          If your base is made of fiberglass, you can contact a company that repairs them. They can inject a compound underneath the base to support it.

            I’ve heard of concrete being piped under showers and tubs but I’m not certain this is considered a good practice.

              Hello, This is a common problem with older tub/shower units. They can however be repaired in place in just a few short hours ready to use the next day,if not that night. The cost of this is much cheaper than the replace cost. You can find a tub repairman in the phone book , plumbing supply houses or plumbers may be able to help you locate one in your area. You can check out glas-tech.com It has information and free tips on it, some are no brainers and some might surprise you. Good luck!
