Bathroom remodeling can be a pain…it’s nice to have a support group. Today we talk about finding pipes in walls and the tub lip problem.   Pipes in walls can be re-routed using standard soldered fittings or SharkBite fittings. If you have access to the pipes via an access panel I would recommend using SharkBites. Check them out here http://www.sharkbite.com/   But if the pipes will be hidden in the wall I do recommend soldering instead of SharkBites.   I got a second question from Lynda about what to do with the tub lip…should she put building panels over the lip or rest them on the lip?   My recommendation is to put panels on top of the lip.   Listen to the show to hear why.   Here are links to Schluter and Wedi…Schluter makes KERDI-BOARD.   http://www.schluter.com/   http://us.wedi.de/index.php   For more information on bathroom remodeling check out our support group at Bathroom Repair Tutor   https://bathroomrepairtutor.com/   If you liked today’s show please give us a rating and review on iTunes, thank yo
