Replacing bath faucet and shower in 1966 Sovereign

mercredi 17 décembre 2014

Hi,

I am replacing the entire plumbing system in my 1966 Sovereign because there were leaks from frozen pipes and the faucets leak. The faucets, tub, and sink are still the original but I want to replace with new faucets, shower, and pex pipes.

I am stuck with getting access to the fittings that connect the shower and bath sink faucets. The small holes in the sink that give access to the compression fittings are too small for my hand, a tool, a flashlight, and my eye to fit in. Seriously, they are 5 inches wide! I thought of removing the sink but the sink won't come out with the faucet attached because the faucet is hooked to an inflexible copper pipe. I am contemplating cutting a big hole in the side of the sink but wanted to check with you all first in case I am missing an obvious trick.

Now the truth: I have been trying to get in the holes for 3 days and have actually had visions about this bathroom that would not be legal to share in the forum. Thank you for your help!
