Pipe added to shower drain?
Hi. This is my preliminary question about this nightmare of a shower we live with! Any insight would be appreciated. Sympathy is nice too.
We have a fiberglass shower stall on the second story of the house. The drain sits higher than the floor of the shower leaving a constant puddle, even when it isn't leaking. So I hate it!
My husband, alloverlajolla, just informed me that the previous owners had a leak so they put a piece of pipe in the drain. I have no idea how that fixed anything. Well, he filled the gap with rope and silicone and plumber's putty!!
I can't seem to get anyone to fix this. Plumbers come out and say they'll get back to me but they never do. The remodeling guys get carried away and want to redo the whole bathroom.
So my first question is Can anyone imagine why they put the pipe in the drain in the first place?
