    Leak around bathtub drain
    There is a pin size hole by the drain of the tub which causes a ring around the ceiling in the garage and the tub is on the 2nd floor. My mother was to remodel the whole thing and she keeps getting an estimate of 3,000 dollars. Is there a way to fix this problem for a small cost. I haven't been able to use for a whole year.

    There sure is. And for a lot cheaper then 3000 bucks. There are tub repair kits out there for any type of bathtub but before we can help we have to know what type of tub we're talking about. Is this a steel. Plastic, or cast iron tub? Regards, Tom

Leak from bathtub drain [ 4 Answers ]
