delta was good about replacing missing parts, set screws,i bought things on amazon under their "used" sub menu, saved a ton,getting the nipple length on the body sprays was a chore,made my own custom lengths
I have had a few valves end up a little shy before. Its devastating. Luckily most of the manufactures make extension kits. You guys did get lucky with that one. Only problem is now the valve is pointing upwards. Maybe most will not notice. Glad that you went to ace for those screws. They saved the day for me earlier today. I like the stops also but I also like the high flow shower valves from delta, but they don't make it with stops. Probably should have grouted before putting the escutcheon back on ;)
@@Vin3Man The delta R10000-UNBXHF is the high flow shower only. Your regular R10000-UNBX will work if it's a tub and shower. But it's not considered high flow for the shower side.
Nothing worse than a valve roughed to deep in a wall with custom hand picked tiles and a trim that they do not make extension kits for! Spent many of long hours in multi million dollar homes going threw the same scenario! Good Job!
All through wall finish valves should be adjustable in some method. I am installing a shower valve with exposed shower head riser. Zero adjustment available. Worst case I will have to grind down the ring. I am trying to leave some gap that would just leave some of the valve copper exposed if it ends up to far out.
Would have had the same issue on the Grohe fixture we just installed. Not designed for a floated wall. Ended up having to notch the copper supply lines into the denzshield in order to make it work. Only realized it because we did the demo and plumbing and worked alongside tile guy. Otherwise super easy thing to overlook. Great job on the fix.
You got pretty lucky with this one! Normally, it's not this easy. Sometimes depending on how well a plumber fastens the copper lines to a backing further down the vertical run, unscrewing the rough valve portion only tilts the stem and cartridge outward in an angle, in which case, your escutcheon will not sit flat on the finished wall.
This happened to us so many times we used to just have extra extension kits. It's also helpful if the plumber checks the walls, and or what the tile setters plan is.
When I install a shower valve I ask the tile guy how thick the tile and everything will be I put the shower valve at the appropriate depth. If it comes out thicker than that then it's not my problem.
@@PlumbNutz Yeah we did allot work in post WWII track homes. Some were just the worst nothing square, plumb, level or even parallel. On a tight budget, we had to be creative sometimes to do a good job, and have be right.
You learn as a tile guy to always check them. The whole “not my job” thing costs everyone. First thing I check when I’m told “shower is ready for you”.
I love your videos, I just wanted to make some suggestions if I may! I would put some kind of blanket or protection on the floor because the pieces may fall and chip your beautiful tile job, also I would have grouted it before I put the cover plate. Great job as usual👍
What's funny here is these shower valves a DIY guy can purchase have a lot of forgiveness in them, especially the Delta products. You start getting into Ghroe or California Faucets, you and the plumber better be on the same page. I floated everything and found if you set the thing between 1 5/8" and 1 3/4" they fit come payday, the day you set the trim. The problem most people have is they just attach the new valve to the existing water supplies thinking that's where it goes. Guys like us should know better than this. When you figured out you had to float that wall, someone should have got the tape measure out.
Besides he never removed all the grout with just a couple swipes on the outside of the tile grout line. Time saved. Not hurting a thing. It what I would have done.
The problem started with the G.C. not providing the plumber with a straight wall to work with, Its not the plumbers job to determine if the wall needs to be floated out.
The valve instructions usually say have the edge of the plaster guard within certain measurements of the proposed finished wall. Unfortunately the last (off brand) valve didn't have clear measurements regarding the finished wall. Ended up too deep in wall. Now "praying" for an available extension kit! 🙏🏾😳😊
You should check at your local plumbing supply house for someone who knows a delta rep, they usually either got the good stuff or can get it on the fly!
Bro has much more skill than me as a GC. But look. This is why I hate the float option you use. Just get the walls plumb and square before you rock the walls and then you’re good. With all due respect, just my .02 Love your work and channel.
This is the only video that I can find on the entire internet showing the installation of a Delta T27T997 Two-handle temperature 17T valve trim with setting diverter. Since Im probably not the only person frustrated with delta for showing the diverter install without the valve trim, I posted a link to this video on the Delta site showing installation of the associated R22000 Diverter Rough.
Been there many times on vektek hydraulic elevator fittings too recessed into the wall ,loosen the mounting screws and slip a couple slotted shims behind the screw to fill in the space then put the cover plate over it .The sudden torque from the fluid pressure no matter what kind of fluid will slightly move that valve over and over and it will eventually leak if a space is left between the stud and the screw ,even if the cover plate is tight.
OK the only thing I see wrong so far other than what you were describing but at first glance as a project manager I can tell you your design is absolutely beautiful however you’re missing one characteristic that maybe you didn’t know about so I’ll tell you… On the glass enclosure the glass installers should’ve offered the sapphire blue glass as it is absolute clear and when you’re looking at the white on the video you can see the shading of the white shower and it should’ve been absolute clear the customers would’ve been blown away… It’s worth the change out should they decide but look into it and you will see because I hate looking at Beautiful white showers but then seeing a shading and color difference…. 🤔 just a thought 👍
good thing you didn't have to bust any tiles out - I don't see how you could have made it 100% waterproof again... also looks like it's pointing up now..
I’m glad it worked out for him, but I would like to see a video of a pro removing and replacing a tile or a few tiles that are installed on a sheet membrane or roll on membrane. Tile Coach actually said what he expected to happen if he removed them from the fleece-like membrane. I wonder what would likely happen on a roll on membrane? I was thinking the membrane would just separate from the backer board. Would this damage the backer board? Or could a new layer just be brushed/rolled on. Hmm.
The issue could have been prevented if the extension kit was already on hand before deciding to float the wall, otherwise the diverter mounting could had been corrected prior to wall plumb correction.
Can you do a video on water absorption rate for tile? What tiles to use in showers given their water absorption rates. Maybe even an experiment with tile with high absorption rates submerge in water compared to tiles with low absorption rates, etc.
Before I was a GC I was installing tile, a tile guy must learn basic plumbing such installing a valve an patching drywall if necessary. You can easily adjust a valve after you prepare your walls and prior installing tile.
A tile guy does not need to learn plumbing.... he needs to call the builder who can call the plumber. so they can can figure out the problem.... a tile guy shouldnt be playing with that valve at all....when it leaks in 2 months whose fault would that be?
@@rmbuilder1 that’s a really mediocre mentally, a tile guy that works on showers must know and learn basic plumbing, this is not rocket science! I been in the industry more than 28 years and never once had a shower valve leak and if it leaks you fix it and learn from it! In life you need skills and the more skills you learn, the easier it becomes.
@@boxing1940 What does you being in the business 28 years and never having a valve leak have to do with the fact that the TILE guy should be setting tile and not screwing around with the plumbing? By the way, I've been in business over 33 years and have never had a valve leak....you know why? Because I am a builder and I don't screw around with someone else's work...
Wassup buddy how are u I have a question I only float all my bathrooms I don’t do hardibacker. So u said u have half inch denshield plus half inch float cement mortar that’s already 1 inch plus thinset and tile
He turned the screws in on the regulator to turn the water off, but I didn’t see him turn them back on, I bet after the vid they had to disassemble everything again to access those screws. 😬😬
@TileCoach so if the valves are set too deep, there is an option to put in an extension on the valves? I have an issue with a shower elbow valve being too deep. Can I purchase an extension to bring it out a 1/4 inch? Or do i have to go in from behind in closet wall?
Maybe you could do a show on how to make your shower wand into a rain head by using an attachment on the ceiling. So you don't need extra Plumbing in the ceiling. Besides the wand has adjustments that rain heads don't.
9 times out of 10 you can just go to back side of wall and correct it. Simple drywall repair. Way better than busting tile or jacking up the escutcheon crooked.
Wondering why you left the plaster guard in. It's not necessary after the tiling is finished. Sometimes it gets in the way. I had one guy install it behind the tile! They definitely couldn't have gotten the trim on that way. I'm sure they had fun removing it! 😂
Rough-in box/Plaster guard has the 4 nuts that the longer screws go into which retains the finish chrome, I have same unit. Crazy the rough-in box has only one screw to the valve body,
Hey Tile Coach.U think I could send you a video of my upstairs bathroom that was renovated but it is leaking bad.And if u can give me a few scenarios what they did wrong.
do you happen to remember how long and wide the bathroom is? i think i pretty much have to exact same layout and size at home. and i would like to copy your design. but i am scared to corner of the shower will come to close to the vanity.
Issac how do you waterproof around that valve(thinking it’s the same as my Delta R22000)? Ie: traditional Valve Seals meant for single valves don’t work, thanks.
What depth would you recommend to place the face of plaster guard. When in doubt I usually go with 3/4" out from face of stud. I figure there's a 1/4" of tolerance either way so the tile guy can go with any size backer board standard tile size and all is well.
i read my instructions ,and still got it wrong,luckily just buying longer screws fixed it,and the trim still fit well,but the mud ring shouldve been out about 3/8 in more
What if a shower valve is set to high, sticks out to far from tile and doesn't allow trim kit to seal against tile? A riser plate of sorts to sit on top of the tile seems to be what I need, but I have no idea what you would call that.
If it’s one of those Amazon valves you can cut down the valve housing flush. If it’s a delta etc look into some square gasket material you can cut to size to make up for that gap! Good luck !
Doing a shower remodel now, Kohler is such a headache tho, but more of a headache is my client, changes their mind like a baby changes diapers!!! I know someone feels my pain!!
Making sure the plumber is clear about the distance the finished wall is makes a big difference! Teamwork makes a difference also. Plumber and tile person mainly. General contractor if one is involved.
I don't get it. Shouldn't those wall through parts get sealed specially on shower area behind the tiles? Maybe it's just confusing me cause here everything what is in bathroom is taked very seriously by waterproofing. All pass through wall items we seal those before tiles. Like if you seal doors and drain you could make it to pool safely. :)
You can get guys in high value countries to model it (based off a picture and few dimensions so they can scale) and get it printed for a few bucks in the country your in... i have a printer for annoying diy jobs like this
Nice fix!!
Shouldn’t you have grouted before the plate was installed?
Driving me crazy too lol
Shouldn't you have checked your finish depth before you set any tile... Call that plumber back out.
@@orioncustom
That’s what I’m saying. Why didn’t you check your depth before you set tile. You could have moved the diverter out 🤦♂️
Could have rolled some 45 m&f bends
I’m surprised to see this was an issue for a pro.
delta was good about replacing missing parts, set screws,i bought things on amazon under their "used" sub menu, saved a ton,getting the nipple length on the body sprays was a chore,made my own custom lengths
That is an exquisite bathroom design. I especially love the floor reflected up to the ceiling.
I see your tile shop every day as I drive through Rocklin, on I-80 !!!
I have had a few valves end up a little shy before. Its devastating. Luckily most of the manufactures make extension kits. You guys did get lucky with that one.
Only problem is now the valve is pointing upwards. Maybe most will not notice.

Great info can you tell me which valves are high flow? I am doing copper to the valves since Plex will reduce flow.
@@Vin3Man The delta R10000-UNBXHF is the high flow shower only. Your regular R10000-UNBX will work if it's a tub and shower. But it's not considered high flow for the shower side.

Lovely tile pattern and install. Super clean.

If the other side of that wall is drywall I would cut a rectangle out to remove the shower side drywall. My Last resort would be removing tile.

So did the extension come in or that's the part that came with the assembly
Where some see obstacles, others see challenges. Way to go, Isaac! 🛠👍🏻

He turned the screws in on the regulator to turn the water off, but I didn’t see him turn them back on, I bet after the vid they had to disassemble everything again to access those screws. 😬😬

Kudos for showing all of that , mistakes included
We have a 3 inches wall. Can we install a diverter?

ive never seen a extension kit for delta r22000ws,
I'm glad I bought all my Brizo fixtures last year. Almost had heart failure when I saw this bill!
Always try the simple things first.. Thats why Isaac starting razor blading the grout out before he loosened the bolts.....
You can do anything with spacers!!!

i did need longer stainless screws also
Those guys do look better when rough in a little deep
Ive had to pull screws and shim behind them to pull a valve forward before, luckily ive not had to tear out tile
So I installed mine a bit too far out .Any suggestions?
In India, we simply screw in an extension nipple then attach the taps or shower heads.
You forgot to put that gasket piece with the plastic on it the screws into the plaster guard
Wow I just did this. Thank you
too bad you cut away the grout for no reason, but no biggie in the end!
All the vendors needs to be specific in small blueprint how the valves needs to be with finish surfaces
If done in Pex should have some play.
Doing a shower remodel now, Kohler is such a headache tho, but more of a headache is my client, changes their mind like a baby changes diapers!!! I know someone feels my pain!!
So remove the grout, then figure out you don’t need to, then install the handle and trim before regrouting. GOT IT! 😂

What do you mean stops?
Maybe he was talking about a safety stop to keep the water below scalding temperatures.
They’re on eBay now double cheap. I just checked
