I drilled a 1 3/8" hole through 10 inches of stucco and cement block and am getting ready to install an outdoor hose bib. I can secure the pipes leading to it in the crawl space, but the last 10 inches of 3/4" pvc can move around inside the hole. The hose bib is coming right out of the stucco wall and needs to be secured so it won't move around when you open and close the valve.
I'm thinking of wrapping the 10 inches of PVC (in the wall) with pipe insulation to keep it in place, and maybe just caulking the hole around the hose bib to keep that from moving.
Is there an escutcheon type trim plate people use for this or does anyone have any other ideas?
