I say 3rd world places or some of the people that call me wanting something cheap. They always find that special someone who will do it for a real bargain.

This morning...She says I want it to code...Sure I'll be here all day and gotta drill through 3 cabinets, destroy the bathroom wall to repipe the 3" stack.

Well nevermind...


Deep throat, I mean oops deep trap...

Couple days later she calls again and this time the toilet in the basement is leaking. I took it out and some bozo(Supposedly a real plumbing company) put this in. He butchered the flange wich was like 2 inches off the concrete and the bolts weren't even in the correct spot so he tried to lag them in.

Best part is that when it's flushed it goes straight into a tee and it want's to go up the stack to the 2nd floor. :vs_laugh:

What did they do, looks like just cut a hole in a waste pipe then added
the closet flange on a short riser ? :vs_OMG:

15” rough with a 12” toilet. Must not have heard of 14” rough toilets

In my in-law part of my house that I use as an office/brewery I put in a 14” rough 3.5 on a 12” rough flange.

Gets me by. I disconnected that bathroom group Monday when I got my new line though....

I already posted it in another thread. Last Friday's customer.... He was debating if he wanted to pay to fix it because the credit card trick was working just fine. I told him if he wanted to sell the condo it''ll look like crap.

Lord only knows how much they got charged for this outdoor shower and the jagoff who put it in couldn't be bothered to peel off the extra teflon tape or caulk/putty/escutcheon the holes through the siding. They used stainless deck screws for the bracket to the wall so I assume a carpenter was around or they would have used drywall screws like the lazy jagoff they are.


I was there to replace a burst chrome 90 because the line coming through had a drain inside but wasn't pitched correctly. I am sure the bathroom exhaust fan inside that room was also pulling nice cold air past the pipe because the penetration was twice the size of the pipe and not caulked.



The last picture is the cracked 90 going into the wall.

I don’t need to tell you what the rest of the house looked like....

Crap yesterday's post disappeared! Anyway I think it's an apprentice plumber who did this side job with stolen commercial pipe from his day job. Then he put the nut under the sink. I had to remove the sink completely to take the faucet out. Grrrrr.

My cousin sent me this one. He was called out for a gas smell. I guess one step glue doesn’t always work.

You'd be surprised a lot of guys don't know how or it's too difficult for them. I once worked at building an olympic size swimming pool and I had to calculate the 45's for one guy, 12" PVC fittings that is, at a cost of 2400$ each. The guy was holding it up over his head on shaky arms telling his helper to measure in between and eyeball it. :vs_OMG:

I think it was a Pfissster, the customer tried to repair the hose themselves for 4 months, they bought 4 different hoses and non of them fit! :vs_laugh: All those parts cost half of a new faucet. She didn't suggest I keep the unused parts.

He routed it to the sump crock.
