I recently had a plumber do the underground rough-in for
a new shower and toilet in my basement. The rough-in was
not completed 100%, so I intend on doing it myself.
1. All of the concrete was replaced except for where the
shower trap would be located. There is a hole where
the end of the 1 1/2 or 2" pipe is. Do I just install
a standard trap, surround w/ gravel, pour the concrete,
and install the vertical pipe leaving a few inches
above the shower floor for cut-back?
keep in mind, this is in my basement where the floor is
not level. I plan on leveling the floor w/ a concrete
product, but I would prefer pooring all the concrete in
one shot. Thanks for your help.
