He Massacred that tile.
Sorry but, nobody flushes the toiler while they're in the shower.
Steve lav would've gotten the 'grindah'
He made this look easy. This would take the average homeowner 2-3 days, lots of broken tile/ leaks/ destroyed parts/ screws down the drain. Hire a plumber its worth it!
They should have replaced the shower arm, shower arm flange, and shower head too!!!! The valve handle and tub spout look nice and beautiful, but the shower head assembly now looks old and cheap!!!! And replacing that is not that expensive and is very easy.
You have a nice looking tub spout and valve, but an ugly shower head assembly. But otherwise great video, and always neat to see how old valve assemblies are upgraded. 🙂
Moved handle up to a reachable position so you don't have to bend down slip and fall on your ass
That tub spout is really long with an edge. She was better off with the old one.
That wasn't the last step! Silicone around the tub spout and the valve escutcheon.
WELL , STEVE SAYS PUT SOME SILICONE LOCTITE
I bet he was pissed when she mentioned the access panel after he cut the tile
