To access the wall, go behind the bathroom that is next to the kitchen. Remove the sheetrock and drill into the concrete wall to extract the concrete, as the shower system is integrated within it. Afterward, return to the bathroom to cut the stone wall tile, using a template to shape the cut for the template that will be installed subsequently. The template will be placed in front of the cut opening. Continue with the removal of the current shower body system. For the installation of the new shower body system, copper piping will be utilized to connect back to the existing galvanized pipe, along with a new valve. This process includes repairing the spout piping and installing a new shower head. Furthermore, two shut-off valves have been installed to assist in any future emergencies. The shower system should be accessible from behind; the owner was advised to install an access panel to enable water shut-off without the need to turn off the water supply for the entire building.
