Q: Can polybutylene pipes last 30 years?

• <div><p>At most, polybutylene pipes last 10 to 15 years. The material is simply not durable enough to withstand some of the chemical elements found in our water supply, such as fluoride and chlorine. These pipes tend to deteriorate quickly and lead to leaks or even pipe bursts. If your home still has polybutylene pipes, we recommend replacing them as soon as possible to prevent major water damage in your home.</p></div>

Q: Is pipe size inside or outside diameter?

• <div><p>The size of a pipe isn&rsquo;t always the outside or inside diameter. Rather, it&rsquo;s a nominal diameter that depends on the type of pipe. For male pipes, you&rsquo;ll need to measure the outside diameter. For female pipes, you&rsquo;ll need to measure the inside diameter. You&rsquo;ll then need to use a nominal diameter conversion chart to get the actual pipe size you&rsquo;d buy in the store.</p></div>

Q: How many water shut-off valves does a house have?

• <div><p>A house has two main water shut-off valves. One water valve location is inside the house. If your home is connected to a municipal water supply, you&rsquo;ll find it on the perimeter of the house on the side that faces the street. If your home uses well water, that valve could come in from any side. The other main valve is near where your property meets the street.</p></div>

Q: How much do kitchen plumbing repairs cost?

• <div><p>Kitchen plumbing repairs range from simple to complex, with the costs reflecting that variety. Some repairs require a new part, while others call for replacing an entire appliance. For example, some of the most common kitchen plumbing repairs include:</p><ul><li><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-do-dishwasher-repairs-cost.htm">Dishwasher</a>: $75&ndash;$600</p></li><li><p>Garbage disposal: $75&ndash;$400</p></li><li><p>Ice maker water line: $100&ndash;$200</p></li><li><p>Kitchen sink clog: $100&ndash;$400</p></li><li><p>P-trap repair: $200&ndash;$325</p></li></ul><p></p></div>

Q: Do plumbers haul away the old toilet?

• <div><p>Many plumbers include removing and disposing of the old toilet as part of their service package. However, it&rsquo;s best to ask before signing a contract, as removal isn&rsquo;t guaranteed. If the plumber doesn&rsquo;t take the old toilet, you have several options, including donation, recycling, junk removal, and bulk waste services..</p></div>
