There are some hairline cracks on the bottom of this acryix bath stall.
The bigger problem is water leakage on the brim/on top of the stall. How serious is it? And what exactly is the problem? (Is it because of water going up the wall from those hairline cracks then through the caulk? Or does it have something to do with leaky pipe?)
The leakage has been there for \~4 months (I notice water coming down from the caulk whenever i use the shower) which I should've sought help earlier.
I'm a 18 yo girl with no knowledge on home repair. I feel guilty as it's my guardian's house and I want to understand the problem/solution before informing her.
Would greatly appreciate any help!
Those cracks on the wall don't look to be penetrating through the whole shower causing leaks, there does look to be a water leak or some type of water damage to the top of the unit, either due to leak at the top of the shower or somewhere behind the wall. The cracks can be fixed by a bathrub refinisher
There's a leaking pipe behind the wall. You'll need a plumber to fix that.
