    underwhelmed by delta water sealing

    After so carefully waterproofing the shower I'm installing, it feels bizarre to have this flimsy little piece of foam being the only thing that's really covering the large penetration for the shower valve. Shown in the photo is the back side of the cover plate for Delta's most common universal...

    Add concrete under shower pan?

    We are replacing a shower and have a fiberglass pan. The floor is pretty level and the new pan seems rest on the support rings, which go to the slab. (underside of pan shown in photo). I'm debating about trying to add concrete underneath the new pan (for instance in the voids under the curbs)...

    Replacing weird toilet flange

    Redoing our whole bathroom, and after ripping out the subfloor, noticed . Hoping someone has seen this before! Maybe it's just normal and new to me. 1) Is this a normal elbow and the flange inserts into the elbow? (but I don't see a joint on the inside.) 2) is this a weird flange that goes...

    Fitting2fitting junction - trying to salvage.

    I'm putting an in-wall toilet in our tiny bathroom, and so I'm redirecting the old the toilet waste pipe. There is a 90 degree sweep (shown in photo) that I need to rotate (or replace and rotate) 45 degrees as shown by the red arrow, so it points towards the wall and can hook up to the new...
