Hi all. Shower is leaking into downstairs when water is being aimed at wall . All sealant has been redone on outside and between shower tray and wall at the bottom on inside , can’t spot any leakages here. It runs down the wall downstairs beneath shower in lines , when water is sprayed at the...

Hi all, I have a couple of leaks coming under shower tray downstairs. One is along the wall so think might be joint between wall and tray and the other seems to be near waste tray, there is a slight hairline crack in shower tray near waste . This happens when I leave the shower head near the...

Hi all, Getting an internal leak circled in pics started at bottom and then rose over time. Happens when rains heavy, have just had windows done so know it isn’t that. And started when we had other older windows in , hence why ruling that out. My suspicion is it is the lack of mortar in...

Hi foxhole ,thanks for response , it started when we had old windows in? Could this still be the case ?

Hi all, Getting an internal leak circled in pics started at bottom inside and then rose over time. Happens when rains heavy, have just had windows done so know it isn’t that. My suspicion is it is the lack of mortar in between bricks on outside circled.( thinking mainly from the one at the...

Hi all , Kitchen bi fold door is delaminating at where it is opened , tried gluing. Is it better to have this laminate took off and have it primed and painted by a company Any ideas ? Thank you

Or potentially the pipe being too short and the washer has fallen out along with seal , will test when home

Hopefully the washer is in there denso , like you said , or it is non existent haha!

Hey CBW, sorry yeah just seen it , makes sense what you are saying, like I was saying to denso, I think the nut has been put on wrong way

Yes that makes sense denso, thanks , I think whoever put it in initially did it wrong way haha ?

Hey CBW and denso13, thanks for advice. I agree with above, however on the waste pipe the compression fitting is attached to there is nothing for it to secure onto like the video above if that makes sense? should it not have something like the picture below to screw into , or can I just move...

Hi all, Bit of advice needed. Waste water pipe from bathroom sink came loose last night caused some water damage to ceiling below. My question is the brown pipe seems to have came loose, but seems to have just been pushed into thread above.There is nothing holding it in place, is this...

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, There is two hairline cracks around the waste of our shower tray, shower is less than a year old. Is this a concern,as in water could get in crack? Or what could have caused this ? Will it need a a new tray or any other fix? Any advice would be much appreciated Attached is where...
