Horror Shower Fixed! Ripped Out & Refurbished
Our 'house of horrors' shower repair video showing some terrible cowboy plumbing was hugely popular but many of you weren't impressed by the fact that we left the stud work in place and repaired around it. So Part II sees us start from scratch and do the whole room properly with the help of Abacus Bathrooms.

@aerowilly65
@aerowilly65 3 года назад
Some great advice here.Thanks for posting this. One tip of my own-Always protect the shower tray or bath when you're standing in it screwing shower fittings on Or doing any kind of work like fitting the screen or enclosure. I use old Cloud-nine carpet underlay with a rubber back on. It protects the tray or bath from any impacts or accidental damage from dropped tools. Also saves having to work in your stocking feet!

@jesus jones Absolutely opposite. My uncle builds houses from the ground up, he cannot believe how poorly British houses are constructed. Go to Poland and see how they build new houses - stop hiring a local handyman to do your bathroom and find yourself a professional. I paid £80 to 'British plumbers' and they didn't manage to fix my leaking close-coupled toilet. All it needed was to replace it with a proper seal (he just put tons of plumbers putty). My money down the drain I shall say. So yeah British quality job.

When loading a beam (or joist), there is a geometric property called the second moment of area that determines its effective bending stiffness. The stiffness scales with the (beam depth)^4! Cutting a hole out of the middle will mean any reduction is stiffness, and hence strength, is minimised. Excellent advice Roger

I commented on the first video stating that I would have advised the client to have a new valve fitted while doing the repair to ‘future proof’ the work. Great to see that is what happened in this second video and with one of my shower valves of choice. It’s never easy or ideal to do just a section of a room and keeping parts of the existing so must make the best you can and of course people’s budget must be taken into consideration. Our most common scenario now is removing a bath and replacing with a walk-in shower whilst trying to keep it looking like its always been that way. Good to see someone who puts at least as much, if not more work into all the stuff nobody ever sees.

4:15 - I cannot stress this enough; always check your saw depth before cutting! I had to repair a section of floor in my spare bedroom after the previous owner had done a wiring bodge to add a spur to the ring main and made a mess of the floor in the process. I set the foot on my 170mm circular just enough to cut through the tongue of the18mm floor board and then lifted it to find the main 22mm main gas feed lurking just below the floor, running from the garage below. A full depth cut could have a disaster so always scan the floor and double check your depths before committing to it.

Such a pleasure to watch a real professional working and doing a top notch job. I wish I saw this video before I had my new bathroom fitted, I would have known what to watch out for and ensure the plumber was doing a good job. I fear he was in too much of a rush, working other jobs in tandem with mine. I know he has fitted plasterboard but I don’t know if he used waterproofing, too late now as it is completely tiled. It looks lovely, so I hope he did. There have been stupid snagging issues like the hot and cold water being reversed, hot water when flushing the toilet, etc, so I’m not confident now that there won’t be other issues down the line. Anyway, I wish you had been my fitter. Great job.
@gearmob3555
@gearmob3555 5 лет назад
Great video. I enjoy watching skilled craftsmen from other locales. There are often new techniques and solutions on display, but the basics of quality work remain the same. Occasionally there are some eye-opening differences in code ans standards. Here in the U.S., a new home would never have an exposed soil stack, all plumbing is contained within the building envelope. I can see that a long history of upgrades to older buildings would lead to casual acceptance of the appearance of exposed plumbing. It certainly allowed for an easier relocation of the shower drain. And no worries of noise when lack of foresight leads to a noisy drain in a dining room or living room wall.
@edwardholmes91

So that there are no confusions afterwards. TOP MAN

Hi Roger, Watched your video on shower horror brilliant video thanks. You show drilling and screwing into tiles and mentioned how to avoid cracking the tiles by not using tapered screws, I’ve an alternative, when you push the plug into the wall hand tighten a screw into the plug then carefully tap the screw into the wall past the tile which pushes the plug past the tile, this avoids the cracking problem and you can use tapered screws safely and this also gives better grip into the wall.

Great video, highly instructive and well presented, thank you. The one very minor comment I have - and its just a personal preference - is the orientation of the L- shaped metal trim round the recess. I always think it looks better if you have the thin edge facing the main elevation it's viewed from, whereas your tiler put it in 'wide side out'. To me, that way just looks a bit clunky, but as I say, it's a very minor quibble. Thanks again for taking the time to shoot, edit and upload this really helpful video - great professionalism demonstrated throughout!

Lovely job. Im definitely going to use those tile backer boards on my next bathroom/shower job. One thing I hate is the shower install fixings where you are left with a female thread part in the wall so after you’ve tiled you have to blind screw a shower arm or whatever into it. Yes you can use the tape etc but at the end of the day you’ve no idea if it is leaking. I wish they all used a rubber washer or something so at least you know its sealed. I guess if you do all the waterproofing right at least you know the water cant go anywhere.

I use Locktight thread instead of PTFE. It doesn't leak even when you have back up a bit. Good for outside taps.

Damn you this was too interesting and it distracted me from actually doing some work lol. Great result all round including filming and editing. First class.

Nice job roger , I always use the I box valves as they are real quality the only thing I would have done different is to install the valve on the left wall as you walk in so that the customer can switch it on and let it get to set temp before entering the shower area........👍

yensabi That is also the way I like to do it but the customer has the final say.

Drilling tiles ain't too bad if you take your time. Only done it a few times I used a masonry bit in my current shower and was absolutely fine took it gently and was perfect.

Nice to watch a proper tradesman at work. What do you use on your compression fittings, I.e plumbers mate, etc. Some of the stainless fittings on valves at 10mm look great but in my opinion require too much tightening. Thanks, a retired ex-fitter

I'll never tackle a plumbing job as a DIY'er, but these videos are so educational and gives me the info I need to identify who to employ. Great job, sir.

Harry. We are glad you pointed this out. The value to a non plumber is that they see how it should be done

I know its an old video but I do watch a lot of yours if I have a job to do. Bathroom and shower being the latest job so I ordered the Abacus No More Leaks Bath & Shower Sealing Kits. Thought I'd watch their video and who do I see non other than yours truly 🤣, thought I spend extra now rather than more later down the line.
