As a former contractor (not plumbing) one of the worst jobs was coming in behind someone else and finishing the job. I assume it's the same with plumbers. You need to tell him when the completion date is going to be...period.

I'm pretty sure Home Depot sells Glacier Bay products

Going to New Mexico with a friend tomorrow to look at an acreage with no house just a few outbuildings and a pole barn. It has a cement floor. He is going to use this as a winter get away and wants to put an apartment in the pole barn. What's the best way to do the plumbing? Cut up the floor or...

This^^^ if you can't solder, hire a plumber.

With that faucet installation probably an under mount sink. Not fun to pull.

get rid of tree?

Shower has no overflow so needs 2" drain to prevent flooding.
