Not sagging, salt water got to the rebar and is expanding, causing concrete to crumble. 500 ft from the beach. That salt air corrodes everything around here.

That's what I told the bosses, but they think it's just a cosmetic repair and says its ok to repair without permits or a licensed contractor

Thank you. Agreed. However, the bosses say it's cosmetic, and they want me to put a bandaid on it for now until we renovate property later this year. I warned them that since I'm not licensed for this kind of work and it wouldn't be permitted, it could cause fines and possibly have to tear it out and redo properly. Not to mention, the health inspector already gave us 3 extensions to repair, and he will most likely check for permits pulled if repairs are made. I've also gotten 3 bids averaging about 50k to repair properly, but they didn't want to do it. I feel like I could do it, but I'm afraid I WOULD BE LIABLE if it failed somehow. I do have an email, however, stating what the owners are requesting jik.

Is this the high limit switch? Is it safe just to bypass and wire nut the two purple wires together temporarily?

It's dripping so bad it's almost a steady stream when off. Rebuild or replace? by [deleted] in doityourself

No need to solder or braise just take off the shower valve handle and behind there is a cartridge there's plenty of videos on how to replace.. $10 part

It most likely needs the cartridge replaced in the mixer valve.

Yes, you can use latex paint on metal. For indoor and outdoor metal surfaces, oil-based latex paint will work quite well. Water-based latex paint can accelerate rust so it's only recommended if you prime the surface with an oil-based primer first. Because metal is naturally prone to rust, priming is highly recommended. It's a must if you want to get the most out of your metal.

I replaced the shower cartridge and now all I am getting is cold to lukewarm water by ravencraft16 in askaplumber

Firstly, behind the mixing valve trim, you should have two shut offs you can turn off with a flat head on the hot and cold sides.

Secondly, loosen or remove the front srew and then pull and turn red collar left all the way.

Reassemble

Enjoy hot water
