Transcript:
Hey guys just let, we brought the trim back in so you can see this is very typical. It's nothing unusual. Water might have overflow from here or the shower came down from here. Some people stepping out from here.
The toilet could have overflowed to sink, kind of overflows. But when the water comes up here against this drywall, there's no caulking right here. It'll go underneath the trim and then hit that drywall and it will come up. And that's what you see right here. It's coming up the drywall and it stains the trim at the same time.
"It soaks into the drywall, right?"
Soaks into the drywall, comes up here quite often. You can literally see stains. And these have been painted over but it's been a while since it's had an issue. But you can have the evidence right there in front of you. And so what we're going to do, whenever we get through with all this, replacing the floor and everything we're going to caulk the front side and the top side of that trim. So and not that it's going to make it a pond in here, but it will stop it from running hitting the wall and wicking up.
And I recommend you do the same.
We put the trim in, resealed it. Now, this is important: we sealed at the bottom and the top of the trim. So if anybody steps out of here or splashes off, the shower comes down and we'll go behind that and it won't go underneath there.
