sorry about the camera angles I'm new to this and haven't got a tripod yet.

Great video, thanks. A relative new DIY person here - can I ask, did you have studding on the rigght hand side, and gap --> solid wall on left? So 2 different length screws? Also why did you only use 1 screw on the right bracket? CHeers

Thanks for watching I could only put one in as the pipe would have been in the way for the other screw. No didn't have stud work just a rubbish brick so put a longer screw in to get a better fixing.

@@primalrenovations7427 Ah, I see what you're saying. I've a similar job to do for a family member (So don't want to take it on unless I'm happy I won't screw it up.) The wall is a solid garage wall, I'm guessing dry-lined, and tiled. Looking at the protruding pipes, I can see some evidence of plaster around them, for some reason. So I guess I will need to put a rawlplug on long screws, and try and get to the brick wall, which I hate doing. Might have to politely refuse this one - we are currently on good terms 🙂

@concunningham9795 It's easier than it looks if you drill a slightly bigger hole through the tile like a 6/8mm then use the 5.5mm drill bit for the brick you can pass the red plug through the wall tiles into the brick and just use a screwdriver to tighten it up.

@@primalrenovations7427 Cheers for that - I'm looking at other things like CoreFix, and DuoPower - all new to me. The CoreFix seems to be quite proud of the Tile, so I think this might be an issue for the base of the mounting brackets that slip over the pipes. I'll hold fire until I'm up there next weekend - there's only a small part of the wall tiled for the shower. I might poke a few judicious holes in a different part of the wall and try to verify that it's D&D, and figure out how much of a void there is. If you ever find yourself in Ireland, I owe you a pint!

wow how tricky is that !!!! Well done! Esp getting the 150 centres bang on I have a stud wall with nothing to fix to behind Do you think smaller pipe holes would help the bar shower fixing?

Yes smaller holes would help. You could also put some wooden noggins in behind the plasterboard if you can.

I would have filled the holes where the tails poked through with CB1 as well as the smaller holes you’d filled in after the fittings. 👍🏻 💂‍♂️🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🇬🇧
