Here's a link to several pix of a nasty situation in my (only)
bathroom.



I am scared to death that there is a leak somewhere in the wall which
is showing up at the base.

Background: *Some years ago the latch on the shower went bad, and
water leaked out in this area. *So I replaced the latch. *Shower is
used by another person, so I just now checked to make sure it closed
tight, and it does, and OP is aware of this. I got in the shower,
turned on the water, but did not see any leakage through shower door.

Any idea what could be causing this, and what I need to do?

TIA

I can't see the pictures (tinypic is blocked at work).

Is it a tile shower or a fiberglass unit?

I've seen grout go bad and allow water to leak behind the wall in
between the tiles. The grout *looks* OK on the surface, but the water
can go right through it. DAMHIKT

And of course, any spot where the caulking has deteriorated will also
allow water to leak through, often unseen by the user until everything
behind the wall gets saturated and the water begins to find its way to
a visible location.
