"We are pleased with our bath remodel that included a new tub, tub surround and wainscot walls. There was one small problem with the walls due to the ceiling and walls not being plumb however they did go above and beyond by doing more than was was agreed upon by making plumbing improvements, installing a new lighted medicine cabinet and repairing a light fixture. They were very courteous and the installer even made a suggestion for a change that we agreed would be better."
"The issues I ended up having were very complex and I had a rather large scale situation to deal with that was the result of an accidental sewer line sever from another property having work done on their home. SD lining solutions was able to work with me to tell me what I would need done to restore plumbing function to my home. They showed up on time for all the additional appointments I had to make to discuss details with all other parties. I don t know what I would have done without Ben! Most honest hard working guy I have ever met! I even decided to add an additional job for him that he could do for me since he does more than just scoping and locating lines and I found it is a very versatile business he owns after speaking to him and since he would be digging on my property already to fix my problem, I figured I would get this done now too as an after thought with what I had to deal with and only have to have my yard dug up once that way. He worked it out in a way that would allow him to fit part of the job in now that involved the digging and finish it in a couple of weeks because it wasn t an urgent one that I decided to add on."

While plumber’s tape is a great solution for many plumbing problems, there are some times when it’s not the right product for the job at hand.
You shouldn’t use plumber’s tape on pipe connections in any of the following scenarios:
When connecting PVC pipes
If the pipe has wide threads, as water can still leak through the space between the threads
If the pipe has very tight threads, as the tape would prevent a proper connection
If the pipe threads are damaged, which would prevent the tape from providing a watertight seal
If your predicament is similar to any of these, a licensed plumber can help you solve the problem.
While technically possible, it is unlikely that a clogged toilet will fix itself. Clogs caused by water-soluble materials like toilet paper or human waste may eventually break down in the water, allowing flow to resume. However, this can take time, and any clogs from solid objects require manual removal. In most scenarios, especially if you don't have another bathroom, it is best to fix the clog yourself or call a plumber.
Check your basement floor. There’s usually a covered panel in the floor. The valve could also be near a sump pump. If you don’t have a basement, look near your water meter. You may see a rectangular or round cover, which is often clear (allowing you to easily see inside), over the valve.
Frost-free faucets are a smart idea if you live in a region that sees freezing temperatures. These specially designed faucets are typically insulated and feature a shut-off within the house. When temperatures drop, you’ll close the outdoor spigot so that freezing water doesn’t sit in the fixture and cause it to split or crack during cold weather.
The P-trap (or S-trap in older homes) under your shower is designed to prevent sewer gas from coming back up, so you shouldn’t normally experience foul odors coming from your shower drain. If you do, the vent stack that introduces air into your plumbing system may be clogged, or you may have a more severe sewer main blockage. In either case, hire a plumber to fix the issue for you.
