Discuss Shower Leaking into the kitchen in the Plumbing Jobs | The Job-board area at PlumbersForums.net

Thanks for the patronising reply when I was just trying to be helpful. Maybe I should have called myself something else rather than Vicdiy to avoid such an unfair comment. I may not be a professional but I have done loads of jobs at my own house and relatives ( for no charge) and they have all been done to a high standard. Tell me what is wrong with checking and replacing sealant every six months when it can leak and cause all sorts of damage. One of my daughter's recently moved into a new house and had a wet patch in the hallway, although the sealant around the shower looked fine this turned out to be the problem,it took me about an hour to rake it out and reseal what is unreal about that!
Hi vic, I was going to say post #23 puts it better but Dave has replied whilst I was away.
 
We are talking about sealing a shower tray aren't we ? I wouldn't dream of commenting on anything requiring professional knowledge.
Hi again vic, do it right once and it will not require checking every 6 months bud. That was the main stand out point and hence my post.

I really enjoy reading the posts and comments on this forum as I like to pick up knowledge from those that know better. I think in future I will just read and not bother commenting. I was a senior project manager involved in multi million pound projects but I do realise that there is no substitute for hands on practical experience.
