Drain pipe coming from newly-tiled wall is 1.5 nominal ABS (about 1-7/8" OD) and the wife hates the look of the ABS. Does anyone know where I can get chrome piping that will cover this?

The pic below shows my closet flange as I set it in place to lay out the notches I made in my floor tile. Floor is now tiled, and as you can see, I have the large holes (for the johnny bolts) lined up at 9 and 3 o'clock. I really don't want to drill any more holes in my tile - would I be...

I was picking up a new flange and some ABS at Home Depot earlier today (remodeling a bathroom) and one of the guys who works there (retired plumber who actually knows what he's talking about) asked me what I was doing, then mentioned something about the new code specifying flanges should be...

I had a new tub installed by a contractor, and he installed a plunger-type lever drain from Home Depot (pic below). Everything else seems to be working fine, but the drain won't seal completely - water slowly leaks out. I've tried lengthening (and shortening) the linkage that controls the...
