Hi all.
I am in desperate need of help. My husband is a carpenter (master) by trade and incredibly good at what he does......most of the time.
He built a shower for me. He put down rubber sheet on floor and poured concrete on top of that. He got plenty of slope in it ( I think), but the damn thing leaks in one corner. I have done everything I can think of to do. Specialty sealers, swimming pool stuff over grout. It will stop it for a short while, and it starts again.
I mentioned recently having a professional come in and re-do it. He hit the roof. But its been leaking for a couple of years, it's going to turn into a major issue at some point if not already!
I can't get him to re-do it. I guess he does it all day and doesn't want to come home and do it.
I need something that I can do to fix it.
I have been researching epoxy waterproof coatings etc. I don't have to re-do the whole shower do I? I'm not physically able to do that. I'm hoping to find something that I can get in a color to somewhat match my tile in shower and basically paint it on shower floor and maybe 8-10" up the wall. He also built a seat in it for me.
Please help! I can use his shower to allow mine to dry completely, I just NEED - want to get this fixed.
I did try a clear coating of some type he brought home, its awful. Makes my tiles look stained with soap scum and I've been working to get that all off. Have a ways to go yet.
I am disabled and it takes me a while to get things done, but I really want to fix this. Any suggestions???
