I am planning to finish a roughed in basement bathroom. Could a kind person direct me to a good reference/how-to book.
I have done a few plumbing projects around the house and regard myself quite handy. However, with respect to basement bathroom, I feel like a layperson.
Regards, :)

Go to a book store or library and pick up a set of three books published by Audel.
The set is called, PLUMBERS AND PIPEFITTERS LIBRARY by Jules Oravetz, Sr.
One book instructs you on, drainage, fittings and fixtures, another instructs you on, Installation, heating and welding and the third will cover materials, tools and calculations
These are books I've used for years as reference guides, both in the field and in answering questions. Of course if you have questions we will be more then happy to help. Good luck, Tom
