Hi all,
I've recently bought a house. I noticed the shower tray in the em suite had dropped a fraction tearing the seal. I took of the facia to have a look and see if I could adjust one of the riser legs. I've found that the shower tray legs are supported on what appears to be some half nice chip board, with a hold cut out for the pipe work. Ok not a massive surprise.
However what was a surprise to me is what's under the board, nothing. The cause of the drop was that one corner of the wood had flexed and now wet just snapped/rotted away.
This lets me see down into empty space, the space between this floor and the living room below. Now that doesn't sound great to me!
What's the drill in this situation? How do you go about dealing with this? And what can I expect to pay a friendly local tradesman for it?
