"Ruben was a life saver and THE MAN for the job for any Water heater issue. My father's 1991 Reliance heater gave up last night at 4pm. I called around and after ordering from Home Depot, I was sure to used them. But after speaking with multiple plumber and over priced charging me, Ruben was my last hope. He took time to explain the type of heater and his sincerity and professional phone approach sold me. Not only did we paid that evening, but Ruben kept his words and showed up at my parents Placentia home at 0715 as promised and completed the job in no time. He even sent picture to me and it was spotless and done to perfection. I now have a "Friend in the plumbing hook ups " Troy"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

During the winter, pipeworks constrict and don't expand until warm weather comes. If it doesn't get very cold where you live, but you're still having a problem getting outdoor faucet handles to turn, there's probably a build-up under the handle. Mineral build-up is especially common in areas with hard water. Limescale causes faucets and stems to become resistant to turning. Worn parts and debris can also make it impossible to turn a faucet.

A toilet flange secures your toilet in place to the floor, and connects your toilet to the drain pipe that carries its contents to the sewer. Obvious signs that your flange needs replacement include when it can’t keep up with these two functions. If your toilet rocks back and forth or you see leaks coming from the bottom of your toilet, it’s time for a replacement. Other signs that your toilet flange is broken or faulty may include loose tiles or soft flooring around the toilet, and sewage smells.

If your drain doesn’t have metal crosshairs or crossbars, you should use a tub drain extractor. These tools create a grip on the drain so you can turn it using a 1/2-inch ratchet drive, drain key, or wrench. Your drain may not have crosshairs if it's old and broken.

Bleach is generally not recommended for your shower drains. Although diluted bleach can technically help clean your drain, it will not unclog your pipes. In fact, bleach can harm your plumbing system because it’s so powerful. The bleach can change the color of your sink and even corrode metal pipes and fittings.

Often, people reach for bleach because it's already in their house. But it's worth getting a plunger or a drain snake for the job instead. It'll be a lot less money to buy a new plunger than to pay a plumber to repair or replace damaged pipes.

To file a claim against a plumber, you’ll need to contact their liability insurance company. You can ask your plumber for information about their insurer, or you can refer to the documentation you collected before you hired them. Let the company know you need to file a claim, and they’ll provide you with the next steps. Alternatively, you can ask your homeowner’s insurance company to help you file.
