Q: What are common causes of commercial drain blockages?

• <div><p>Food grease, soap buildup, paper products, and tree roots often cause serious clogs.</p></div>

Q: When should I leave water dripping?

• <div><p>You should leave the water dripping when temperatures are below 20 degrees for three hours or longer or your power goes out in the winter. Leave the water dripping until temperatures are consistently above 20 degrees and you&rsquo;ve checked for frozen pipes. With water movement in your pipes, ice is less likely to form, and your pipes are less likely to burst. The drip relieves pressure, preventing burst and leaking pipes.</p></div>

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: How much does it cost to fix a knocking pipe?

• <div><p><a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/plumber-cost.htm">Plumbing repairs cost</a><b> $180 to $500</b>, depending on the scope and urgency of the issue. A knocking pipe is usually caused by a problem with the water pressure or air pockets, so the costs will likely fall closer to the low end of that range. Pipe replacement will likely cost more than that since it&rsquo;s a major project.</p></div>

Q: Do you need plumber’s putty to install a sink drain?

• <div><p>No, you don&rsquo;t need to use plumber&rsquo;s putty to install a sink drain. Other options are available, such as silicone putty or silicone caulk. Plumber&rsquo;s putty is the traditional method and it&rsquo;s easier to work with and easier to remove. It doesn&rsquo;t need to dry before using. Silicone putty should dry before you use the drain. </p></div>
