Great repair! Of course the power line was running right through there. There's always something unexpected like this!
I know. They made the drop so long to the spot that that I would have wanted a winged el for the spout anyway. It just could have been easier. Thank you.
Brian, if you need a spare inspection mirror, Dollar Tree has them for $1.25.
Your repair went well. Years ago, i remodeled a home For a landlord, and i gutted two mobile homes for anything they would let me remove from the inside. I got the cabinets, the countertops (kitchen and bath), the paneling, lumber from interior walls, not load bearing, light switches, boxes, wiring, breaker box, etc.
The kitchen in the rental house was the worst. It had metal cabinets and a cast iron single bowl sink, so my friend's boys and I took everything out of the kitchen, right down to the floor. We did leveler, put the cabinets and countertops in, the landlord bought a fridge and a kitchen stove, added the china cabinet from one of the mobile homes, added a small pantry, and it turned out really well.
I removed the fuse box, upgraded to the breaker box, whent with the decora switches, and put new light fixtures in the whole house. This house was from the early 20th century, so at one time it had gas lights in it, that were converted to electricity.
All told, it took me two months of work, but at the end, i found out that the LL didn't have a work permit for the job.
The water pipes under the kitchen were extended to the back of the kitchen, so i used pool noodles for insulation. Red for hot snd blue for cold. The sewer pipe from the sink had an electrical sweep on it at the back of the kitchen, in case it ever got clogged. They didn't have PVC sweeps for sewer yet, but it passed code in that the inspector didn't see sny grey under the house, as it had a dirt crawl space, and he didn't look back there.
I’m man that sounds like a project. I don’t like shooting video on big projects I’m finding. May be different once I only have one job. I will remember that about the inspection mirror. Thank you.
Oh man. Man ohh man... I began my bathroom remodel due to 3 leaks I found in my downstairs bathroom LAST April. I'm just about ready for drywall installation as of earlier today. Its been one rabbit hole after another!
Watching you make short work of this fix in no time was great, and i admire your skills a lot.
Great job!
Really nice job! Always looks easier than it really is. Also, very smart to run some water with the cartridge out! I'm surprised how many people don't do that. With the modern cartridges, some of the passageways are really small and can get plugged up easily with tiny pieces of solder or debris. Have a great day!
Thank you. It was a bit more than I like to do these days for videos. Maybe if this every becomes a full time thing we can do bigger stuff.
Thanks for sharing Brian I know your friend is thrilled with the job you done. Take care and have a great rest of the weekend 👍
Thank you Britt. They are very happy about this being done. Hope you have a great weekend as well.
Good stuff
Thank you.
new showerhead would probably work with tape if you remove the washer. I put in a moen shower valve kit a few years ago and they had to send me a replacement showerhead twice before one actually worked, so I guess it's par for the course these days. (nothing but the best quality plastic right?)
Yeah I was not impressed. That is one way I did not try.
@@ThatFixItGuy manufacturer will send a free replacement with no hassle if you just ask. they know they're crap lol
Pfister is the same. Cheaper to keep replacing than to have any quality control on manufacturing.
Looks great! 👍🏻
It turned out very nice. Thank you.
i remodeled my whole bathroom to change the color LOL
Very good video, but It's a good idea to pressure test the new plumbing tree you installed for several hours to be sure it doesn't leak before putting the drywall back in place. I would have tried a better washer on the new shower head or maybe even some sealant. They don't make things very well anymore. It seems to be an after effect of the pandemic.
Totally good to pressure test. I did have nipples on it before all the trim went on. I don’t the dry wall will go in for a while still as well. Hard to line people up these days.
@@ThatFixItGuy I understand. I had a water damage problem in my kitchen. It took me six months to get it fixed. Finding someone to rebuild the cabinets was very very tough. It was holding everything else up. I did find someone by thinking outside the box. Most cabinet guys were booked out for a long long time.
What if there isn’t any access to the back of the shower…would i have to remove the tiles and sheet rock from inside the shower……….
Unless code prohibits it, I have been using pex for several years now, easier for the plumber and cheaper for the customer
Very true. It would have been easier. The material is a bit more, but we swapped work so I did not mind. Plus I don’t solder much anymore so it was nice.
If something chewed that wire and couldn't you get electrocuted by the water going through there
You could if it was touching or a hole for sure. It is not touching the electrical at all though. The angle makes it look like it.
?How much conversion cost
Would have been less if done in pex as well. I think you could get this done for a G or less. Always looks for 1 man shops
Over my skill level, but thanks.
Your welcome. I know that is not for everyone
So are you trying to entertain…? educate…? That was painful
It was a lot. This was neither of those things. This was helping a friend out that was in a jam.
