How NOT to Install Pipes and Plumbing Fixtures During Bathroom Renovations!

Challenges in renovations often arise due to a lack of funds, where the client is forced to carry out the renovation in stages, or due to the lack of knowledge on the part of the clients themselves. Ultimately, something might be overlooked, and then the work has to be redone, leading to additional expenses and a loss of precious time.

It is best when the replacement of pipes, plumbing, and all bathroom finishes are carried out by one master (or one company), rather than different ones. For example, the experts at DryZone can perform comprehensive bathroom renovations, replacing old plumbing with new, and even fixing incorrectly installed or broken fixtures.

Don’t hire different professionals – one master, one responsibility.

It is important to consider the upcoming finish when installing pipes. For example, when buying a bathtub, you need to consider not only the size of the bathroom but also the space that will be taken up by both the hidden wall communications and the wall covering.

When purchasing a toilet or, conversely, laying pipes, you should know exactly which toilet will be installed in the future, as there are many differences that are not immediately apparent. For instance, the connection flange to the sewer pipe can be straight or angled, which affects how the pipes should be laid.

Conclusion: It is best to buy materials after consulting with the master who will be doing the renovation. The master can evaluate the situation on-site and determine which plumbing fixtures can be selected in a particular case. This will save you from overpaying or having to replace unsuitable plumbing fixtures.

Purchase materials only after consulting with the master.

In small bathrooms, pipes should be laid as close to the wall as possible to save space, allowing them to be easily concealed under decorative finishes. The bathtub should be installed securely on all supports provided by the manufacturer and strictly leveled. This ensures your safety and extends the life of the plumbing fixture.

Ensure safety.
