Hi Terry:
I have a dormer in my home that was built 9 years ago. There is an upstairs shower (stall, no tub). The leak started within 3 months of the dormer being completed. We had contractor back. He replaced shower base stating there was crack in it. Leak stopped temporarily but restarted again. This has been an intermittent problem over the past 9 years. The leak is in two different rooms downstairs. I have had 3 different plumbers to the house. None can figure out leak. I have towels placed outside the base when someone showers, so I know water isn't getting out that way. The last plumber I spoke with this morning said he doesn't believe it's a plumbing issue even tho this has been going on for years. I don't know what to do. The ceiling is open in the downstairs room where it leaks. There is a smell of mold coming from there. I don't know what to do. I can't seem to get a plumber to the house because they all feel it is not a pipe issue and rather a person showering issue. I'm at my wits end.
