Question

cover up water lines


Hi,
I am turning a building that is finished inside into an efficiency apartment for my son. We ran the water lines along the wall so we wouldn't have to tear into all that drywall. Is there anything made to cover this or do you just build something around it to cover it up? Thanks

Agree, build a small 'chase' around it....basically, box it in with 2x3 framing and sheetrock...
