    Upstairs shower leaking into downstairs dining room ceiling
    I currently have a leak coming from my upstairs shower. How do I go about finding where it is leaking from without cutting a hole in my dining room ceiling. Is it possible to go through the attic in my closet?

    I had the same problem, a plumber removed the front of the shower revealing a screw inside which needed to be tightened. It took 2 minutes to do. Good luck
