Bath tub Gripes
Comments (17)The last time I took a bath, I think I filled the tub with about 6 inches of water. BIG mistake! When this whale-size fanny sat down, it caused a tidal wave of the Perfect Storm proportions! Our fiberglass tub was so uncomfortable, I think I got more kinks in my neck from the bath. When it was time to get out, I had the presence of mind to let out the water ... what little water was left in the tub! I don't remember how I got out. I tend to block out traumatic experiences. I don't think I could even get into a claw foot tub now! I have trouble lifting my Bozo The Clown-size feet into a small tub. My favorite thing is to sit on my shower bench, put my shower head with the long hose on fire hose setting and just massage my shoulders, arms, legs and feet with it. I have been known to fall asleep in the shower as a result of it. But then ... I fall asleep at my computer at work so that doesn't mean much! Thanks for the hilarious story, toomuch. Luckily Bob is asleep and not giving me strange looks for laughing out loud....See MoreHELP!!! I'm about to give up!! Need a 60x30 tub.
Comments (3)We ordered an MTI whirlpool airbath combo tub from tubzlady.com and in the process found a very knowledgeable and helpful person named Koren who patiently answered our many questions. I'm not affiliated with the site but, since we had such a positive buying experience, I do recommend them. Their site is very easy to search by size and it has quite a few 60 x 30 tubs. Here is a link that might be useful: The tubzlady website...See MoreFinished master bath-- tub, blue and white
Comments (17)NaRo - i know it has been a few years but i am redoing my master bath and saw your thread because of the york tub we want to put in. I also want to do a corner shower very similar to what you have. Can you post or send me a picture of it to the ceiling and the measurements, including shower door width? Thank you! The master bath looks great!...See MoreMB Bathtub drains slowly and at same time toilets don't flush properly
Comments (10)You are basicly saying "teach me how to snake a sewer line". Do you realize plumbers teach assistants by showing them? Do you realize pros often need to walk all the way around a house to figure out how to approach clearing a drain? Do you realize that machines large enough for 4" lines are much too heavy for average men to carry up a ladder onto a roof? Do you realize large sewer augers are dangerous? More than a few got broken arms and/or living daylights slaped out of them when a power snake hung and threw a loop in snake between machine and cleanout (which they routinely do). There are things in life (like driving cars) that are better left to the experienced individuals until proper training is undertaken. If you still feel you must push forward,rent a machine with 3/4tr cable and put it down toilet where wax was replaced (yes I know,but that's another place where experience pays). Have a helper run water while you operate snake. If water starts rising up toilet line ask helper to slow down or stop before flooding floor. When helper is unable to flood toilet line you have cleared the line....See MoreBrittney E
