Leaking showerlay

[Qwerty]

No, that part is plastic. No metal on the showerlay. I've fitted countless numbers of them with no metal and no failures

I've just undone the drain. I could be wrong but I swear the metal is definitely part of the tray - the hole is an absolute perfect fit, it's bonded both to the plastic upper and it sits flush into the board when looking from the underside. Will email a couple more photos.

Can you email a pic from above.
i think you are correct with the metal plate. It is fitted to some. Has the square fitting that is bonded to the top of the tray been moved?
i usually make the trap up with a good quantity Silicon too.

How thick is that ply?

 

[evilmango]

Ply is 22mm. Trying to get some more photos uploaded.

Scrap that I just zoomed in. Its your seal thats leaking. There's two droplets formed on it. Trap not done up tight enough.

I have to say I'm confused. I have never ever seen or fitted any that have metal visible within the tray.

I personally never Silicon as the rubber compresses fully to make the seal.

Here are a few more photos he has forwarded to me...

Trap was absolutely bone dry when I took the photo. The water was definitely seeping from the edge of the ply.

Stupid question,
is it tiled yet?
if so, can you take a pic?

 

[Chalker]

How is it sealed round the edge of the square plastic round the grille?
