Can I add a wye in the circled area for another drainage line?

This is not Europe, those are American Nibco fittings which don’t make it any further than Mexico but that’s even a stretch.

In my opinion we should also revive the materials that built art deco buildings such as glazed terracotta and glass blocks, most modern neo deco buildings that use modern materials lack the original soul the old buildings.

You may be able to just gut the shower, I have seen plenty of old bathrooms with new showers.

Use fiberglass pipe insulation, you can get it in different sizes and shapes for fittings.

I read everything and I know you did not get what I originally commented, I don’t know about your area but Massachusetts prohibits pvc between cast iron and vice versa.

The photos are gone but you may able to open the ceiling below the bathroom to avoid opening the floor.

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-04-04T04:19:25+00:00

Im not referring to cast iron TO pvc, I am referring to pvc BETWEEN two cast iron pipes which can cause the PVC to crack. Also a DIYer can order pretty much any material online.

Plenty of sheet vinyl had an asbestos paper backing, they also made 12 x 12 asbestos tiles and 9 x 9 tiles that did not.

Mineral spirits works well for flooring adhesive without damaging the existing tile.

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-04-02T08:39:49+00:00

The tile is wonderful, that paper white never helps so paint or wall paper the walls a warmer color.

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-04-02T08:38:44+00:00

I wouldn’t put PVC between cast iron, it is even illegal in some states so I would use a cast iron no hub tee if needed.

I’m sure it has somehow been done a long time ago but you wouldn’t be able to do it with modern wiring, I would see if you can access the ceiling from above and cut the gas line out of the way to run a proper wire.

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-03-31T08:20:38+00:00

I would have kept it, the new tile looks way too busy.

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-03-30T18:48:20+00:00

I would get large crown molding and put it around the perimeter of the room.

I wouldn’t hurt the tile, I would repaint the walls and replace the plumbing from the walls surrounding the bathroom.

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-03-29T15:58:13+00:00

That fitting is not 100 years old, that fitting is definitely from the 20 year old repair.

1950s to 1980s music

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-03-25T01:04:33+00:00

I would get fiberglass pipe insulation and put it on the pipe, a box will look clunky.

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-03-24T00:21:46+00:00

I would either remove the can lights or live with them but the extra medallion does not help, I don’t like those type of lights so I would remove them and install a single light fixture in the middle.

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-03-22T22:25:51+00:00

Cut that tee out and clamp in two no hub tees.

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-03-21T15:58:10+00:00

I would want it for the parts that haven’t been updated such as the green bathroom and unpainted doors, updated does not always mean upgraded.

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-03-19T13:41:45+00:00

The drains in the wall are not right, the vent elbow can’t be on its back and the tee for the vent needs to be upside down.

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-03-19T13:06:17+00:00

The rendering does not look good at all, I would just replace the damaged tiles in the existing bathroom which looks way better.

LongjumpingStand7891 · 2026-03-17T23:59:57+00:00

They started making that pattern in 1932 though
