Title of the video should be "repairing a loose shower valve and installing new tile" click bait link.
Looking for a video showing a fix from the front. Need to stabilize my bathtub faucets and sprout water pipe(s).
Fixing from the back wall is not an option.
Now repair it with the sheetrock/tile installed.
I want my 4 minutes back. You idiots didn't show how to replace a valve; you showed how to replace a tile. Morons.
Gapping holes are never good. haha
Why theres "writing on the wall" that covers 3/4 of video
