Rivervalleymgb Posted February 29, 2016 Share Posted February 29, 2016 My bathroom remodel is going SLOW! Actually, I think I am the one going slow. Got every thing out of the way. Scraped the popcorn of the ceiling, replumbing for the new tub, shower and fixtures; debating on some new wiring. Actually, I have to rewire some. It is a never ending story rewiring this house. The builder was an idiot. Seems like every house I have not built myself, the builder was an idiot. Of course, other builders thought I was an idiot because I refused to cut corners! Anyway, I have to stop work on it for the next few days. Batesville tonight, Tulsa on Wednesday. At least I get to check on a couple of R2R's I dropped off at Speakerworks a few months ago. A visit with Dave is always entertaining! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The first tine, the floor flange broke . I noticed it was cracked slightly and warped from over tightening when I pulled it. Just another day in the life of a remodel. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes I did, except the rough in as it was done when I purchased the house. I had use a reciprocating saw to cut it out and redo it. It was my first, what can I say. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I did the master ensuite, I had to put a slurry on the floor since the PO had added on to the house via the covered porch. Had to to slurry to level the floor. This caused the need to cut out the original flange in order to raise it level with the new surface. What a pain to cut out the pipe and install a special flange to fit inside the original 4" pipe! Love those plumbers saws made to fit in a drill motor for cutting pipe from the inside. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd prefer 13 @ 28 day months plus an extra day for celebrating the new year... Cause it takes ~362.25 days to orbit so each year we 'lose/gain' 1/4 day therefore every 4 years add a day to the calendar. Why Feb rather than like during summer 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
