Where is the leak coming from? I can see stains/ damage but what is the cause?

A shower leak starts from 1 of 5 sources.

    1. Failed waterproofing (also called the tray or membrane)
    2. Water leaking through holes in the wall around the pipes (tap spindles and rose)
    3. Leaking pipes or tap washers inside the wall cavity
    4. Leaking waste pipe (drainpipe) which can be the pipe or the waterproofing around the pipe
    5. Leaking shower screen (if leak gets outside the bathroom then the waterproofing has also failed)
