I had a plumber here who deemed it leak free and recommended regrouting. Does anyone have any recommendations on who to call? New to town and couldn't find anything in the phonebook. Thanks a lot!!!

Be careful as you can get someone who will just smush new grout around. It will look good but will leak. What you need to do is to scrap out most of the old grout, then re-grout. More labor than knowledge. If you are into sweat equity, I can show you how to do the job, then you do the work.   Elizabeth Citizen Username: Elizabeth Post Number: 203 Registered: 7-2002 Posted on Saturday, July 12, 2003 - 7:03 am:        He's baaack!
