Q: When should I call a bathroom repair contractor instead of a plumber?

Call a bathroom repair contractor when the issue involves tiles, waterproofing, vanity, silicone, grout, fixture mounting or mixed wet-area repair. If it is only a choke, tap leak or pipe leak, a plumber route may be enough.

Q: Do bathroom repair works need an HDB renovation permit?

Simple fixture swaps, re-sealing and minor repair usually do not need a renovation permit. Hacking tiles, moving pipes or changing wet-area layout can require HDB-approved renovation scope.

Use this page when the bathroom issue is more than a simple tap leak: cracked tiles, loose grout, floor trap problems, vanity damage, waterproofing patches, toilet repair or leak-risk rectification.

Common bathroom repair contractor jobs

These are the wet-area issues where a contractor-style assessment is more useful than a single-trade quote.

Leak source and damp wall checks

Trace ceiling stains, wet corners, recurring dampness or suspected inter-floor seepage before deciding between repair and renovation.

Tile, grout and silicone repair

Patch cracked tiles, re-grout localised areas, remove failed silicone and re-seal joints around the shower, basin, vanity or WC.

Toilet and fixture repair

Fix running toilet, weak flush, loose bowl, leaking angle valve, bidet spray, shower mixer, tap set or bathroom accessories.

Vanity and cabinet rectification

Repair hinges, swollen panels, drawers, sink support, silicone joints and minor carpentry around wet-area fixtures.

Waterproofing patch route

Use patching when the affected area is localised. Full membrane redo is routed as renovation scope after site assessment.

Floor trap and drainage checks

Check smell, slow drainage, gurgling, floor trap choke or repeated pooling that may need plumber support.

What to send before quote

Photos and short video

Property and bathroom type

State HDB, condo, landed, shop or office, plus whether it is common toilet, master toilet or service yard toilet.

Leak history

Mention when it started, whether it happens only during shower use, and if the downstairs or upstairs unit is involved.

Must-do vs optional

Tell us whether you only need repair, or whether you are open to a partial or full bathroom renovation if repair is not reliable.

Bathroom repair contractor FAQ
