When my General Contractor, Peter LaRoque, was here last weekend to continue investigating the leak issue, he also corrected the shaky shower control in the southwest bathroom upstairs, the one serving the bedroom on the parking lot side of the house.
It turns out that the original plumbing subcontractor, Mel Jones (who has gone out of business), used rather a cheap plastic clip to hold the control and pipes to part of the framing, and it had snapped. Pete used heavy-duty panduit plastic ties and he didn't have to cut into the wall or dislodge any tile to get it properly secured again.
One more thing to check off the list!
