Question:

dishwasher pipe leak near garbage disposal and sink hose elbow?

My darling wife, god bless her, put celery (a lot) down the garbage disposal. I snaked it, fixed it, done. Nope. Now the copper pipe that comes out of the sink hose elbow near the disposal that goes into the dishwasher hose is leakingand I can't see a way to fix it (it's threaded, but appears to be soddered on??) Is that possible? Any ideas how to fix the leak there? Thank you.

Answer:

its the pan/ drain. if it was in the line it would leak all the time. tile shower floor? grout condition? sealer? age of pan? if it is over the garage cut an inspection hole in the ceiling to check the structural damage from the water. put a fake a/c grill over it if you can't drywall or want an inspection panel for future use.
the fire department has ways to prove who`s fault it is. Or if it was an accident. if some one is to blame there is room for a law suit!
Was anything damaged or was anyone hurt? or do you wan't to sue for emotional distress? if someone was hurt or something was damaged, then maybe. Otherwise, get over it!
