Hi, All:
I'm new to the forum and to the city too. Just moved in to a house built in 1998 several months ago. The carpet next to master shower right corner has water damage. After lift the carpet up I found out that the wood under the carpet is black. So the leak has been there for a while and too bad the inspector didn't catch it before we bought the house. The damage area is not big just around the corner between shower and tub.
The inspector did find moisture behind the shower title wall because there was a cracked title on the wall. It was repaired before we moved in. After we moved in my husband did caulk serveral times. But time to time we still find it's leaking. Tonight after I took a shower it's leaking again. I am really frustrated.
What shall I do? How to find exactly where it's leaking? Or shall I just call Mr handyman to do the job?
Any suggestion or advice will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
