I have a leak under my bathtub. At first thought it was the drain, replaced it and saw that the water was actually coming up from under the dirt under the slab. Is it possilbe to repair this myself? Also, can I run the drain pipe over head?

Yes and no! Yes you repair it yourself and no you can't run a overhead drain line,
You're going to hafta dig down and locate the leak. Get back to me with the material the pipes are made of and where the leak is and we'll start a repair. Regards, Tom

Are your hot and cold supply lines also buried in this same area? This doesn't necessarily sound like a leak in the drain.

Don't forget the possibility of ground water guys
