I love my clawfoot tub, but had to be creative, in how to utilize shelving, and have easy access to a towel rack, right off the back of the tub. Now I can shave , dry off, everything, without ever having to step out of the tub, no mess, easy.
Did you ever find out where to buy that particular assembly? The one I have from signature hardware has a pressure washer that keeps leaking I’d like something that screws in instead
Check out your local Lowe's store. Mine had 7 different options, including this style, when I was needing one. The Lowe's website had more options on styles that you may even find more appealing. The ship to store option was free.
plumbings part of general construction so we are gonna have basic tools like that lol. I dont like to use them either and it aint part of my small tool bag but remember most pipes are below the floor or in a wall... a hammers a good way to get to it quick
The coat rack gives for extra support, beyond the wall, to hold the weight of the pipe, without ruining the finish or pulling down the structure of the wall. OR it could have been requested by the owner, and whatever the owner wants, the owner gets. Owners have been known to request off things for their own reasons. The coat rack is often used to hang towels in bathrooms, such as this one, since there are no cabinets and closets.
Hey I got kind of a older house and in the main bathroom we have a tub and the faucet is connected to a half wall covered in tile I am trying to find out how to turn the tub into a shower if anybody could help me
Hi there! I have the exact same faucet and I was thinking of just adding a pipe riser and a showerhead and eliminate the hand shower. Is this possible by just unscrewing the hand shower and adding the riser pipe and the showerhead? thanks!!
I'm in Canada and I looked it at the Canadian Tire.ca site and just the 2 halves of the hoop and 2 braces is $ 500 CDN, about $ 350 USD. But because I'm Disabled and it extremely hard to climb in and out of the tub, my landlord has promised a shower stall once the pandemic is over.
lol what is the water tight puddy for, the water will never get that high. most you would need is a grommet. AND WHY WOULD YOU MOUNT IT ON THE CLOTHING HOOKS???!!!
Have you tried Menards? When you find one please send me the info. I found one at a place called Andrus Hardware in Toledo. It costs $149.00 I really don't like the way it looks.
I have a claw foot tub, but there isn't a wall behind the faucets. It sits next to the wall, and the toilet is located past the faucet end of the tub. I also have plaster walls and probably a plaster ceiling behind the cardboard tiles. I also don't have shut off valves on my tub. So if I were to shut the main off, then run into problems, I wouldn't be able to turn the water to the whole house back on until I could get a plumber to come out and fix it. When I mentioned wanting to have shut off valves on my tub, my friend was like, "Oh that's easy, just shut the water off, saw off the pipes, fit the valve, solder it into place..." Yeah, and when something goes wrong I'm screwed.
This little th-cam.com/users/postUgkxVoi3B4CB6Oygq1-vo4OTL1M_M5JkrXif tub works perfect in our 6 x 6 shower and is easy to get in and out. Also easy to drain.
That is not an open-ended wrench that is an adjustable wrench and Crescent is the name of a manufacturer I hate it when "professionals" don't have a clue
Omg why can't there be a man like you around here Lord they charge a women out the A$$ its so old and so not nice I swear GOD IS WATCHING AND THEY HAVE TO ANSWER TO HIM 😇😇😇🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏🙏

I think that the clothes hooks needed to be relocated first, Richard.
They are mounted on a strong piece of lumber. If you removed that, there's no guarantee there'd be a stud behind it right where you wanted it.
0:25 Use a crescent wrench so you won't mar the finish of the paint on the chrome...
Plating ok
But the paint got scratched...
I immediately thought if someone painted the chrome I don't think they care about maring the nut
that's an adjustable wrench
Crescent is just one manufacturer
@@walterbrunswick Nope, no other manufacturers wrench will work, only Cresent.
Can you please tell me where did you purchase all the parts to the shower assembly, i want the same thing, just in polished chrome
Did you ever find out where to buy that particular assembly? The one I have from signature hardware has a pressure washer that keeps leaking I’d like something that screws in instead
Having a roof like that in your bathroom is a pain. My tub runs with the pitch of the roof so it's almost impossible for a shower.
I bought a has with this setup, and the water pressure is weak. Can you tell me what to do to fix this???
Where can you find this tub/shower assembly? I haven't had any luck with my local stores.
Kristen Snider I think Kingston makes one. Look on Amazon

4:50 I don't know, there's just something about seeing a plumber with a hammer that looks unnatural.

Wouldn't you tile the the walls around the shower? Aren't you afraid of moisture/mold growth?
That's what I"m afraid of.
And the job gets bigger and more expensive
When he says compression nuts I get a pain in my nuts
i really don't understand why he's putting the support on the....coat rack?

@Scott Summers
Thanks for your reply.
Where do I find those wall brackets. I can't seem to find them anywhere.
and all that water will splash on that slope and eventually mold out
LoL

WHICH CONVERSION KIT IS THIS
4:34 Just me or did he leave a big hole into the roof?
JesusJuenger it’s just you
Where do I get the shower! Everywhere I see it’s 500bux!
I was wondering where you got the shower spout Assembly?
I have the same question. I haven't been able to find it anywhere

whre did you get it
I've got almost the same thing, except it doesn't have all the extra braces.
it cost you alot???

Claw foot tub floor drain
lol what is the water tight puddy for, the water will never get that high. most you would need is a grommet. AND WHY WOULD YOU MOUNT IT ON THE CLOTHING HOOKS???!!!
it doesnt matter if water never gets that high, it may drip from faucets and pipe connections, better safe then sorry
They make it look so easy!
where do you get the shower set up? I tried ACE, LOWES, man every where! I may have to build my own!!!!!
Have you tried Menards? When you find one please send me the info. I found one at a place called Andrus Hardware in Toledo. It costs $149.00 I really don't like the way it looks.
No menards in montana. But Im still looking. I think Im just going to have to build my own cause Im not getting rid of my claw foot tub.
Indeed
Try Amazon or eBay
Target, Walmart, bed bath & beyond? Online if none of those have it...

There's your new shower and now you need a new tile or two where the pipe I cut fell and chipped them.
Tubing cutter.....nice
Should have relocated the towel hooks.. and now you have to duck getting in and out of the shower.
It is wrong Ideas now you need to put some tiles on the top
This looks so easy.
Until you try it xD

Tight fit.

The endings always so quick an cringe
