this was a post for another thread by pebs but some one closed it
don't get me started on plumbers:incazzato: I got a call from my mom this morning saying she had water dripping in the kitchen. She had called the plumber he came out had a quick look and said your son must have a pin hole in the grout or some thing:mad2:
i tried to tell them it was not possible i tanked it before and after fitting the wedi board and i used the wedi jointing silicone so there is no way it is a pin hole! but they would not have it so i cut the silicon out in the bottom corner and the water flooded out. There you go said Peat the leak you have a hole in the silicon :mad2: so i smashed the bottom tile out to see if i could find out how it was getting though the tanking. and there it was a drip drip drip off the tile above. Dose that look like an pin hole m8!:incazzato: but i was still confused how the water was getting past the tanking. Then he took the shower controls of and there was the leak and the answer to the question he had chopped the thanking away from around the pipes as he did not have them level when he first fixed them so the water was going down the front and the back of the wedi board :mad2::mad2::mad2: so now i have to rip it out and start again on Sunday. plumbers i'v s--- em!
