"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

Yes, you can pour water down the toilet to help it flush. For each flush, you’ll need 1 to 2 gallons of water for newer toilets or 3 to 5 gallons of water for older toilets. Rather than dumping the entire bucket in all at once, pour the water in slowly for the best results. If you’re pouring water down the toilet to help it flush after a clog, only use 1 gallon of hot water.

Most people choose PVC, or polyvinyl chloride/plastic, for their sewer line material. PVS has many advantages over other types of pipes. Mainly, PVC can resist corrosion and chemical damage, is lightweight (making it easier to install), is budget-friendly, and has an impressive life span (typically around 100 years).

You need a pipe threader tool to thread a pipe. This speciality plumbing tool comes with various size die heads to suit different sizes of pipe. The teeth inside the die heads cut through the pipe as you ratchet the die head. You can purchase a pipe threader set or rent one.

Depending on the layout of your bathroom, you may be able to replace a shower valve without removing the tile. The existing hole needs to be large enough to remove your old valve and fit your new valve. If the hole is too small, you’ll need to cut into the wall and remove some of the tile.

Most of the time, homeowners are responsible for replacing a main water shut-off valve. This is because the property owner also owns the water service line from the shut-off valve near their property line to their house. That means they must maintain, repair, or replace it when needed.
