Leaking Tub and gopher under slab
HELP!! Our bathtub shower has started leaking and the water is running into our sons room onto his carpet. His room is located next to the bathroom, but not next to the pipes! The plumber is stumped! He cut a hole in our daughter's wall (which is next to the bathroom and the pipes in the tub). He discovered that her wall was filled with dirt from a gopher! He dug out a wheel barrell FULL of dirt! YUCK! Anyway, he had tested the shower before that and it didn't leak! Then he tested it again and watched for leaks in the pipes and it didn't leak! Our daughter has showered in there 2 nights now and it hasn't leaked again! We don't know what to think! The times it did leak last week, it got our son's carpet and padding soaked! We had to dry them out with fans. It also leaked a little bit in the vanity area of the bathroom, which is adjacent to his room. We think it might have just come in from his room. We don't know which end is up - and neither does the plumber - any ideas or suggestions would be much appreciated! Thanks! p.s. this tub is all one piece kind and house built in 1978, if this helps any.
