Great video Mark, don’t you just love redoing your hard work because ‘someone’ forgot to give you all the information you needed lol. Fantastic work with the copper pipe.

[@MJTiffPlumbing]

Thanks mate….. yep it’s not down to anyone to be fair, these things happen. Just crack on and get it sorted because at the end of the day it’s about what the customer wants👍🏼👍🏼

[@georgewaters7667]

Lovely old school install ...but I am afraid you would find it hard to make money out of it ...unless you are being paid by the hour ...we would have done the first fix in plastic and the second fix in copper ....that the way its done nowadays...Good luck anyway.

[@sandih2o]

Really nice job with the copper pipes... one small suggestion... connect the Geberit with a hard copper pipe rather than a flexible one... you will go to sleep without worries😜

[@MJTiffPlumbing]

Thanks mate…… 👍🏼👍🏼 and I sleep like a log😉

[@actorlyric]

I agree with tbe comments on hard piping the toilet frame especially as you had to rip out tiling in another toilet frame a few videos ago! I tend to use all soldered connections behind panels inc adaptors. So I know im not going to have any future issues. Flexys are notorious at leaking over time. You've swapped out loads . As others have said its peace of mind at the end of the day.

[@kylejames5121]

Nice video mate I used to use compression irons to connect into shower valves but now use end feed just to not worry then after a metre change to plastic normally as it’s silent running and easy to bend and get through studs like u say copper always on show but I use plastic in walls and ceilings now

Hi Mark, a wise move using copper behind all the tiled boxing, another nice neat job.

I always will if and when a customer wants it, plastic is a lot cheaper and quicker and that’s what some people want at times

Hi Mark, Some beautiful copper pipe work there and thank you for the shout out and brilliant film. The job looks fantastic in copper, like a lot of the comments say much better than plastic. As we always say, yes plastic does have its place on certain occasions and I also use it sometimes. When you can copper and soldering is the way to go, your job there showcases it beautifully. A film on pricing jobs etc would be great, I look forward to the next episode of this job. Thanks again for the mention, have a great week, as always take care, regards, Chris. 🍻👍👍👍

Great video, and neat pipe work, as you said they really need some sort of access panel, May be put some lever valves in behind it to isolate the bath mixer valve and toilet connection as well.

Evening Mark. Nice copper work mate, much more satisfying than 'plastic fantastic'. I still can't understand customers wanting everything concealed even when you tell em what'll happen when you need access! 😂 Looking forward to seeing how it turns out though 👍

Nice bit of copper work top job!, deffo worth going for piece of mind using a bit more solder on them concealed joints rather than what looks pretty , curious as to why you wrapped the copper pipe for the shower? Was it to prevent any possible corrosion?

[@MJTiffPlumbing]

Thanks buddy…. Wrapped it just to stop any corrosion, or at least try to prevent it

[@neilbrice449]

good job so far just thought why you dont use heatmat when soldering not having a go at you

Im not a fan of compression in void space.. wouldnt it be better to use solder male irons and solder backplate outside tap piece? What you think mark?

[@MJTiffPlumbing]

I’ve not had an issue as long as you paste it up etc….. all shower valves are compression

[@barnabyventham6116]

Great video Mark. As another comment mentioned. I would use soldered brass irons into the ibox/ shower valves. It takes a little bit longer as have to pre solder the irons onto stubs before making into the valves but I think it’s worth it for recessed controls. Keep up the good work!

[@RKC3.14]

Thanks for the video mark. Would you sometimes pressure test pipe work before boarding in? with either air pressure or add valves to fill with water?

You could pressure test it…. I’m sure this will be ok as it all soldered up and tightened up well…. Let’s hope it doesn’t come back to bite me!!!

[@daveoconnor5084]

I think anyone who works for themselves has to be flexible. You have to be able to give the price that makes you a profit. Any customer who thinks you have one way to price a job is wrong. Both you and the customer have to be happy. That's why recommendations are important. This helps to develop trust on both sides.

I'd like to ask a question if I may. I've just installed new joists 20 inches above the original floor, (all new joists) but won’t be removing old joists as there the ceiling of the downstairs room. I've removed the old floorboards and intend to use them on the top of the new floor joists, so the floor will appear to be the same as it was before but at the same level as the rest of the upper floor. I’m converting this room in to a bathroom; I've been reading up on zero rated areas and understand that but it’s not clear to me about under the floor when it comes to a bathroom. So at last to my question, is it ok to have, I.E lighting cables under the floor as I have some for the lights downstairs room. Any help would be appreciated.

Nice bending Mark after 59 years in the trade i still struggle to get bends right,good for scrap When i worked for a company in the 70's there was an apprentice who was on his last warning for upsetting the plumbers he went with so i was his last chance turned out he could not read or write but give him a piece of copper and where you would use possibly a a couple of bends and a couple of elbows he would look at it and do it in one. Unfortunately i left in within weeks he was also gone a loss to the industry.

You HAVE to stop using flexis and compression fittings where its going to be tiled and concealed. Your going to cause your customers so much grief. And where make mistakes and burns stop calling it "real world plumbing". Take pride in your work and it'll be solid 👊
