    Jacuzzi Replacement Parts I have a Jacuzzi with a Waterfall Rainbow spout. It was Polished Brass and I changed it to Brushed Nickel. Jacuzzi has a web site with replacement pats and a distributor, Manatron Diagnostics (I used the one in Plano) carries most of them or can order it. In my case...

    Proper Vinyl Pan Install

    My plumber installed the vinyl shower pan. After I noticed that the bottom is not all flat on the floor but rounded at the inside corners, so the pan is really shaped like a bowl. If you try to push in at the bottom near the burb you cannot get the vinyl to touch the floor. In some places the...

    New Pan Installed

    I'm redoing my shower. Everything was torn out and rebuilt and the plumber has reinstalled a liner for the pan. But, the liner was laid right over the concrete slab and fastened to the drain, and up the sides. My question is this. The plumber says I don't need a pre-slope mud bed put in first...

I can see the framing, and I can see the pan stuff going up the sides a bit and around the framing. I did not take any pictures of them actually doing the pan, but the picture...

    Shower Floor Leak Inside

    Shower Leak Inside Thanks for the info. I have pictures I took when the house was built. The shower was framed and a liner installed. Then they filled the liner with mud. Then they placed a floor, not made of cultured marble, but something that was white, pebbled or so, that covered the entire...

    Shower Floor Leak Inside

    I have a cultured marble shower. The floor is a solid piece. I have caulked the floor edges all around a number of times and unless I am just not doing it right after a few months, or sometimes a few weeks water comes out from under the caulked area (I use Silicone II). Nothing leaks outside the...
