A lot of uncertainty hides behind the walls of your house. Hidden problems have hidden costs, and can delay the start and certainly the completion of any remodeling job that involves plumbing.
I?ve dealt with any number of these problems over the years. The most recent was when I had our master bath remodeled to add a tub and extend the tile floor. When the plumber began laying the water and drain lines for the tub, he discovered that the water supply lines were one-quarter inch instead of half-inch or three-quarters of an inch in diameter. They were not only inadequate but did not meet building code.
A worse, and more common, problem was that the existing drain lines from the double shower and bathroom sink to the soil stack were inadequately sloped. The 2?/2-inch drains should have been sloped onequarter-inch per foot to allow waste water to move at slow enough rate of speed to carry solids along but quickly enough to scrape the walls of the pipe.
Correcting these two problems added $2,900 to the job and included creating false beams in the ceiling below the master bath to allow the pipes to slope properly.
