Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts

Although linear drains allow water to flow quickly and efficiently, they tend to clog more easily than traditional drains. Linear drains are flush with the shower floor, allowing soap scum and hair to potentially build up. They’re also longer than other drains, allowing for more space to let debris fall into the drainpipe. 

Knowing which type of bathtub faucet you have is the first step toward finding a replacement. The faucet can be deck mount—meaning installed on the tub itself—or wall mount—meaning installed in the wall. Some bathtub faucets are freestanding and installed on the floor. There are also single- and double-handle models. Some faucets have a diverter on the spout to move the water from the showerhead to the bathtub spout, while others have a third handle that acts as a diverter.

Hiring a professional for plumbing repair costs about $325 on average. Depending on the repair, the price range for plumbing repair can be as low as $75 up to $4,000 or more. A major cost factor is the plumber’s expertise level:

  • Handyperson with varying experience: $25–$75 per hour

  • Apprentice with less than four years of experience: $45–$90 per hour

  • Journeyperson with over four years of experience and passed a state exam: $60–$110 per hour

  • Master plumber with more than seven years of experience and a state exam: $80–$200 per hour

Regular inspections, promptly fixing leaks, and using water-efficient fixtures ensure plumbing systems operate efficiently in the long term.

According to the Uniform Plumbing Code (UPC), the distance between your trap and the vent should be no more than 6 feet. For your vent to work properly, it needs to feed into the drain line within 6 feet of trapways that connect to it. Using this formula, you should be able to determine whether you will need multiple vent lines.
