You have no choice in this matter. Your worker, he couldn't be a plumber that did this, lef your customer with a direct open connection between the city sewer and his house. That's where the bad smell comes from. Tear the shower base out and do the job right by code. And be very glad the customer don't sue the pants off you for creating and then leaving a hazrdous situation inhis home. Good luck, Tom
