Q: What is the cost of rough-in basement bathroom plumbing?

• <div><p>The cost of rough-in basement bathroom plumbing can be less expensive than the cost of rough-in plumbing in the rest of the house.

Q: Why can’t I unscrew my toilet seat?

• <div><p>If you&rsquo;ve accessed the bolts and nuts that hold your toilet seat in place and can&rsquo;t unscrew them, it&rsquo;s possible that they were overtightened or that the material corroded over time, making it impossible to unscrew. If that&rsquo;s the case, you can either call in a plumber for help, or you can DIY a solution if you&rsquo;re careful. Lay down masking tape around the mounting bracket and then use the tape as a surface to lay a hack saw blade. Move slowly to cut through the bracket and bolt, being careful not to damage the porcelain in the process.</p></div>

Q: What is plumbing repiping?

• <div><p>Repiping your plumbing is when you remove the old plumbing system and replace it with newer, more modern plumbing and drainage pipes. Typically, older homes are repiped to upgrade the plumbing system. If you have frequent issues with your home&rsquo;s plumbing system or live in an older home with outdated pipes, consult a professional plumber about the best course of action for repiping your plumbing.</p></div>

Q: Can pressure-assisted toilets leak?

• <div><p>Yes, pressure-assist toilets leak, but less often than regular toilets. You might experience leaks from your toilet due to worn-out parts, water pressure in your plumbing that&rsquo;s too high or low, poor installation, or cracks in your tank. These toilets are harder to fix on your own than gravity-fed ones, so it&rsquo;s best to call a plumber if you can&rsquo;t figure out what&rsquo;s wrong, </p></div>

"The service went very well. I called and asked if a plumber could come and change our expansion tank off of our hot water heater and was told that the plumber would be there between 1 and 3. About 15 minutes before 1, the plumber called and asked if he could come by.
The service at the house went well and he used buckets and towels to make sure he didn't spill water everywhere. The water that did drip on our garage floor was cleaned up before he left.
They accept credit cards and are very professional, I'd use them again!

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

No, a larger well pressure tank will not increase your home's water pressure by itself. Water pressure is determined by the pressure control switch on the well pump.

However, a larger tank does offer other benefits. It can store more water, which allows you to run water for longer periods before the pump needs to turn on. This reduces how often the pump cycles on and off, leading to less wear and tear on the pump and the entire well system. Consequently, a larger tank can help extend the life of your equipment and may prevent future pump issues that could affect water pressure.

If your goal is to increase water pressure, consider these alternatives:

Adjust the pressure settings on your tank to a higher PSI (pounds per square inch).
Replace your current pump with a model that has a higher flow rate, measured in gallons per minute (GPM).
Have a professional install a water pressure booster pump in your plumbing system.
If you experience pressure fluctuations, consider upgrading to a constant pressure system.
