FAST and EASY Way to Raise Your Shower Head on a Budget!

Okay, so when you're standing here and you're like this and you're like boom, because the shower head is spraying right into your mouth, this is not going to work. Hey folks, that fixing guy here and today I'm going to show you how to extend this, how to make this taller without actually getting in your wall and having to bust out tile and raise your shower head up. It's super easy to excel these parts all over the place and it really turns out looking pretty cool. So come along, let's get the fixin'. Okay, so the standard height for this is 80 and the minimum height is 72, which is where we're at right now. The first thing we're going to do is we're just going to take this old one off, right? We'll grab it in a just little jaw, counterclockwise. My bad boy is on. My bad boy is on there. Then the easiest way I found to take this off, instead of just taking a wrench and marring everything off, because this really is still nice, that shower head is still in good shape. You can sell it on Craigslist, give it away, whatever, right, sell it somewhere and then you just take this and it gives you enough leverage that you're able to just go ahead and spin that right out. Okay, that all looks pretty good. So then we're looking at installing one of these. This bad boy right here is going to raise it up to where we want it, all right? This is going to, it looks a little funky, right, but it's going to be awesome. It's going to really work out. When you put this up here, like bam, it's going to be hooked right up. So we're going to go ahead. We're going to put some Teflon and some pipe dope on this side. We're going to put a little bit of Teflon on this side and we'll get this put in place. So I'm just going to grab a little Teflon. This is the side for the wall and we're going to go with three or four wraps and we're out of Teflon. So we'll just use the rest of it. We're going to have to get some more for the other side for sure. Okay, so that's all good up there. And we're going to put a little pipe dope in here as well. My pipe dope choice, Megalock, good for plastic and metal. That white don't have to carry a couple different things. Works really well. I'll put a link for this stuff in the description box below.

We need a discussion to cover up the wall, to cover up that hole. So we'll just give this a discussion out of here. You definitely want to put this on first.
