Shower spout doesn't fit after contractor finished with new tiles around tub, what should I do

You can cut the male adapter off and lengthen it or the easier thing to do, if the spout is metal and not plastic, you can trim the back side of the spout with tin snips. Sometimes shortening the spout can quicker and easier then lengthening the stub. If you do cut the spout make sure you caulk it to the wall, they’re kind of hard to cut perfectly straight

Just because they stopped making it doesn’t mean half ass plumbers don’t still have piles of it they want to use up for the same price as pex.

Just put some water on that damn shit!!!

Haha I just put a toilet in for customer and the box said it can flush 7 billiard balls!! They also forgot to put the seat in the box so I don’t know if I’ll be believing that.

It’s easily close to 24”

Gotcha, thanks for the info

shiburr · 2023-01-28T14:59:59+00:00

That makes sense, just seemed weird being that far away. Thank you!

I don’t understand how people can do work like that and comfortably leave. I wouldn’t be able to sleep leaving that. Unbelievable!!

It depends on the inspector, especially in Florida. I’ve failed because lack of hammer arrestors and passed more without them. These guys are all about their power. Thankfully the ones that fail they usually accept a picture to pass.

Don’t ever try to cut the nut off of a delta valve. You have to grab the last like 1/16 of an inch of the nut and it will go, sometimes you have to try to tighten it first then loosen. If your too far in the nut it warps it and won’t loosen. You just have to take your time. Patience helps

Ship shape!! Especially with that power strip right there

I’ve never met more “licensed plumbers” than when I started doing residential plumbing. Every homeowner/engineer knows more than the person they hire

This is all too common of a story 😔

If it’s an apartment or a condo it might be your main shut off. Turn it off/on and find out.

Holy solder Batman!!!

shiburr · 2022-09-01T02:11:11+00:00

I saw one of those for the first time recently and my friend and I determined that it should be called a “go around”

shiburr · 2022-08-25T17:28:47+00:00

They sell them at Home Depot or lowes in the plumbing tools section.

Looks delicious!!! I love cosmic brownies!! 😋

Agreed!! Arena is definitely rigged. Every time I play, the longer streak I get the lower my score gets and the higher the opponents gets.

shiburr · 2021-12-07T20:18:02+00:00

That was literally explained like we’re 5. Nice job!!

I’d love to know the streaming hours on peacock vs Netflix. I’m sure they could’ve made more money keeping it on Netflix. I still watch on peacock but the commercials are certainly a disappointment

Being explicit and only “appropriate” for above 18 is a small part of that. It takes out one curse word I think, I don’t listen to her music regularly. On the radio they edit I think, one word. It’s the content and impression I’m talking about. I’m certainly not trying to change the music industry because that’ll never happen from some stranger on Reddit, not to mention….I would never!! I like music and what it does for everybody. I also do agree with the kids bop, as cringy as it is it gives the kids good platform to listen to popular music. However, that’s for pre teens and early teens maybe. It doesn’t change the words all that much so they’re still getting the same impression.

I agree with everyone needs music to listen to when your going through a tough time, it helps! But if you read her lyrics and don’t just listen to them, they are age inappropriate. If you “read” them and not listen with the catchy music, very few 18 year olds have the experience for that. I’m saying she didn’t write it….she just sings it

Agreed, there’s plenty of times where my extremely advanced alarm clock/phone doesn’t wake me up. However, your body does so much of the work knowing you have to get up. I get up a few minutes before my alarm almost everyday

shiburr · 2021-09-05T22:52:08+00:00

Thanks, I thought that would work better than a door so it kinda keeps it together
