Leaking Shower Drain in a Modular Shower in Wendell

What the customer reported

A Wendell homeowner reported a leak in the shower drain.

What we found and did

Chris found the shower drain leak was likely due to wear and improper sealing in a modular shower unit, an issue that can cause water damage to surrounding areas if left unaddressed. He replaced the existing no-caulk shower drain with a new, properly sealing shower drain assembly to restore watertight function.

Result

After the new shower drain was installed, everything was working correctly.

Mini Splits Leaking by the Elevator Lobbies in Wendell

What the customer reported

Units were still leaking after an earlier visit, and the 3rd floor head was still not running. Two mini splits were leaking by the elevator lobbies.

What we found and did

On the first unit, Bernard and Manny found that the pump motor and solid-state sensors were working fine, but the unclamped vinyl lines were leaking under pressure. They secured all vinyl connections with hose clamps and leveled and secured the in-line condensate pump with electrical wire and refrigerant lines. On the second unit, water was overflowing the drain pan because of a missing reservoir/sensor assembly (empty control port), a clogged old tubing splice, and an un-adapted 3/8-inch drain line. They installed a new reservoir tank and digital sensor assembly, cut out the clogged splice, adapted the 1/4-inch pump ports to the 3/8-inch drain line with a reducing barb, and clamped all connections.

Result

The drain line on the first unit was no longer leaking, and automatic cycling was verified on the second unit.

FAQ

Leak Detection & Repair in Wendell: questions answered

Answered by our licensed technicians serving Wendell.

How do I know if I have a hidden leak?

Common signs include an unexplained increase in your water bill, the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, warm spots on the floor (slab leak), musty odors, or discoloration on walls and ceilings. If you suspect a leak, we can confirm it quickly with a pressure test.

How much damage can a small leak cause?

Even a pinhole leak can release 5 to 10 gallons of water per day. Over weeks or months, that leads to mold growth, structural wood rot, damaged insulation, and ruined drywall. Early detection saves thousands in repair costs compared to waiting until damage is visible.

Do you repair slab leaks, or do I need a separate contractor?

We handle the complete process: detection, repair, and pressure verification. For slab leaks, we offer direct repair through the concrete, tunnel-under access, and full reroute options. We discuss the pros and cons of each approach for your specific situation.

Will my homeowner's insurance cover leak damage?

Most policies cover sudden and accidental water damage but not gradual leaks or maintenance issues. We provide detailed documentation including photos, pressure readings, and repair descriptions that help support your insurance claim. We recommend filing promptly after discovery.
