Okay I have a small leak in my shower.


Back about three months ago or so, Roy and I went to Home Depot and bought some washers to repair my shower. Now at the time I was thinking I should replace the sit too. But they didn't have the correct one. So we just replace the washers. At that time it came apart pretty easy. 
Okay I will replace both the sit and washers this time. 
About a week or so, I was talking with Roy, telling him I have a small leak again. He said, he has both of his showers leaking. He told me, hey we are not paying for the water by the meter. So leave it alone. You might have get into more than you want? 


I started pulling harder and harder. GUESS WHAT HAPPEN??? That is correct, the PVC pipe broke at three different places. There was nothing holding the water valves in place. So everything broke off. 
Mean while before I even tried to take it apart, I turned all the water off. By God's grace. 






Well now what? Did you look and see where the pipes are? Not a easy place at all to get to. 


I went over and asked for Roy's helping ideas. We both looked and said, the one wall is needed to come out. Come on??? So we got the wall out and did the work and put it all back together again. 
that was the hardest part. Remember I redid that bath room about five months ago.





You can see it is even some what reinforced. It only has a couple of screws in a 1x2 board. But it should not push thought. The screws are in dry wall. 







Repainted it and it doesn't leak. The sad part was I had to finish this today, so I could take a shower before I went to work at 6 pm. 
By His grace it works and no leaks. Praise Him.
