Our cheap house was built around 1950. The plumbing is a nightmare. I
replaced the bathroom faucets, the sink traps and the archaic
in-the-wall kitchen faucets. Every single fix was a chore. I don't
even want to think about replacing the toilet -- mostly because hubby
and BIL did it while I cowered in the living room. They made no pipe
longer than it had to be, which means we have to dig inside the wall to
do anything about the shower head and tub faucets. No. The showers at
the gym work just fine. Nobody needs to shower more than 3/week anyway.
If the kid wants to knock the house down when it's his I'd applaud the
decision if I were still alive.
