What happens here

To gain access to the internal piping, use a sheetrock saw to carefully cut a section of the wall (sheetrock) around the pipe from the inside. This opening will allow you to hold the pipe securely with a backup wrench while removing the old spigot. Be mindful of any other wires or structures within the wall cavity while cutting.

Goal: Cut open the wall to expose the internal pipe for support

Tools and materials

What they say

you're going to want to put a backup wrench of some sort on the back side unless they've actually got this pipe secured some way and see the pipe coming in right here these little sheetrock saws by Milwaukee they're pretty awesome I just don't want this 90 to kind of Pop apart or something so now we're going to take a crescent wrench kind of hold this as a backup right here get all channel locks on there
