Hi
My shower has started leaking through the ceiling. I've pulled away the panels under the shower tray and it is leaking from the waste pipe at the compression join to a T-joint.
The guy who put it in basically tried to build a fall so that all the waste entering the T-joint from the shower and basin wastes run in one direction. I think that this has stressed the joint causing the O-ring to deform and be unable to form an effective seal. It has only been installed 2 weeks but he is claiming that he tested for leaks so it's something I've done and he is now not taking my calls.
I'm wondering if there is some king of liquid sealant I can whack around the O-ring before tightening it up or even putting silicon around the O-ring before tightening.
Can anyone advise?
