We’ll diagnose the issue honestly and walk you through your options before proceeding.
What is rough-in plumbing for a bathroom?
Rough-in is the first stage of bathroom plumbing, where we lay all the water supply lines and drainage pipes before walls and floors are completed. It must be done to Australian Standards and inspected before tiling and waterproofing can begin.
Do I need a plumber to install a new vanity?
Yes. Connecting water supply and drainage to a new vanity unit must be done by a licensed plumber to ensure proper connections, prevent leaks, and comply with QLD plumbing regulations. It’s a straightforward job for us, and we’ll have it done cleanly and correctly.
