Hello folks, kirk and Jason here with kirk giordano plastering,
today what we're going to be doing is stuck going around uh this access door
we've got plumbing accessories here quite a bit of them and they've had issues with it so
inspector tells them stick in a access door so fella's gonna install this and what we're
gonna do is tie all the stucco into it pretty necessary i've done work myself where i've had to
include this because you're always going in and out of these uh traps so you'll see us tying it
all back together and tying this together and then the finish to match as we get there okay guys we
finally got this access door in uh we had to put a few shims here and there but it opens and closes
real nice gives great access to the pipes what you want to remember with this is this right here
has got to be true and plumb with this guy and we there's a lot of wood around here rather than my
going to my truck and grabbing a straight edge i can use this piece of first stick as one
so the corners line here to here and it's got a line which it does to this guy right here
that way when we're done with the stucco it lines up perfectly and the stucco on the soffit equals
here so everything has got to be true and plumb in all directions when we're done perfect okay guys
also important is when you've got pipes like this you got to cut around them really really well
we used a sick flex polyurethane caulking and that stuff is nasty you get it all over you so
what i did is i squeezed a whole bunch just using a stick anyway there you have it that's
how you water tight it and when i come to do the actual stuff i'll show you guys how to do that too
okay guys this little access door which is great i have any problems with any of these fittings
you just open this door here and it allows you to get access to it and what i'm going to do here is
i'm just going to build this up thick i've got luminite in my material
and where those pipes are, i'm going to use a pipe trowel to get them back in there
okay, some of the fancy tools in the trade this pipe trowel allows me to
get back there, but first, i'm just going to take it off of here throw it in there
just like that now i use my pipe trowel and go behind the pipes go underneath it go this way
and finish my job
there we go
again, i'm using an accelerator for the plastic when i'm not here all-day
This video does not show you how to blaster but the importance of an access door. These
guys save your butts in time when you have issues with water pipes. Anyway, i'm gonna go ahead and
finish this out, float it, and I'll show you the completion of it, okay guys? We are done. All i'm
doing now is i'm cleaning this access door. You can see underneath there clean up the access door.
Again this way, any issues with any of these pipes, they can go ahead and correct them.
When you're doing stuff like this, you need the proper tools to get inside tight little areas
between pipes. They're called pipe trucks. You can pick them up out to building supply in Oakland,
and then you just float everything like, so there you have it. This is kirk with
kirk giordano plastering thanks, jay, for doing the video. We'll see you folks on the next one.
