We installed a new shower stall and caulked around the bottom inside the stall twice now and it continues to pucker and come unattached. We have given it sufficient time to dry and felt dry to touch,etc. This leak is causing the wall outside about 1" in diameter to become wet and can feel it coming through to the wall from the shower. Do anyone have any suggestions as to what more we can do to stop this leak before it becomes a bigger problem.

Thank you.

Open the wall from the back side of unit; sounds like the water damage might be coming from a leaking faucet that you are not aware of or the trim pieces are allowing the water to get behind the unit and run down the back side.
