One of the shower doors rolls closed by itself because the upper horizontal shower stall bar that the doors hang from is out of level about 1/8" in 1'.
And these guys wanted to use me as a reference. Not goin' ta' happen.

I leaned from my journeyman, Glen Bellows, that you always do your work with a level.
The whole house may be crooked, but if your work is level, they can never complain.

And what gets me is that I told them in advance how far out of plumb the walls were so it's not like they didn't know about these problems.

True but putting a level on angle stops is absurd. I'm sorry but that one gets me. That's what yer eyeballs are for! lol That plumber even gots the name Level Em Up Johnny! :D

I do run into this problem with dishwashers a lot. I show the HO the level and say let them know that although it looks crooked, the level don't lie. One did question my level though! lol
