"I have an older home with small bathrooms. We were interested in replacing a tub/shower with a walk-in shower. We wanted something simple and affordable. Jalen took measurements and listened to what we wanted. He was in constant contact throughout the process of choosing what we wanted and even offered ideas and suggestions for things we didn’t know we wanted. He was always available for any questions we had. They removed the old tub/shower and installed the walk-in shower in one day and came back the next morning to apply the sealant. They did an excellent job and we couldn’t be happier with the results."
"Cody with FlowPro Plumbing did an excellent job in replacing two toilets in our home in Sunset, La. He removed the old toilets and took them away without leaving a mess. While here he also cleared a water line to the bathtub that was clogged with rust. Cody and his helper were very professional, and I would not hesitate to recommend his services."

"it went well, I just think prices are too high. He was very knowledgeable and knew what he was doing. He removed the toilet, replaced the wax seal, and replaced the flange also, reset the toilet. He had all his tools, except that he recommended i pour weed killer around the flange, he found some roots. He did not have any of that, I had to use mine."

Yes, you can pour water down the toilet to help it flush. For each flush, you’ll need 1 to 2 gallons of water for newer toilets or 3 to 5 gallons of water for older toilets. Rather than dumping the entire bucket in all at once, pour the water in slowly for the best results. If you’re pouring water down the toilet to help it flush after a clog, only use 1 gallon of hot water.
While a toilet dripping on the outside can be caused by condensation, a toilet that is constantly dripping on the inside is usually caused by a deteriorated flapper. This is one of the most common types of toilet leaks. As the flapper degrades, it won’t seal properly, and water will constantly leak into the toilet.
Yes, flushing a clogged toilet can make it overflow. While flushing the toilet may push enough pressure through the system to dislodge the clog, this is unlikely. Your best bet is to use a plunger and hope the suction can break up whatever is blocking the pipe. If this doesn’t work, use a plumbing auger or call a pro to help.
Yes, you can clean a toilet tank with white vinegar. Before you do, shut off the water supply to the toilet. Then, flush it to empty the tank. Next, combine one part vinegar with one part water in a spray bottle and spray the mixture inside the tank. Let it sit for 10 minutes, then rinse away the vinegar by pouring clean water into the tank. Make sure the tank is empty, then dip a scrub brush in vinegar and clean the tank’s inside walls. Turn the water back on and flush again to rinse away the vinegar.
You generally cannot replace a 10-inch rough-in toilet with a 12-inch model without making significant plumbing updates. A 12-inch rough-in toilet will not fit a 10-inch rough-in space because the floor drain is in the wrong position. To accommodate the larger toilet, you would need to move the drainpipe, which could cost between $0.75 and $30 per linear foot, plus labor. In most cases, it is more cost-effective and simpler to purchase a new 10-inch rough-in toilet. However, it is possible to install a 10-inch rough-in toilet in a 12-inch space by using a longer connector.
