Hi all, For a rental home, tenant says bathroom floor keep getting wet, even though it is small amount. at first, they thought they dropped some water. after wiping water, however, it keep coming back and now they think there is some water leak. my plumber went to check and found no issue with bath sink. he thinks it must be shower leak. the shower was redone last year by a contractor, who i ended up firing since he did not show up to work later. anyway, i hired water damage restoration (Servpro) company to check how much damage there is now. unfortunately, based on my research, it is very hard to find source of shower leak. i am thinking of rebuilding shower. i hired a kitchen remodel contractor and he gave me two options; either fix shower pan only, or (optionally) rebuild shower as well.

That makes the steps look nice, but they do stand out as different.I prefer tile for bathrooms since they are more at risk of getting wet and having sitting water.
