Floor professional install said this can be covered with quarter round.

We had Coretec LVP installed today, and there are gaps all around the banister that are quite ugly. Installer said we need to use quarter round, but this area between the railing and new floor is almost flat. What can be done to fill this very noticeable gap?

I'm in the process of replacing a tub with a walk-in shower, incorporating a pre-made base and walls. The blue tape marks the location of the old tub and overflow drain, which I need to replace and re-route under the new shower base drain hole. The challenge I'm facing is the limited space available for installing a p-trap and ensuring proper slope. Does anyone have recommendations on how to properly plumb this? Thanks!

The use of a propress head is recommended for securing pipes in place during vertical soldering applications. This technique is especially useful for prefabricated parts, enabling optimal positioning and streamlined soldering processes. Conversely, horizontal capping can be a difficult task, particularly when working with 2-inch or copper-to-brass connections. ๐Ÿ’ก๐Ÿ”ฉ๐Ÿ‘

This ceiling was primed with contract matt, causing the durable matt topcoat to fail over time.

Even a lot of decorators use โ€˜cheap mattโ€™ as the โ€˜mist coatโ€™ on bare plaster. However, itโ€™s the wrong thing to do, especially in a bathroom. We always advise you follow manufacturersโ€™ and go with the primer they tell you to.

We had a plumber do all new plumbing in this bathroom. We've tiled and now we're ready to install the shower fixtures. I think this plastic piece needs to be removed but not sure how. What am I missing here?
