Q: How do you clean a sink stopper without removing it?

• <div><p>If you don&rsquo;t want to remove the sink stopper, pour &frac12; cup of baking soda and 2 cups of boiling water down the drain. Start by pouring 1 cup of boiling water, then the baking soda, followed by the remaining cup of boiling water. Use caution as boiling water can damage PVC or other plastic piping. Using a scrub brush or slightly abrasive sponge, clean the top of the stopper, and run the faucet to ensure the drain is clear and the stopper is clean. </p></div>

Q: Does the subfloor go under the toilet flange?

• <div><p>The toilet flange anchors to the subfloor, usually with wood screws or cement screws, but most of it should sit above floor level at full height. When a flange is flush with the subfloor or below it, it can lead to the creation of leak paths.</p></div>

Q: What controls water pressure in a shower?

• <div><p>A couple of components work together to control your shower's water pressure. A water pressure regulator, located near your main water shut-off valve, will control the pressure as water enters your home. From there, your shower valve does the heavy lifting. Other factors that impact water pressure include the type of showerhead you install (rain showerheads tend to have lower water pressure than traditional wall-mounted showerheads) and whether the local building code requires a flow restrictor. </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>

Q: Can you hear a pipe burst?

• <div><p>Sometimes when a pipe bursts in a house, it makes a clang or popping noise; however, that doesn&rsquo;t mean you&rsquo;ll hear it. Newer pipes tend to be quieter than older pipes. Plus, a pipe can easily burst out of earshot, especially if it&rsquo;s a floor or two away from you. </p><p>If you do hear an unusual popping noise, consider hiring a plumber to inspect your pipes. Most of the time, you&rsquo;re more likely to notice a burst pipe either from a visible leak or because water won&rsquo;t run out of your tap properly.</p></div>

"The project went very well considering the scope. Selecting the granite slab was enjoyable. Sal addressed a drywall issue when removing one of the bathroom counter tops.
Dos: Get an upfront estimate of all work before committing. This includes extra granite, backsplash, etc.
I recommend having a plumber unhook all plumbing and a carpenter repair and level the cabinets prior to installation.
The better the preparation, the better the job.

If you don’t want to remove the sink stopper, pour ½ cup of baking soda and 2 cups of boiling water down the drain.
