Hi everyone,

Working on a bathroom overhaul. We have pex running for our supply lines to toilet and sink etc. We have the pictured copper stubs that pex gets attached to. Now I am wonder what is the correct procedure to attach a shut off valve to the toilet supply but not have the final show the copper pipe.

I have read that you can solder a shut off valve right onto the copper but again we want a chrome look. Should we also be soldering before attaching the pex?
