Workman Third Floor Bathroom

This job started with a request to install a shower over a ball & claw tub. I looked at the job and the first thing I noticed was the drum trap and old plumbing going to the tub. It looked like a landmine to me. The toilet was also a wall hung toilet that was already leaning and was going to fall off the wall soon. I recommended some upgrades. We opened the floor and replaced the tub piping. We repiped the water to the toilet and upgraded its flange. After the flooring guys finished we reinstalled the tub with new fixtures, and replaced the toilet. These ball & claw tub jobs are fun because very careful measurements are needed during rough in or the set and finsh won't go well.

Barclay waste & overflow assembly. The chrome finish on the Barclay stuff was impressive.

Original style water supply tubes were used. Measurements were crucial for those to work out.
