My bathroom floors don't seem to have a waterproof layer before the tiles were laid on. I think the house was built in the 80s and don't know if that was the normal way of doing things. So when the tile grout is worn away which is happening too frequently under the shower area, water will seep through the concrete/cement and the water will drip from the ceiling on the floor below.

Instead of re-applying grout (using water resistant grout from pye). Should I apply some sort of penetrating sealer and some sort of waterproof top coat to seal the grout lines?

Or does grout sealer help to protect the grout so that it doesn't get worn away too quickly?

Hi,

I got a leak into my bathroom from the RC slab above, for a linked house. May I know roughly how much is the market price if I want to do a proper waterproofing from the top?

....

Thanks

Check what is above, in my case it was the bathroom and all that is needed is to reapply the grout lines which is very cheap.
