whats wrong with the plumbing? aren't you required to have 6 fittings in a 3' section. I also like using push connectors in a sheetrock ceiling, gives me that techno look in about a year (pretty colors)

I normally don't approve of this kind of workmanship, but in the short time I had to complete, I deputized Hosea, the GC , my wife and any other available set of hands. Hosea did good and learned how to use internal MC clamps and grounding screws.

Looks like the poor plumber had to put a couple extra fittings in to get around one of those pesky blue boxes

Aside from that it looks pretty good & I'm sure about normal for the area. I like drains being piped with white pvc over abs personally, just sayin

The plumbers got my respect, the licensee in his 60's was there working and overseeing the help. Ironically the job is directly across the street from a plumbing co where the licensee wears kakis and penny loafers and sits in his office all day.

Sweet.

I just did a job where the owner had his dad do the framing and drywall.


He was 80, and would smoke any 20 year old.
