Not necessarily the shower pan (Score:1)

I'm an avid "This Old House" watcher and they've added a show called "Ask This Old House" where they do routine repairs. Anyway, I seem to remember a show where Rich Trethewey, the plumber, went out on a similar house call. He checked all the normal drain things, but the leak remained. It turned out it was in the shower valve, not the drain at all.

This didn't make sense since it only occurred when people were showering. Why wouldn't it leak all the time if it was in the input lines? He had some explanation. Anyway, while things are open, you may want them to check it out. Be a shame to replace the ceiling and floor and have it leak again.

Hey, I actually found the episode! Ask This Old House [thisoldhouse.com]
