Hi all. My 8-9 years old house already have leak at the toilet. It's affecting the opposite side of the wall.
The contractor gave us 2 suggestion.
1. Just do external piping. Easy. - wife don't want
2. Hack the tiles to try to find the leak. Problem is i contacted the tiles supplier they don't produce those tiles anymore. So it will be weird if I use a different tiles on some spot.
You guys face this situation before?
Are there any smarter way to do it? Or maybe different tiles design solution?
Thanks.

Hence i hacked and replace it with nearest pallette of color Likely on the wall. Damn sien. Stupid contractor never change all the old pipe for me last time when I did the MAJOR renovation. So now scratching my head how to do it creatively.
