so I stuffed new DRY insulation back in the hole, put the toilet back , when we shower in the Morning I will see just where the water is coming from.

We have Talked about redoing that bath room for a while , so we are going to start getting Quotes this next week .

I have been afraid this was going on for some time , and it has !

Man, that sucks zip. :(

Water is brutal.
Your new bathroom is gonna be awesome though, good luck.

Thanks , lets see how this turns out

Or nail the door shut and deny everything.;)

No Can Do Bruce , its MY bath room , and the Only shower in the House

Ooh, serious business then. Code blue, top priority, money is no... well maybe a little, object. :haha:

Plumbing problems suck! I hope you get to the bottom of yours Zip.

Pssst Why is there a timer in your bathroom? :eyebrow:

Man, this is my #1 house problem too, right now. (#2, 3, 4 and 5 are almost as terrible)

Except I know where the water is coming from: the tile in the shower has gone so bad, with so many cracks in the caulking, that it all has to be redone, along with whatever is behind it! And duct tape is no longer a reliable fix.

yuck good luck Zip

On the bright side, at least you noticed the leak when you did. If you hadn't noticed it for another couple years when the toilet fell through the rotten floor, you might be replacing that whole corner of the house.

It looks like a cute bathroom now. Just wait until your done.
I'm sorry for you now but knowing you'll get something nice at the end of it should be a comfort to you.

oops did I just call a 'man bath' cute!:eek:

plumbing is right up there with nuclear winter for things that suck.

good luck, zip!

ain't homeownership grand?

I've showered in that bathroom.

Monnie broke it! It was Monnie!
