It's the upstairs shower.
There were suspicious new spots on our kitchen ceiling and after a few
days of watching the spots in time to whether or not the washer was
going or the shower, we've figured out it's the shower.

WHICH MEANS when we replaced the shower head, we twisted something
loose. Great.

How do we know for absolute sure?
Well, John Weiland built these fabulous little alcoves into his
bathrooms for shampoo and soap and whatnot about chest height under the
shower head. When the shower is turned on, it drips into the alcove. The
caulking is split on the edge and it's coming right through. Which of
course means it's coming from inside the wall.

Good news is it's a new leak. We only just replaced the shower head a
month ago. So I'm not going to fuss about replacing the kitchen ceiling.
With the very dry heat in this house and as cold as it is, I think it
will dry up with no problem as long as we don't run the water in there
of course.

My question is of course - what are my options?
I suppose we have to tear the tile down.
Can we get tile loose without breaking all of it? It's very good tile.
Very thick.
Is it possible to re-use it?

<sigh>

Well, I was looking for a project to relax me ...

Cheers,
Erika
