I repaired a shower pan this summer for some people that had thier shower redone the previous year by someone else .I was told that it had leaked since the remodel .So I do the work requested and there was still water leaking from under the floor tile to the carpet.It turned out that the guy DID NOT REPLACE the WAX RING so with every flush water would go under the floor tile instead and to the carpet .finding the true leak can be tricky ,good luck
