OH No ! The Plummer Bummers Keep On Coming!!!

More problems with the powder room toilet drain.


It is not level causing the toilet to have to be shimmed up 1 1/2 " OFF THE FLOOR.

The pipe was put into the ground crooked as were several other pipes in the house.

So the end result is that we have to figure out a way to cover the gap$$$$$.

That makes it complete. EVERY pipe put in the ground before the slab was poured is either crooked, in the wrong place ( like a wall instead of room) or the pipe runs through the wall at an angle causing use to either abandon the use or build out the wall to accommodate the pipes crooked placement. Vent pipes included ALL placed in the wrong place and one still has to be periodically resealed on the roof. That one was put through a standing seam roof (and he could not have been more accurate) perfectly in the MIDDLE OF THE SEAM!! I wonder why he could not have been that accurate on all the other pipes. But then he is a master plummer. Next time I will hire the unexperienced kid right out of school. No better yet maybe my grandkids could have done a better job eh Mr. Plummer. Hope you are reading this because if not now you will be reading it in a court room!!

So today ( and we aren't finished yet) we have three major problems, We also have a problem with the master shower spray unit. It was installed incorrect. The valves need to be EXACTLY the same size and distance as the valves on the opposite side. The distance between the sides mus also be EXACTLY the same distance from the center control valve. Of course they are not causing the 4 body sprays to be stronger on one side and weak on the other.



Patience all good thing come to those who wait!!!
