I have a shower unit which has been problematic from the start, with regular pipe work leaks requiring expensive remedial work. I’m considering replacing it with a bath and a removable side panel . The idea being that any problems with leaks can be detected and remedied earlier. The shower is in a rental property and currently due to a leak I have been quoted £2000 to reinstate the shower tray after sealing any leaks and making good any defective pipe work and replace the rotten floorboards.
I’d welcome any comments on this plan ( bath to replace shower unit) or any other suggestions. I want to ideally remedy the situation long term not keep patching up. Thank you.
