Q: Can you caulk a wobbly toilet?

• <div><p>Putting caulk around a toilet&rsquo;s base where it touches the flooring can help hold the toilet in place. A more effective way is using caulk with plastic shim wedges. Place the shims underneath the base to steady and stabilize the toilet. Add some caulk to help keep the shims in place and provide a stronger and more lasting stabilization effect.</p></div>

Q: Does the subfloor go under the toilet flange?

• <div><p>The toilet flange anchors to the subfloor, usually with wood screws or cement screws, but most of it should sit above floor level at full height. When a flange is flush with the subfloor or below it, it can lead to the creation of leak paths.</p></div>

Q: What do I do if nothing comes out of my faucet?

• <div><p>If nothing is coming out of your faucet, you could have frozen pipes, a clogged faucet, or your water supply could be shut off. First, check your shut-off valves. If it's a hot sunny day, you can rule out frozen pipes and look closer at your aerator for signs of mineral deposits. Removing the aerator and cleaning it out can often return water flow. If temperatures are below freezing, you may have frozen pipes. Knowing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/what-do-if-your-pipes-freeze.htm">what to do when pipes freeze</a> is essential for thawing your pipes and preventing them from bursting.</p></div>

Q: Which showerhead is best?

• <div><p>If you are in the market for a new showerhead, consider investing in a metal option rather than plastic. Metal showerheads are more durable and long-lasting, and bacteria tend to survive and grow better on plastic. Besides the materials, what works best for you will depend on personal preference. Maybe you would prefer a showerhead with as many settings as possible, or you would like a handheld one. </p></div>

They installed fascia (made repairs) and gutters with 16 inside/outside corners, not an easy task. They also installed gutter guards to complete the job. Both management and installers were polite and professional. We are more than happy with the results.
