"West Shore Homes installed a new shower. They were so friendly and worked efficiently. I was expecting to have to clean up after they were done, but they did all of that for me. My new shower is beautiful and I am happy with the work that was done and each employee that I had contact with"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

It is generally safe to stay in a house that smells like sewage for a short time, but you should get the problem fixed as soon as possible. While the level of sewer gas is usually low enough to only cause minor symptoms, prolonged inhalation can lead to headaches, nausea, or respiratory irritation. High levels of gas exposure can be more dangerous, and high concentrations of methane—a component of sewer gas—can pose an explosion risk in enclosed spaces. If you smell sewer gas in your home, ventilate the area and call a professional to locate, assess, and fix the problem, as it will not go away on its own.

No, putting new plumber’s tape over old plumber’s tape is not recommended. The old tape connection may not be completely adhered and could cause a leak. 

Instead, remove the old tape completely, clean off the pipe threads with a clean rag and wire brush if needed, then apply new plumber’s tape to make your connection.

Yes, rats can come up through drains. They can crawl through basement floor drains, lateral house drains, and roof drains. Installing rat blockers in your drains is the best way to repel rats and prevent them from entering your pipes. These are one-way valves that allow water and waste to flow out but keep rats from getting in.

It’s usually best to hire a certified master plumber to perform plumbing work in your home. Certified plumbers will be able to tackle most plumbing jobs and will have experience with drainage problems, water supply pipes, and appliances. This type of plumber is the most expensive, but the price is well worth it. You could opt for a journeyperson or an apprentice, which will be more affordable, but the reduced experience means your repair may not be as high-quality. Avoid hiring a handyperson for plumbing work unless you’re dealing with a simple issue, like a clog or a leaky faucet.

PEX pipe is safe for drinking water, though it wasn't always. PEX was introduced in European water supply systems in the 1980s, but early versions of the piping deteriorated when exposed to the higher chlorine levels in U.S. water supplies. Antioxidants were added to PEX piping to meet U.S. potable drinking water standards. Today, it’s commonly used for drinking water.
