This valve required the crimp-style pex, not expand-style as I had. Once I swapped to a fully-threaded valve and the appropriate transition fitting for my pex, all was fine. I SHOULD have returned...

I apologize if this isn't appropriate, but I couldn't find an admin area or relevant FAQ. Let me know if I need to delete this.

I have an extra bathshower valve for sale if anyone's looking for...

You mean those teflon discs/squares? I'd have thought those would raise it up too high, but I'll look into them.

Well, that would make it easy. So you attach the line first and then move it back instead of having to deal with working through the small front panel.

It's a GE GDWF160RSS

OK. I didn't think there's be enough clearance to tip it up. I've never worked with a DW before.

Do you normally use 3/8 copper for the connection or stick with 1/2? I'd assume the former would be...

So scooting the DW back from in front of the cabinet isn't an issue? I could see where you could get a stove or fridge very close to final resting place with a dolly.

With sheets of stuff, I...

I've read several places that you shouldn't "scoot" heavy appliances into place as they can sometimes scuff up the floor, but I've never found what you SHOULD do to get them into their respective...

LOL. That's exactly what we did have, Agu. The portion of floor that isn't yellow was a little broom closet of sorts that had a door on it. To get the stuff over the stairs, you had to step up into...

Space would really be 82 deep once I added the door. Here is a pic to give an idea of what we have now. Ignore all the wires.

The space available for our pantry is about 87" deep, but only about 27" wide. Furthermore about 4' into the 87", only the top half of space can be used because of clearance for a stairwell. That...

I do have the 4th sprayer hole, but I'm not finding what you're referring to on the Delta site. All the ones they show that can do either 6 or 8 have soap dispensers, which I don't want, not...

Covers are out, but the cheap Delta faucet I had put in years ago does run down through the center hole - will have to see how it's bolted. I had thought of drilling new holes. I like the spray foam...

We're thinking of keeping the kitchen sink vs getting a new one since it's worked fine for the 15 years we've lived here so far. However, the undercoating is brittle and flakes off in the cabinet....

Bump. Anyone?

I'd assume I can still use putty for a Sterling Vikrell tub. Didn't notice any warnings otherwise. The sink we have says no putty, use 100% silicone. I was wondering if silicone would even work on a...

Looks like I'll need to do this with my Delta R10000. I put on what I thought was too much paste just to be safe, but it's still leaking. I don't see what tape gives that dope doesn't but maybe I'll...

Sand Mix it is then. Thank you.

Not sure I followed all of what you're saying here. Which corner are you referring to? I haven't set the valve in yet, but don't have access to the backside anymore.

Since the wall has a...

Maybe I should just learn to tile, eh? Was trying to go as simple and frugal as possible but I want it to last a long time also. There will be doors for the alcove so most water will likely hit above...

Will be setting my tub next Thur. Went to the big box and they have these to chose from - which one do I need?
Stone Mortar Mix
Type S Masonry Mix
Mortar Mix
Sand Mix
Concrete Mix

I assume...

BUMP. As in the other thread, I'm finally getting ready to finish this project so I'd like to make sure I do it all correctly.

Bump. FINALLY getting ready to finish off this remodel and still not sure what will be best in this area.

Green isn't even allowed in some areas (using latest national codes) anymore, being replaced by purple.

I have the same question essentially. I plan to use normal drywall in the bathroom but would consider using purple board for the foot or so above the surround (it mounts to the studs) and ceiling...

I'm in the exact situation as Charlie except I'm using 1700 trim with the R10000 valve. The plasterguard seems to be held in place with a couple snaps now.

I take it from hj's response that I...
