Stacked apartment bathrooms
Southport, Main Beach, Surfers Paradise and Broadbeach towers put wet area over wet area. A ceiling mark in one lot can be the shower above, the floor waste, or water from the balcony door. Those are different repairs.
Gold Coast leak testing
Leak testing for Gold Coast wet areas.
On the Coast, balcony water and a failed shower often get blamed on each other. The test is there to separate them before the tiles come up.

Beachside houses
Mermaid, Burleigh, Palm Beach and Coolangatta houses take salt air and a lot of outdoor living. A wet skirting in a bedroom is not automatically the ensuite. We test the shower on its own, then the balcony if the shower holds.
Newer estates
Robina, Varsity Lakes, Helensvale, Coomera and Hope Island have plenty of builder bathrooms still inside the maintenance period. A documented test is more useful to a builder than a photo of a stain.
Where this page covers
Gold Coast
From Southport and the central Gold Coast through Burleigh and the southern beaches, and inland through Nerang, Mudgeeraba and the northern corridor. High-rise, a house, or a villa.
We do not start by demolishing the bathroom. The visit is a visual check, moisture readings, a controlled water test, and thermal imaging if it adds something the meter cannot. You get a written report you can hand to the builder, the insurer or the body corporate.
What you get
The report separates a shower leak from balcony or door water, which is the mix-up we see most often on the Coast. Thermal imaging supports the moisture meter. It does not replace the water test.
