Drilling through Porcelain tile can be a very difficult job. More and more customers are asking for grab bars or other safety items to install in showers- for good reason. alot of accidents happen in the bathroom;) make your install a little safer with these bars.

Should always put silicon in the holes before screwing it in to water proof

Them anchors not going to hold if someone actually uses grab bars.

@scottswannie2500 5 месяцев назад

Shouldn’t you use some silicone sealant in each hole before the screw as well as on the bracket itself?

@rodb4410 4 месяца назад

Absolutely you can, on this job I siliconed around all the plumbing trim and grab bar flanges

Thank you for this, but I would want only stainless steel screws used,

@blackdog33032 Год назад

Which size anchor did you use from what you showed in the video the #4-6 or the #6-10 ?

@saltwatertileguy Год назад

Sorry I'm just now seeing your comment, I believe I used the number four through six anchor, it does a great job of grabbing hold of the wall tile

Never seen or heard of anyone using anchors on tile and durock to hold the fastener. Who taught you or did you just try it out n figure it holds and didn't chip the tile so let it ride?? Edit - also what's your thoughts on the no drill grab bars? I've been in the trades for 20 years but as a Carpenter only so don't know alot about tile and grab bar installation

@rodb4410 10 месяцев назад

Great Questions, thanks for asking. I saw someone else using the anchors once so I tried. I will say some anchors are better than others and I feel that it is always better to fasten into structural support. With that being said, I always inform customers that these bars are meant to steady yourself, not support entire body weight. Otherwise I would add framing members and attach to wood supports. I've used the no drill grab bar once before- not a fan. The flange that went behind the tile seemed very flimsy. As long as tile doesn't crack when installing, I will continue to use the anchors as needed.

Nice. I get asked to do this occasionally, but what should I be charging for this if you don't mind sharing?

@saltwatertileguy 2 года назад

I charge hourly, 1 grab bar takes no longer than that. Don't forget to add for materials. Many times I include it in the quote for the shower install. Hope it helps, thanks for asking

Those anchors arent rated.

@saltwatertileguy 6 месяцев назад

They have a weight rating but not much. If using this method it's important to clearly explain that the bar is only meant to aid in stability, it is not installed for handicap access or use
