Nice work Jeff, I didn't know they sold texture in a spray can.

Yes this was one of those times where the texture matched perfectly

One thing to note, a bathroom switch may not be located next to a shower or tub.

Correct and this is a guest bath with neither

Love watching these tutorials!👍

Switches outside the bathroom are a common thing in Massachusetts, where I live. I'm told that at one time many decades ago, there was a clause in the state electrical code that said that outlets and switches had to be some minimum number of feet (like six feet) from any source of running water in the same room. Since bathrooms tended to be small, making compliance difficult, the workaround was to put the light switch outside the room. It continued because decades of Mass. residents had grown accustomed to the placement.

@billd66 yes and nowadays we have GFCI outlets that solve the distance to water issues.

How is that even legal? (Hello from the UK)

@@jonny5alive123incorrect, you can still have plate type light switches in a UK bathroom, it just needs to be outside the zones.

Thanks for the great helpful video

Never seen the claw before. That's different.

It's an awesome tool

Light switches outide the bathroom have got to be the No. 1 installation fail.

It was big in Massachusetts for a while

I came here for the Europeans comments 😂

"Switches (including wall switches) controlling luminaires … shall be located not less than 1 m from a bathtub or shower stall (this distance measured horizontally between the switch and the bathtub or shower stall) without piercing a wall, partition, or similar obstacle" not an issue without a bathtub or shower, but still important to consider if anyone is planning on doing this

We use Wago’s much more efficient. And the next time somebody wants in the box for whatever reason nothing twisted.
