    Hi all

    The shower upstairs has just started leaking into our living room.

    Does anyone know of a good and reasonably priced plumber in the Naas/Kildare area that would be able to call out?

    Many thanks in advance!

    Does the leak only appear after the shower has been used?

    Yes that seems to be the case, this morning is the first time it happened. As soon as the shower was turned off and water drained from the basin (it has been taking longer than usual to drain ye past few days along with the toilets in the ensuite and main bathroom upstairs not really flushing, downstairs toilet flushes ok) the dripping of water into the living room stopped.

    We bought the house last year and we did not what appeared to be a faint line and tiny filled hole in the living room ceiling, at the exact same spot where the leak started this morning, so guessing the previous owners must have had a problem also and some sort of repair job was done previously.

    9/10 times its not a water pipe leak. So relax a bit. The leak will only continue when the shower is on. If your still uneasy try get somebody today. In my experience its usually a tiny gap in the tiles or the seal that joins the tiles to the tray. Sorry but I don't know anybody in your area

    Thanks guys for the replies so far, very much appreciated.
    We were also thinking it was waste looking at the colour, along with the fact that the toilet is not flushing in the same bathroom, thought it might bit of a coincidence.
    Anyway here is a pic of the shower tray..
