Thanks @Terry ! You're are a lifesaver, once again.

@Terry @Reach4 What are your thoughts on the "OATEY 43400 Set-Rite Toilet Flange Extension Kit"? Overkill?

I was hoping to hear answers like this. Thank you! I'll try one of these this week.

Hi all, I have always gotten stellar advice from this community, so here goes: For reference: My place is a townhome with a concrete subfloor, built in '79. When I moved in, everything in it was all original. Had a contractor put down new cement tile, and install a new toilet. When he was...

Thanks, Jim. The trim arrives tomorrow, so a dry run is the plan. It will be interesting to see how much this "twist" in the valve will affect things. With the way things are going lately, I will hope for the best and expect the worst. I'm thinking I will slap another piece of 1/2" drywall or...

Thank you, hj! I'm glad I wrote about what I was told, because it's been my experience that the product sales "experts" rarely know anything about the products they sell. OK, with that knowledge, I looked at the installation guide again, and it looks like they want the plastic guard ring...

Thanks everyone - I am going to open the wall up to see if there is anything I can do without messing with the plumbing too much. In the meantime I've put some feelers out to get a ballpark for what I'd have to spend to have it fixed. If anyone else has any ideas, or input on how long this...

Thanks, Jimbo. Thanks for taking a look at the installation guide!! I thought so too, but it turns out (according to a Kohler rep- but I take that with a grain of salt, since they are really just salespeople) that when they say "thin wall" they mean just the wall material- drywall/durock...

Thanks, Tom. You hit it on the head- no supports- just the one there and another up by the showerhead. Yet another thing I casually asked about, as the installation instructions even mentioned more support. I would like to tell everyone about this guy, but since there is something very wrong...

Thanks, gents. Tom- Oh no, teach me a lesson!?!?! lol I really don't know what I could have done differently- the guy came highly recommended, had references, had an A rating on the BBB and when I met him, presented his license, and was great to work with until I questioned him. At that point...

Thanks, Tom... I was afraid of that. I know it's all relative, but any idea how long it should take/ballpark what it should cost me?

Hi Everyone, I wasn't sure if I should post this in the shower forum, but since it has to do with rough-ins I posted here. My issue- I had a plumber run water lines over to a bathroom where we were adding a shower and install a Kohler K-304-K Rite Temp valve. When he put it in, it looked like...
