Hello everyone,
I have another post which more or less helped determine there is a leak in my shower floor: http://www.plumbingforums.com/forum/f9/yet-another-shower-drain-leak-3629/
After looking, I found the original pictures I took of each step of the shower floor build, but cant see any problem. Based on the pictures below, do you see anything obviously wrong? The reason I am primarily asking, is I will probably have to get this shower floor removed and rebuilt and am trying to learn what was done incorrectly.
Order of what was done:
Oh, and any ballpark on how much its going to cost me to redo this, would be appreciated. Luckily, I still have matching tile (adequate enough) to rebuild just the shower area.
Thanks!

Order of what was done:
- Built frame/pony wall, and ledge for entry.
- Layed down tar paper to seperate cement from wood
- Put in 'dry-packed' cement with appropriate slope
- Put down Oatey Liner
- Put down Concrete Board
- Tiled/Grouted
