Hello,
We have just re-tiled our bathroom and had a power shower fitted over our plastic bath. And yes, you've guessed it - the blo*dy shower's leaking. It seems to be leaking down the side of the bath and is so bad that it is wetting the floorboard, leaking through into the living room ceiling then onto the carpet!
Anyway, we've tried re-grouting / new silicone sealant to no avail. And we're too busy with our jobs etc to try anything else now. The insurance company has agreed to pay for new floorboards and ceiling as long as we sort out the leak, so now we want to get someone in to have a look and fix the problem before getting a plaster in to do the ceiling.
So my question is a) any miracle answers that we can try before getting someone in and b) what kind of person do we get in?! Plasterer? Builder? Decorator? Can someone sort out the leaking AND re-do our floorboards / ceiling? And what if they re-seal etc and it still leaks: can I tell them that I am paying for the problem to be fixed so won't pay if it still leaks?
Many thanks, Tracy
