Occasionally, during inspections, we find some things a homeowner has done (that they shouldn't):

Temporary SupportTemporary Support
This item is considered a temporary fix for support. In order for it to be correct, the code calls for 3" minimum diameter with other installation instructions by local codes. Most manufacturers state right on the box uses should be inspected by an engineering firm for load capacity. Always consult your local building inspector.

Flexi Drain
Although this item is sold in Wisconsin it is not accepted in many communities as a proper repair to a drain. Always consult your local and State building codes for correct materials for remodeling.
