Plumbing Rough-In

I didn't get to choose my plumber until just recently. I should have been a bit more organised, so he was lined-up earlier.

Anyway, yesterday our plumber did the "rough-in" for the pipes in the sub-floor area. He has left the risers for each pipe glued into position, so that the carpenter has to make a round cut-out in the platform flooring sheets as they are installed. Sometimes they don't put the risers into position, but they have to trust that the carpenter will make a hole for it, or at least mark the exact positon for a hole.

To do the rough-in, the plumber needs to know the dimensions for toilets, showers and baths, so he knows where to put each riser-pipe. Fortunately, we had chosen these nearly a year ago.
