Q: What is a water hammer?

• <div><p>A water hammer refers to the banging or knocking sound you hear in your water pipes after you turn off your faucet or when your washing machine or dishwater fills. This happens when highly pressurized water suddenly stops moving in your pipes due to a valve closing or your well pump shutting down quickly. Try adjusting the pressure setting on your water pressure tank&mdash;it should be below 50 psi (pounds per square inch). Or have a plumber install a water hammer arrestor.</p></div>

Q: What should I consider when converting a tub into a shower?

• <div><p>The first thing to consider when converting a tub into a shower is whether you&rsquo;d like to simply change out the tub or undertake a complete bathroom remodel. If you&rsquo;re unsure, reviewing <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/shower-design-ideas-bathroom-remodel.htm">bathroom remodeling ideas</a> can help you decide whether you&rsquo;re satisfied with your space or could use a change. From there, decide if you&rsquo;ll handle the job yourself or hire a pro, and then set a budget.</p></div>

Q: What size pipe do I need to plumb a shower?

• <div><p>The size of the pipe you use for your shower depends on the part of the shower you&rsquo;re installing. Shower drainpipes have a 2-inch diameter, and the water supply lines (both hot and cold) have a &frac12;-inch diameter. You may want to slightly increase the size of the vertical pipe if you have dual showerheads. Check the local building code prior to installation for guidance.</p></div>

Q: Can you replace a sink without replacing the vanity?

• <div><p>Yes, you can usually replace a sink without replacing the vanity. It really depends on the type of vanity and the type of sink. You&rsquo;ll need to make sure you purchase a sink that will fit in the existing space. This requires precise measurements. You&rsquo;ll also have to carefully remove your old sink, making sure you don&rsquo;t damage the countertop during the replacement.</p></div>

Q: What sealant can I use for a leaking pipe?

• <div><p>The type of sealant you use on a leaking pipe will depend on the pipe material and the cause of the leak. PVC P-traps should avoid petroleum-based sealants, which can degrade the plastic and worsen the leak. Pipe sealant is specifically designed for use on pipes, but remember&mdash;if your P-trap has a crack&ndash;it&rsquo;s best to replace the pipe to avoid future leaks.</p></div>

I like that they can come on my schedule and we haven't seen them in a long time and they haven't called us back so I am little disappointed other than that, but they are the only ones in our area so that is kind of limited.

"Very professional. Jeromy wore a mask. He was polite and cleaned up the area after the install. I have a Choice Home Warranty and called them for the plumbing repairs. All i had to pay was a contractor service fee. In the future if i need a plumber i will ask for the Company OSP Plumbing in the Henderson/ Las Vegas Nevada area and ask for Jeromy."

"They couldn't deliver, they specified items that after months of waiting, they could never deliver. In the mean time, they directed me to have plumbing rough and done, and then when they couldn't deliver the system for which the plumbing was done, I now have to spend several thousand dollars having the plumbing redone for another system that I found out on my own. The design was okay, some of their ideas were spot on, some of them were way off but ultimately they just couldn't deliver after holding $10,000 of my money for over 2 months. I am currently in a dispute with them with American Express because they still haven't credited me back the money I paid them to purchase things that they never delivered."
