I have a fiberglass shower on a second floor that has sprung a leak - see photos below. What do I need to do to correct this problem?
The lock-ring that is visible from the top of the shower reads:
Caspers Industries Oakland CA
No. 101-PS
ABS IAMPO
Use glue only. Warning: Do not use oil base sealant or overheat caulking material or overtighten lock nut. May cause drain to break or destroy.
I did a search, and it looks like that drain is now made by Oatey.
If a repair is possible, how do I proceed? I am handy, but have not done a shower drain before. The tub drains I have done were pretty straightforward, where as this one with the glued on lock-ring has me wondering how you compress the gaskets to prevent leakage.
Any guidance would be appreciated.
