We recently moved into our dream home which has become a little bit of a nightmare. It's concerning our master bathroom. The first time I used the Jacuzzi tub resulted in a leak that caused water damage to the ceiling in the garage (our master bathroom is right above our garage). Had plumber out, turns out the tub is the problem whether it's the filter, jets...who knows...the plumber doesn't fix Jacuzzi tubs. Had to removed most of the sheet rock and insulation to garage ceiling because of leak and also the plumber had caused a flood on bathroom room after testing tub and water sprouted everywhere. That caused more leakage to garage ceiling. Fast forward a week or two and we now have another leak which is coming from the shower. Had a different plumber out because first one flooded the bathroom. He said the shower was installed incorrectly. Something about the tile, the base....he said he can also see where there are old water stains. Anyway, looks like it's a re-do. We don't use the master bathroom anymore. Where and how do you begin to fix all this? Should we go the contractor route or go to a remodel construction place? And how can I be sure that when it's redone, it's done correctly? I'm sorry for all the questions, but the more advice and information anyone can give would be greatly appreciated. Like I said, we just moved to the area. Really don't know anyone well. We reached out to our realtor but she said she uses a person who isn't licensed and since she's a realtor, doesn't feel right about giving a non-licensed referral. Looking on line doesn't seem to be of much help. No reviews or poor reviews seems to be the theme.
