Hi! I am Drew Fenn, a professional home inspector. I am here for Expertvillage.com. Today, we are going to install a shower head and I will show you how and the video is produced by Black Dog Video. You can visit blackdogvideo.biz on the internet. We are going to attach the bar to the wall now. What we need to do is pry off the decorative covers, you can use a screwdriver if you have to or you can just pull it off. So we have decided we are going to put it here, we want to check the bottom and the top and make it symmetric and I need a horizontal mark on it. So, I got a horizontal there, then we are going to center it in the top within the tile. So I have got a good eye, if you are not sure you can use⦠just mark it, you can measure both sides so you get it centered. So, everything is symmetric when we are done. Now we are going to drill the holes in the wall. Make sure you put some glasses on to protect your eyes, you got the masonry bit we are just going to line it up, we have got this in a high speed and drill through the tile. Now I have marked only one hole rather than both of them in case we are off a little bit on this one and off a little bit on the other one they will compensate. So we are going to drill this one first, put the bar on and then mark bottom.
