I normally handle most things around the house myself, but when doing a shower remodel I decided to hire a plumber since there were things, such as jackhammering to move a drain, that I didn't feel comfortable with. Part of the job required moving some of the piping in the shower around and plumbing in the rough-ins for the valves.
Halfway in I noticed he wasn't deburring the copper tubing he cut. I had read that was recommended and I always did it when doing my own DIY repairs so I questioned him about it and he said it actually wasn't necessary, he'd been doing this for 10 years, etc etc so I let it go at the time.
After the fact I started googling and read things like this is code and I am going to have problems. Is this a big problem that I should be concerned about or is this going to be more trouble than what it is worth to get them to come redo the connections? This is in 1/2" type L lines.
Thanks for any advice.
