    Measure 3 times. Cut once. Research your product, confirm your space, and DO NOT go with all carpeting.

    Prepare yourself for the worst possible thing you could uncover. I had to rebuild the exterior wall of the house where the old shower was. Totally rotted out, full of ants, etc. Fun stuff.

    Oh....and everything you do will take at least four times longer than you think it will.

    I learned that I really love PEX. I have always hated plumbing, but using PEX tubing makes everything better.

    Make sure you have the proper tools, don't try and 'save time' by taking shortcuts, ALWAYS read instructions, and have patience :)
