@@HomeRepairTutor Id like to know if you have video for preparation and framing of the shower before starting to install the wall membrane and the pan.

@@henryian yes, I have videos that explain that inside my Video Library at homerepairtutor.com

@@HomeRepairTutor Thank you again. I already subscribed to your channel. Your tutorials are very detailed and helpful. Im starting a ground up so it would be from framing. I will back and forth following step bay step of your tutorials, especially on water proofing and installation of shower install.

It depends on the user, if you’re a homeowner, anything under $75 is probably worth it versus having to schedule and pay a pro to do it - especially if the repair is over the weekend

Only if you don’t prep correctly and push them on partially

Yes, they are time bombs. I've made good money on after Hrs Calls just for this. Thankyou sharkbite!

@@trevorstevenson4772 only if people don’t prep

They are temporary fixes not permanent

I still solder but understand why homeowners prefer SharkBites. You need a lot of supplies to do it right and it does take some experience. Plus there’s the fear of igniting the home and having a water leak

Thank you 🙏 years ago I called SharkBite and asked them if pipe stiffeners can be used with copper. The answer is yes, they can be used with copper as well as PEX

I needed to convert from a single vanity to a double vanity and the new vent tee had to be above the flood rim or more than 42 inches off the floor

No, incorrect - this is to show that precision is important and to fully explain what needs to be done to make the trap adapter be exactly where I need it. If you want to be sloppy with the location you’ll pay the price with these prefab vanity cabinets that have the trap between the sliding drawers. No to mention the fabrication of the vanity top offset the drain from the 8” square opening in the back of the cabinet. So no, you’re incorrect on many levels

Gracias

This isn’t for you, it’s for the first time DIYer and a good tip for them. The gentleman who gave me this tip is a 40 year Master Plumber at Oatey. I like the idea and shared it for that reason. My job isn’t to please you or make a new digital friend, it’s to help the homeowner who’s never done this before

Yes, the wall tile that is the niche perimeter is also beveled

It’s one method, and who doesn’t have clamps on a job site?

@HomeRepairTutor me. And I've done new construction plumbing for over a decade now. Not saying the method didn't work, I just said it was over the top. I get it was close to drywall, and you didn't want to damage it with a saw. But you adding the board reduced your play in the pipe, causing the cut to be harder

Yes, because the tile above it, which overhangs the niche, is level. Thus, the tile inside the niche also has to be level to create an even miter joint. Details count

It’s the IQ 228, great saw for small tiles and making bevels for miter joints

@HomeRepairTutor thank you. I do mainly bathroom repairs and remodels. This looks perfect for that.

Isnt that the saw that shoots the water backwards into your face? Lol hopefully not! My buddy had one that did! I wanted to throw it off the roof!

Heres my tip for tiling niches… dont! Corner shelves made out of a 1/4 circle of stone fulfill the function of a niche , take less than half the time to install, look better imo and if someone drives a nail or screw in the wall opposite the bathroom to hang a picture or whatever they wont end up with a shower niche repair as well! Ive seen it happen you doubters! And you dont have to worry about waterproofing a niche which are notorious for water damage! After a while a shower is just a shower! Like it or not when the newness wears off a shower and its required maintenance is forgotten about! A niche is the last place you should forget when it comes to maintenance! caulking etc ! At the very least you should put a solid 1 piece of marble or granite for the bottom of your niche that comes past the plane of your wall about 3/8” to form a drip edge!
