another very enjoyable video, I got a little nervous when U got to the end tightening of the spout, and it wasnt lined up ….whew.
Many helpful tips. Like the way you work, black is black,white is white, no gray area in your work ethics. what ya see is what ya get. short and to the point!
Fantastic Job, Period Thank you for the learning; experience will come when I feel confident enough to undertake something like this
Steve, I got a fiberglass tub and shower, back to back. Would that big escutcheon plate work on fiberglass? thanks, keep up the great videos!!
Why did you not take the shower valve apart before you solder pipes you may have burn the inside it
I learn something new from each video I watch, makes my plumbing jobs a whole lot easier. You are one of the best
Plumber, A/C guys out there.
Good job 👍🏾
Could you wet the paper with a spray bottle first before soldering-!? Regardless nice install.
Dude you have the grossest jobs.
Like how you left that extra-long bathtub filler pipe so they could still use the bath while the tile-man did his job.
And what is your large, temporary wall covering? Masonite/hard-board?
u dont use electric welder for cupper? the paper dint will burn
i like ur pipecutter,we dont have this ones here,,u need to send one over here
home visits are best i like them usually you have to be respectufl where others live
Would you have any problem with Shark-bites in that wall ? And I must say , you solder in
places most mortal men would run from …
gut everything ! Replace it "all"
why on the shower valve is the tub spout a male thread and all the rest are solder joints?
try a wide chisel, Steve. Like 4" wide.
that twist was on purpose–to save money.
the tall tales that tub could tell if that tub could talk.
i have a shower that is currently getting fixed but there is some how a water leak that makes all the eater come from under the restroom tile and from under the walls what type of leak could it be we recently opened the bottom where the drain is and theres no leak there could it be the pipes that are in the wall thats making the leak ??
From the look of that place you would have done the guy a favor if it burned down.
I'm only 7 minutes into this video and I am already laughing Steve. This is better than your "Toilet From Hell" video!!!! The drywall falls behind the tub. The stud wall looks like a bunch of ice cream bar sticks put together, obviously reworked in the past. That pretzel plumbing is funny. How the hell did someone do this to the plumbing? Trying to straighten it? It does not make sense. Are you sure you want to do this work? Edited at 8 minutes. A union on the shower head line? Most of the time (for 40 years) if I solder in tight places, I take a spray bottle of water and douse the areas behind the work. I do that until I am comfortable the stuff is beyond damp. My biggest fear is the heat of a torch travels up and will collect at the top of whatever enclosed cavity you are soldering in, unseen.
I like your little trick on using a plastic tube to get the water out of the pipe.
