On a Greenville new-construction project, we were brought in to independently verify the rough plumbing before the slab pour locked everything in place, and it’s a good thing we were. Our inspection turned up six real problems: no pressure test had ever been run on the water service or drain piping, the master bathroom sink drain was routed inside a structural beam (a likely slab-inspector rejection), the master shower drain wasn’t boxed for the pour and wasn’t centered in the shower drop-down, a utility sink drain was back-falling at its elbow after the cement crew pulled its stack support, the washer stack was leaning badly, and the water service was running undersized 1-inch PEX where 1 1/2-inch would be needed to avoid pressure problems at the faucets down the line. Every one of these is far cheaper to fix before concrete goes down than after.
