"Christian Cornes replaced two leaking hose bibs at our home on a Friday, I think he was here 2 hrs after I began looking for plumbers on Angi. He was done in an hour. He noticed the sprinkler valves were leaking. He followed up on Monday and we asked him to take care of that. He came in about 45 min and repaired that issue as well. Excellent service!!"

"Marco is amazing! Our water heater was leaking and we had no idea how long it had been going on, so we were very concerned. We contacted Home Advisor and Marco called us within minutes. He was here in less than 2 hours. The price was reasonable and he explained everything very clearly. He was back in less than 2 hours with all the parts and a new water heater. Install was completed 2 hours later. Who would have thought you could get that kind of same day service!! I called a couple of other plumbers before contacting Home Advisor, and still have not heard back from them. :( Marco owns a small family business so not only do I recommend him for his price, response time and super friendly customer service, but it feels great to support a small business instead of a big box store. Definitely recommend him and will use him for all my plumbing needs in the future!"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

You can temporarily patch a leaking copper pipe using epoxy putty or adhesive tape. These are not permanent solutions, and you will eventually need to remove and replace the damaged portion of the pipe. 

For a smaller pinhole, you can solder it closed using plumbing flux. Again, this is only a temporary solution, but it will give you time to hire a plumber and go over your options.

The amount of time it takes to repipe a bathroom depends on how much piping needs to be replaced and how accessible the pipes are. Smaller, easily accessible jobs may only take a few hours, but projects that require drywall removal or removing old pipes or large clogs can take several days.

Start by unscrewing the overflow valve, which is located on the wall of your tub between the floor drain and the tub spout. Gently insert a plumbing snake down into the pipe, move it back and forth, and pull it out. Remove any hair, debris, and soap scum that comes out with it. Repeat the process until the snake comes out clean, and then reinstall the cap on your overflow valve.

Depending on the issue, you have a good shot at fixing a leaking sink yourself. If you have some plumbing experience or are comfortable with DIY jobs, you can clean the P trap, tighten nuts, replace washers, and replace shut-off valve stems on your own. For more complicated jobs, such as repairing a garbage disposal, calling a pro may be the way to go.

The P-trap is an essential part of the shower drain and is installed directly below it. It mainly functions as a barrier, preventing sewer gases and their odors from seeping into your bathroom. It also helps catch clogs so they don’t end up deeper in your home’s plumbing, where they’re more difficult to remove.
