    Default LF a Plumber to do bathroom rough in

    I finally decided to develop my basement after 8 years and I'm the idiot that didn't get it roughed in the first place lol
    So now I need someone to come in and tear up the concrete to put in the drains for shower, sink, toilette. I'm putting the bathroom right beside the drain that is coming down the wall so it shouldn't be too bad.

    So does anybody have a recommendation for a plumber or that has had this done... How much did you end up paying?

    Let me know if you need any help with the electrical. Fort Mac fires got me sitting around the house and I'm getting bored. Need a little work to keep me busy. Good luck with the plumbing.

    Had lots of good experiences with Pete the Plumber, My cousin did the same type of rough in, I think it was like $1200 but that's just what comes to mind.

    You actually made the better decision by not roughing it in. It's incredibly rare that the plumbing goes in the right spots.

    The guy that did my basement said that he's had the rough ins placed properly once out of the hundreds of basements he's done.

    well...don't you have to know exactly where the toilet, and shower are going to be? even specifically the shower pan you want with the dimensions of the drain?

    Yes, but what happens is that the builder gets sloppy and misses things by a few inches here and there. Nobody notices until you actually start to build.
