[PLUMBER RICK]

you forgot to caulk the wall where the sink contacts it.

how about the descanso fitting on your tube trap?

rick.

[All Clear Sewer]

I didn't caulk the wall because they have to get someone in there to fix all the old holes and wants to be able to paint close to the sink. I`m sure the same handyman that used the black tape on the old sink trap will be doing the work :killingme:

I wanted to take out some of the wall and build a support and install new 2" line to the basement but they said it wasn't in their budget.
I had to go to a closet behind the wall and build a backing plate on the outside of the wall for a support. :mad:

It was a pita job for sure :thud:

[MrsSeatDown]

It is clean enough to wash dishes in now!:rolling-eyes:

[All Clear Sewer]

I guess so if you do your dishes in the bathroom sink :killingme:

I was teasing cause I called it a kitchen sink earlier. Rick doesn't do dishes. He waits for the dish fairy to show up. When she doesn't I do them:D

[HouseOfAtlas]

Who makes that sink? It's not Glacier Bay, is it?

[ToUtahNow]

Pretty cool I thought I was the only one with a dish fairy. The dish fairy's helper called this morning and wanted to come by but I told her I didn't need her this week. Boy won't Brenda be mad when she gets home.

Mark :o

Don't remember as they already had Jr go get it trying to beat my mark-up :mad: Silly people :rolleyes:

[Service Guy]

Don't remember as they already had Jr go get it trying to beat my mark-up :mad: Silly people :rolleyes:

Probably some piece of crap then. They probably told JR. to buy "whatever is the cheapest.":rolleyes: Nice looking installation though.

[JCsPlumbing]

Still fails inspection.:p

How`s that?

[JCsPlumbing]

You tell me plumberman.:D

J.C.

[All Clear Sewer]

I really dont know ???? you must see something I dont see?????
Hell, even the height was set to code.
Maybe your talking about the supply line that`s not hooked up????
Maybe your thinking the No-Hub band is a fernco as it does look kinda dark in that picture???? (picture taken with my phone so it`s not near a clear as my good camera.)
Hell I dont have a clue what you see with out you telling me ;)

[PLUMBER RICK]

how about the descanso fitting on your tube trap?

rick.

here's a big hint:D

rick.

[All Clear Sewer]

Rick
WTF are you calling a descanso fitting :shrug:
I tried to figure that out last night????
Must be something that has a different name here????

[All Clear Sewer]

Ok here`s a trap just like the one I used SO what is a descanso fitting ?
The only other thing hooked up to the trap is the drain extension peace off the drain and the trap arm. Other then that there`s a No-Hub to connect to the old lead in the wall :scratchhead:

[MrsSeatDown]

You need me Rick:p I do things the easy way;)

All Clear, it is an 1 1/2 OD Compression adapter. Designed to have a built-in stop so the tail piece can't push into the santee. It comes in MIP, FIP, and sweat.

[Cuda]

All Clear whats up has the good weather been good to you and the boats or have you been working with no play time?

[MrsSeatDown]

[QUOTE=All Clear Sewer;152156]Ok here`s a trap just like the one I used SO what is a descanso fitting ?/QUOTE]

It is actually a desanco fitting:dance:

We don`t use em here ;) Just the trap I posted ;)

[Service Guy]

We don't use them here either. We did in New York quite a bit, but I haven't seen any since I moved to NC.

[All Clear Sewer]

I dont know why anyone would use one as the trap has a stop built in to it:shrug:

[Ace Sewer]

I may have to rethink.... I get p.o.s.'s like this often and I just open them up again... I figure if they want a new sink that's what they'd ask for... this looks so much nicer though.

[PLUMBER RICK]

I dont know why anyone would use one as the trap has a stop built in to it:shrug:

:confused::confused::confused::rolleyes:

i guess i've never seen a tube trap with a built in stop on the tail piece:rolleyes:

must be a non california thing:rolleyes::rotflmao1:

not talking about the slip joint connection to the pop up tail piece.

the tail piece to the san tee in the wall is the application;)

rick.

[Service Guy]

That confused me as well, Rick. Built in stop? whatcho talkingbout?

[All Clear Sewer]

Are you calling the "Trap Arm" a "Tail Piece"???? :bash:
must me a california thing :killingme:

[JCsPlumbing]

Think he's talking about the adapter with a "stop" in it so you can't push the trap arm any further. Keeps you from jacking it back to the San. Tee or 90.

J.C.

[All Clear Sewer]

When cut to the right length you cant push it in past the San-Tee to far ;)

[Service Guy]

I don't know why they are knit-picking every little detail, It looks nice actually. (once the wall is painted!):way-to-go:

[JCsPlumbing]

I don't know why they are knit-picking every little detail, It looks nice actually. (once the wall is painted!):way-to-go:

Yeah, it's probably fine. Think everybody's just having fun. Look at the before and after for gosh sake!

But from a new construction point of view something like not caulking and you're failing inspection no matter what.

J.C.

[All Clear Sewer]

but it`s not finished because the wall is not done :D but in another way it should have the wall repair before the install ;)

Can you say Gray area ;)

[JCsPlumbing]

No. We do not have any "grey" areas here. No caulk, you fail, and you're driving back. Doesn't matter if they're gonna paint, stucco, whatever. Call it in again without caulking, you're paying a fine. I'm not joking. I assume it's that way everywhere.:rolleyes:

J.C.

[Service Guy]

Yeah, but Allclear is unlicensed....:ignore::duck:

[All Clear Sewer]

Not hear, they understand some old people just don't have the money and can only do so much at a time. If it`s an improvement and poses no danger they will give em time to finish something as they can afford.
My inspector is pretty cool to work with but he did try to bust my balls today :mad:

[All Clear Sewer]

Yeah, but Allclear is unlicensed....:ignore::duck:
Oh really?????

[Service Guy]

Oh really?????

I thought you worked with a licensed plumber? And you don't state any license in your website.

[JCsPlumbing]

In my areas, they follow the code to the letter with disregard to any outside circumstance. Many stories.....

J.C.

[All Clear Sewer]

I thought you worked with a licensed plumber? And you don't state any license in your website.Yep I sure do or I wouldnt be doing any plumbing till I took my masters ICC test ;)
I pay my city money just like anyone else and I have a 600,000 ins bill I have to pay every year. I work under my master plumber and have my own INS. How many plumbers have guy`s working for em that have have their own INS :)

[JCsPlumbing]

Yeah, but Allclear is unlicensed....:ignore::duck:


Really? I didn't know. Maybe we can all put in a request to Josh to give them their own section. Maybe just above the Spanish one. :rotflmao:

J.C.

[Service Guy]

Cool, have you set a test date yet?

[Service Guy]

Really? I didn't know. Maybe we can all put in a request to Josh to give them their own section. Maybe just above the Spanish one. :rotflmao:

J.C.

No, he's cool, he has always been honest about working with a licensed plumber. He's 'legit' unlike some others we know.:thumbup:

[JCsPlumbing]

Are you High? :eek: He's plumbing all the time without anyone. :nono:

You can bet on it.

J.C.

[All Clear Sewer]

Cool, have you set a test date yet?

Yea, 6 months ago but I got busy and didn't have time. Now I have to start over on my studies and try again.
I would like to do it before winter as I know I`ll be to busy once the winter root season starts up again.

[All Clear Sewer]

Are you High? :eek: He's plumbing all the time without anyone. :nono:

You can bet on it.

J.C.

Trust me if that was true I would be in jail here as I have many people keeping track of me and where I park my truck ;)

[MrsSeatDown]

You wouldn't stick out like a sore thumb if your truck didn't have "I'm a drum man" all over it:p

[JCsPlumbing]

Not sure I believe you. Ah well, don't have time for that argument and you say you're trying to become legal. :bravo:

Did you know when you get your license they teach you how to use 3 wires to detect diamonds in the ground? :shocked2:

Depth's the b-i-t-c-h.

J.C.

[All Clear Sewer]

Are you High? :eek: He's plumbing all the time without anyone. :nono:

J.C.
With as much sewer work that I have that`s just not possible.
My master plumber and I work together day in and day out.
I work for him when I`m plumbing the when he sends me out on sewer calls I work for myself.
I have one City license but it`s not the city I live in so here I work for him. In my city I have to be ICC and that's where I`m headed as I`m already a member of the ICC ;)

[All Clear Sewer]

You wouldn't stick out like a sore thumb if your truck didn't have "I'm a drum man" all over it:p

ROTFLMAO my plumbers is always saying GOD did you have to drive the Black truck to the job site....rotflmao :D

[MrsSeatDown]

ROTFLMAO my plumbers is always saying GOD did you have to drive the Black truck to the job site....rotflmao :D

That's cause the black truck has those sparkled flames on the sides:happydance:

[All Clear Sewer]

I wish...rotflmao

He just knows the inspector will be calling in an hour or so to make sure he knows where I`m at and what I`m up to....lol

He did it today and I wasn`t even in town....rotflmao :killingme:
I was 15miles a way but I left my trailer somewhere else :D

[MrsSeatDown]

This is a lesson. . .don't leave it parked outside a bar:p

[All Clear Sewer]

But it`s more fun that way :D

[MrsSeatDown]

But it`s more fun that way :D

Well ok, but make sure the bar also has a gentleman's club attached. If you are gonna do it, do it right:have-fun:

[All Clear Sewer]

Now I know why I like you :wave3:

[ToUtahNow]

Well ok, but make sure the bar also has a gentleman's club attached. If you are gonna do it, do it right:have-fun:

And this from the woman whose husband went go cart racing for his bachelor party.
