Good afternoon guys,

I was wondreing if anyone could help with the issue I have at home.

I have a MIRA offset quadrant shower (built around 3/4 years ago approx), and I am having leakings (see attached the photos). I have tried to put some silicone several times but the water is still going out somehow from where the wall connects to the tray and from where the tray connects with the enclosure, and I presume the floor is quite wet at this point.

I am no expert in removing the tray, so I was wondering if it would be better ask a plumber to come, lift the shower and try to get it installed properly or change shower straight away and ensure whoever comes and installs it does it in a proper way.

I was wondering if I could get some ideas, so I don't spend a lot of money on this!

Many thanks

What’s your seal around the tray like in the corner screen end ?

Thanks for your response mate. We are using the Diall silicone for Bathrooms & Kitchens (attached a couple of photos).

I am just worried because from downstairs we can see some marks of water on the ceiling which worries me (the water is coming from the leaking of the shower).

I am just thinking if it should be better to replace the shower and get a new one with an installation, or just hire someone to lift the shower, and install the same one but in a better way!

Thanks guys!

You did silicon around the tray ?
 
You’ve done it good enough sounds like it’s tracking from somewhere
 
Chances are lifting it / removing it could damage it you could ask someone to try and you’ll accept the responsibility if it breaks etc or just get new chances are tiles might be Damaged either way tho
