The option of removing the shower is defo not possible....cant afford to do it and dont have the expertise. The other option you talk of is get rid of what sealant is there in the corner and then reseal with loads of sealant? (Where the black bit of wall meets the white sealant???) But as a...

Ive attached a pic of the outside. But what is the point of that shadowy hole area on the inside of the shower where the trim is....like i cant find a reason for it being there. If water is going in there then surly its not helping? The water doesnt come out where the silicone is but actually...

hi In the picture...where the dark shadowy hole at the shower trackis im 100% sure (by doing water tests) that water is going in there and somehow escaping outside the shower enclosure and coming out onto the floor outside while showering What is the purpose of that hole where the track is...

Nope its not sealed internally I went and bought unibond translucent bathroom sealent. Can/should i go ahead and attempt to seal the exterior of the glass where it meets the metal trim? (where the water leaks out from)

Cheers for the reply. I know theres no pic yet but u reckon he should just go ahead and silicon the outside frame/glass bit with clear silicon? I think he doesnt want to redo anythin like sending the whole thing back if its a manufactuter problem.

Hi there Sorry im writing this for a friend who needs it answered and they sent the wrong picture! Will get the correct pic and re-load it tonight. They were wondering is the glass part which connects to the frame usually sealed on the outside? Its a victoria plumb shower.

apologies if this is in the wrong forum I have a new shower enclosure that was installed by a plumber but as the plumber is away on holiday for a few weeks I need a solution now For some reason this new shower enclosure leaks around where the window glass area meets the gold metal trim...

I just checked. I defo dont have a water meter

Why would the water meter be the culprit? How do i know if i have one? I dont think i do have one tbh

Yep the stoptap is fully open. My house is detached so didnt think it could be cos of my neighbours use of appliances

Water hammer even though my house is detached?

Ive had this issue for over a year now When theres no plumbing in use (no washing machine,heating, toilets, taps etc) i get random knocking vibrating type noises (u can feel the vibration when u hold it) from the stopcock under the kitchen sink. This is the mains stopcock for my detached 20...

anymore advice?

i turned off the stop tap and the kitchen tap doesnt let any water run but the downstairs bathroom which is mains connected still has a wee little dribble running thru the tap. does this mean the washer is broken?

forgot to mention that its a 16yr old detached housee. new taps recently installed but this sound happened with old taps too hot water cylinder and cold tank in loft system
