"Tarheel Basement Systems is the reason my 125 year old house is standing. When I bought the house a few years ago, they did an excellent job making my house structurally sound with metal beams and jacks. They showed up on time and worked diligently in a tiny space. They did a great job back then and every year they come back and check over all the work, tightening things up, and checking for any issues. Our yearly inspection was last week and I am so grateful that they wiggle through the crawlspace each year. This year, Eric found an electrical wire that was sparking against the wooden subfloor of my house! A mouse had chewed away some of the wire insulation. He notified me and I was able to get the issue fixed quickly. The location of the wire was hidden in a small corner behind some plumbing, the electrician was amazed it was noticed, and I am very thankful that I found out before we had a house fire. Over the years I have been extremely impressed by their consistently excellent work. Extraordinary people doing amazing work!"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

While some building codes allow galvanized pipe for natural gas, it shouldn’t be used for propane. Propane can cause the pipe to wear down, leading to dangerous leaks. Instead of galvanized piping for propane, you should consider coated copper, black iron, or corrugated stainless steel tubing (CSST). For underground propane line installation, you can use polyethylene (PE).

Sometimes when a pipe bursts in a house, it makes a clang or popping noise; however, that doesn’t mean you’ll hear it. Newer pipes tend to be quieter than older pipes. Plus, a pipe can easily burst out of earshot, especially if it’s a floor or two away from you. 

If you do hear an unusual popping noise, consider hiring a plumber to inspect your pipes. Most of the time, you’re more likely to notice a burst pipe either from a visible leak or because water won’t run out of your tap properly.

Yes, you can use too much plumber’s tape. Adding more tape than necessary will make it difficult to make the pipe connection and has no added benefit. Only wrap the tape around a pipe thread three to six times, depending on the size of the pipe and the thickness of the tape.

Usually it’s fine to leave a toilet clogged overnight, as long as it’s not close to overflowing. In some cases, the extra time may give the clog time to work itself out. For example, if it’s caused by an excess of toilet paper, letting it sit could result in the clog dissolving and you may be able to simply flush it away by the time you wake up. 

Only let it sit though if you have more than one toilet in the home.

A faulty fill valve is the likely source of noise in your pipes after flushing a toilet. The valve is what’s responsible for bringing in the additional water needed when you flush a toilet. If this valve malfunctions, then it causes a sudden change in water pressure, which results in noises in the pipes.
