Q: Are all gray pipes polybutylene?

• <div><p>While polybutylene pipes are usually light gray, if you see gray pipes in your home that doesn&rsquo;t necessarily mean they&rsquo;re polybutylene. PVC pipes can also come in gray. Check for a &ldquo;PB2110&rdquo; stamp, slight flexibility, or a &frac12;-inch to 1-inch diameter, which are also signs of polybutylene. </p></div>

Q: How can you tell if a shower valve is bad or needs to be replaced?

• <div><p>Signs that your shower valve has gone bad include a variety of issues with water flow and temperature. Common symptoms are low water pressure, inconsistent water temperature, and dripping or leaking from the handle or showerhead when the water is off. You might also notice that the knob is difficult to turn or won't turn at all. Another key indicator of a bad diverter valve is water coming from both the tub spout and the showerhead simultaneously, or being unable to switch the water flow between the two fixtures. In advanced cases, the water may not turn on at all. These are all signs that the valve may need to be replaced.</p></div>

Q: What is used to fix a burst pipe?

• <div><p>There are several methods to temporarily or permanently fix a burst pipe. In a pinch, you can seal up a small leak with either silicon pipe tape or epoxy specifically designed for this purpose. You can also purchase a pipe repair kit that supplies a clamp and gasket to seal the pipe. In the long term, a plumber will either remove the damaged area of the pipe and add a replacement coupling or replace the entire length of the pipe between joints.</p></div>

Q: How do you position a pot filler?

• <div><p>When positioning a pot filler, it should be mounted at a height that allows for convenient access without obstructing the cooking area. A general guideline is to place it 18 to 24 inches above the stove. For a more customized height, measure your most-used pots and install the filler 5 to 10 inches above your tallest one. Regarding horizontal placement, while centering the pot filler can be aesthetically pleasing and ensure it reaches all burners, it is often safer to install it to the left or right of the cooking surface. This placement helps you avoid reaching over a hot stove and reduces the risk of the filler itself getting hot from a large boiling pot. If you do choose to center it, be careful to avoid burns.</p></div>

Q: Can you fix a leaking copper pipe without replacing it?

• <div><p>If your copper pipe springs a leak, you don&rsquo;t have to replace the entire pipe. You can replace just the damaged section, either by adding a new portion of pipe or using a slip repair coupling. Nonetheless, you may want to replace your pipes if they&rsquo;re more than 20 years old or suffering from severe corrosion. A <a href="http://www.angi.com/articles/how-much-does-installing-or-replacing-plumbing-pipes-cost.htm">pipe replacement costs</a> somewhere between <b>$400 to $2,200</b>. </p></div>

"Very happy with the response and service supplied by City Wide Plumbing. Replaced the water main to the house the same day they came out for service. Showed up on time, diagnosed the problem and fixed it in one day. Had to dig up the yard to replace the main and when they were finished you could hardy tell it had been dug up. Marcos was very professional and knowledgeable. Would highly recommend them in the future and will use them again."
