image.jpgHello, I'm renovating our bathroom and have a question regarding the stub out for our toilet supply. They used 3/8" copper, but I'm not 100% sure what I'm looking at. Does the old shutoff appear to be a sweat connection? It appears they did something over to the right as well.
Would the best course of action be cutting it behind the old shutoff and using a 3/8" compression inlet shutoff valve?
I could sweat as well if I had to. But finding a 3/8" - 3/8" valve proved difficult.
Thanks in advance. See photo.
Ps- we had a guy tile and I wasn't thrilled that he notched the tile instead of drilling it.
 
If it was my bathroom, tile guy would be doing that one over. Lazy.

That valve is soldered on. If you can get a 3/8 compression to suit your needs what's what it's looking like you gotta do.

Ideally, I would of found that pipe and increased it to 1/2". Lots of common options regarding valves, sleeves and escutcheons to dress up your bathroom
