Shower Leak Troubleshooting For Finding Your Water Leak!

What happens here

Move down to the shower valve trim plate. For a Jacuzzi-style valve, carefully rotate the discussion piece (the outer ring of the trim plate) to detach it from the wall. This will expose the shower valve cartridge and the surrounding area. Note any existing silicone sealant that may have been applied and inspect its condition. With the valve exposed, divert water to the showerhead and inspect the internal components for any dripping, moisture, or signs of a leak.
