Cross thread , Yes agree potentially might be this. I have a feeling that the plumber who installed tray has just put it straight onto chip board , rather than 18ml ply and no sand and cement. Then it has cracked at weakest point near plughole,due to lack of support. Think I’m going to get a...

Yes Madrab sounds like a good shout to investigate further , thank you

I do know the old shower tray that was there previously was on wooden like beams to raise it off the floor So like you said even if it has been cemented in , shouldn’t have been out straight onto subfloor It it had been raised off floor and given support underneath with beams etc , this...

The person would stand quite close to it as it is close to the waste where person would stand. The previous shower was on a higher level on wooden shims , this shower tray has been directly installed onto the subfloor and not raised , not sure if it was cemented etc. I do know where the waste...

With above could it be because no bed of cement etc under tray to support shower tray potentially?

Hi all was resealing up vc trim on inside window. Think when I have been removing old sealent with a blade ,I have damaged some of the window casing and left a little gap. Are they manufactured with a slight gap where I ha e highlighted or is it due to the damage caused by me when removing...

Hi all , just a bit of advice needed. Currently having windows fitted , should the screws at the bottom of the frame and side of the frame been siliconed before screw went in? And would the screws be able to come out and silicone put in before screw goes back in to make it watertight. Just...

Hi all , Have a slight weeping leak on the underside of where soil pipe meets the tee join (seems like a little gap), at bottom ,after toilet upstairs is flushed ,highlighted area is in yellow leaking. Hard to remove it seems tight , can I just get away with putting some ct1, fernox lsx or...

Hi madra,just worth mentioning the main spile pipe/stack external one ,is in the other bathroom,or does this not matter? It would still be a waste pipe to stack either way?

So when the taps are turned on , it leaks at join ? Whereas when it comes from the toilet it goes straight out so no leak.Yeah makes sense to be fair. It isn't boxing in , it is a stud wall,but hopefully can gain access via ceiling below. Will inform plumber , thanks for the advice Nitro ,much...

Waste for sink is last 3 pics

Waste from toilet is circled in first pic

Pics attached

Waste from sink potentially may go to same waste pipe as toilet , and leaks down wall when taps are on. Doesn't leak when flush toilet. Have attached more pics of where toilet is and sink. Leak on underneath ceiling is below toilet.

Hi Nitro, thank you for the advice. Directly above where leak is ,is a toilet and waste pipe,so would make sense. Not sure as to why water runs down wall when taps are turned on though? Would the waste pipe do that more when taps are turned on from the sink , which is on other side of room...
