See the plumbing work that prepares a remodeled space for its new fixtures. Ten illustrated stages follow controlled access, water and vented drain installation, shower and tub rough-in, and coordination before the walls are closed.

The proposed fixture layout is coordinated with existing service routes and the available wall space. Selective openings allow the team to review connection positions while protecting retained stonework, cabinetry, and flooring.
Affected water lines are isolated and disconnected openings are securely closed while the rough-in area is prepared. Removed fittings are kept separate from the remaining system and retained finishes stay protected.
Independent hot and cold risers are secured to blocking at the planned vanity position. The capped connections are coordinated with the selected faucet, cabinet, and future finished wall.
The fixture drain inlet is set within the service wall, with drainage continuing downward and the vent rising above the connection. Separate water outlets remain accessible beside the drain-and-vent assembly.
The toilet drainage branch is routed through the opened floor bay and supported between the joists. A capped riser identifies the rough connection while fixture location, drainage, and the vent arrangement are coordinated.
The shower valve and outlet are secured to backing, with separate water feeds and a supported riser. The selected valve is positioned for its compatible trim and the future finished wall assembly.
The tub drain and floor-filler assembly are positioned around the selected fixture dimensions. The filler base is anchored to its supporting structure, and the drain remains separate from the water connections.
The rough-in receives the supports, insulation, and protection required for its materials and route. Vulnerable penetrations are protected while the framing and remaining connections stay accessible.
Connection positions, pipe routes, supports, and access are reviewed while the installation remains exposed. Required tests and rough inspections are coordinated before the work is concealed.
The coordinated rough-in is documented before finishes cover the service wall. Photos record visible routes and connection positions for the project team, alongside the required plans, testing, and inspection records.
