@literary Did you know Patagonia is headquartered in my town? The employees are allowed to take off and surf whenever the conditions are optimal. :-)
It will never not be weird to me to approve an invoice that exceeds three times my annual salary.

WELL.
We called a plumbing company we've used before and trust, and asked them to give us a second opinion. Turns out the problem is not a hole in the P-trap, but that the pipe has become disconnected from the shower drain. And he thinks there's no problem with the insulation, which is drying out, or with mold. Nor does he think there's an issue with the gas line.
So I may not have a disaster on my hands after all.
So…our little plumbing adventure yesterday with the water heater got more complicated. When checking all the connections, the installer noticed that we may have an almost-undetectable gas leak where the gas line comes up from under the house and splits to feed the furnace and the water heater. So, he crawled under the house to take a closer look…and found that we have a hole in the P-trap for the shower drain in the master bath, and that we've effectively been draining water under the house for God knows how long. And it's done a number on the insulation under the subfloor, too, which is damp. Which could possibly mean mold.
Can I scream now?
