"He was here within a short amount of time checked it all out then med sure it all was running perfect. He went beyond that and told me how my line needed to b more even. I thought that was totally fantastic. He actually cared. That's rare. Most just want to get it over with and leave on a weekend but he took his time to help me. Very nice person. I would gladly recommend him to anyone needing a plumber. I will call him again if I have future issues."

Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts
DIY installation of a walk-in tub is not recommended as it is a challenging and risky project that requires advanced plumbing knowledge. Professional installation is crucial to ensure a proper and safe setup, water-tight conditions, adherence to local building codes, and the preservation of your product's warranty.
You can remove air from your shower pipes in a few simple steps. Turn off the water at the main water supply and open all the faucets in your home, starting with those closest to the water supply and working away from those. Let the faucets run dry, then flush all the toilets in your home until there is no more water in them. From there, turn the water supply back on and let it flow for 10 to 15 minutes until the sputtering stops. To finish, turn off your faucets and flush your toilets in the reverse order.
Pot fillers are often outfitted with cold water only. When you need water for boiling, always choose cold water because hot water may contain more dissolved minerals from the pipe, offsetting the flavor of the food. In kitchens where the filler is used often, it may make sense to route hot water too, but this is rare, and even professional kitchens seldom have this option installed.
The time it takes to install or replace a faucet depends on the complexity of the job. A plumber can typically replace a kitchen faucet in 30 minutes to one hour. A standard installation often takes a plumber one to two hours, which is a similar amount of time for an experienced DIYer performing a simple replacement. However, the job can take much longer if there are complications. For example, if the plumbing system needs modifications, or if you are installing a wall-mounted or freestanding model that requires opening up walls or flooring to run new plumbing, the project could take as long as seven to eight hours for a professional to complete.
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.
