Maybe I should have put this in general chats.... This was a nightmare and how I spent the past two days.. I did the rough three weeks ago and was a little leary to take on this job since I have not set a claw ft tub in 20 years. Just finised today...No a/c and 94f out...Humid... Pedestal sink no issue. Toilet???? Never. Never in the life of me would I put something like this in a home... Possibly you old timers may enjoy it... With that said it came out OK. Escutcheon issues mainly because homes stores have #$%$ and could not get to plumbing store. I was in the boonies. Need splits for the tight tolerances. Was worried about alignment for the tub waste and supply's.... Anyhoo anyone install these? I put the tank on the wall at the height of the tube. I think I was supposed to cut it. The water line was too short.... Yes I read instructions but they were written in the moron language. Tips or tricks for claw foots and these toilets would be appreciated...She gave my # to all her friends and now I am scared..... Oh I know the water pipe is off. I think I was supposed to cut off that offset down by the valve and use a flex, semi rigid chrome supply that was supplied..... That was my last connection and I just wanted to get out of there..... Ugggg... Makes me feel unprofessional when I think of my mistakes after the fact..... Actually I think I roughed the toilet valve off to the left too far.... ( Yes did not read the rough for that... Live and learn) [ATTACH]14762[/ATTACH][ATTACH]14763[/ATTACH][ATTACH]14764[/ATTACH][ATTACH]14765[/ATTACH][ATTACH]14766[/ATTACH][ATTACH]14767[/ATTACH][ATTACH]14768[/ATTACH] Oh here is the ceiling.... [ATTACH]14769[/ATTACH] And although 1930 sears craftsman house her tastes are authentic... 1860 couch.... ( Lincoln sat on it....LOL) I'm sure it could tell story's... actually I dont know who sat on it... I did not... Looked uncomfortable. [ATTACH]14770[/ATTACH]

Hi Everyone, After purchasing my first home, I've come to realize that my standing fiberglass shower is leaking at the drain and into the subfloor. Luckily, it looks to be dripping directly into the ground rather than into the frame of the home. From what I can tell, it's leaking at the lip near the black area in the 3rd picture. The shower drain looks to be made by Casper Industries, but it's hard to make out. Unlike some threads I've seen, it doesn't look like I can remove the strainer from the top. The unit looks very old so I'm afraid of cracking the lower pipe as well. I think it's cast iron? The house was build in 1968. I've attached some pictures for reference. Any suggestions? Can I just let the drain completely dry and apply silicon around the base of the fiberglass tub and inside between the strainer and the pipe? We plan on remodeling the bathroom in the next 6-10 months so it doesn't have to be permanent.
