howdy I am new here! I was having 2 drum traps removed and replaced them with 2 new pvc p-traps yesterday. This is in my apartment building and while preparing to fix the drywall in the ceiling I started feeling drips of water hitting me in the head. After checking out the problem I have found that the unit directly overhead has a leak coming from behind the wall of the shower. Can see that it is definately coming from the diverter connection to the copper pipe, specifically the cold water inlet on the bottom of the connection for the cold water on/off handle. So i am wondering if I am gonna have to go in through the tile and drywall to fix the leak and dont know what to do! Any ideas? thanks alot-Jeff
ps- I cant get to the problem from underneath, do I need a new diverter or maybe pipe too or just fix the leak? Not familiar with plumbing so much. I think i could sauder it but i dont want this to explode and am not even sure if this type of connection is saudered in the first place thanks again!
