"Jesse was really wonderful - knowledgeable, understanding, and he had all of the necessary tools to get the job done. Our job required some snaking of pipes, and he also had a camera to put through the pipes to make sure that everything was clear. We appreciated Drain & Main's responsiveness to our request (same day), their friendliness, and their expeditious 'get it done' attitudes. We highly recommend Drain & Main Plumbing Co."

"Love HomeAdvisor! Boss Plumbing was great! Very professional but not stand-offish. They went above and beyond installing my hot water tank. The home advisor app would not let me make a payment. They drove my husband to the bank, he could only take out so much and it was my account. They drove BACK to my house to pick me up and went BACK to the bank! You do not find many people like that. Avi and Bachan are our new handymen! Ava F. Schenectady, NY"

"Paul Norton who installed my Tub surround was extremely professional. He ran into plumbing problems, which he handled swiftly and efficiently. He checked everything before he left, water, and cleaned up and even swept the floor. Very impressed with Bath Fitters."

Plumbing Handymen FAQs, answered by experts

Schrader valves are also commonly known as American valves or simply car valves since they're often used in tires for bicycles and motor vehicles. The valve gets its name from the company that created it, the Schrader company, following its invention in 1891. It was later patented in the U.S. in 1893.

Most homeowners pay between $150 to $500 to replace their frost-free faucet. It depends on the type and the brand. For a lower-end model, you won’t pay much more than the cost to replace a standard outdoor faucet. For a higher-end model, you could end up paying twice as much. Either way, installing a new frost-free faucet can lead to long-term savings by preventing damage to frozen pipes.

Your toilet handle might not come back up if the nut is loose or the bolt threads are stripped. Try to tighten the mounting nut and wrap plumber’s tape around the handle bolt to fix stripped threads. It’s possible the handle was improperly installed. If that’s the case, you can use the instructions above to correct the handle’s position. 

The overflow drain and wastewater drain connect to the same main pipe to take water away from your bathtub. Your overflow drain is meant to prevent damage to your bathroom—especially the floor around your bathtub, where excess water can quickly create a mold or mildew problem.

The signs of a bad mixing valve in a shower include water that’s scalding hot or freezing cold, a leak in your shower, a lack of hot water, and low water pressure. If you suspect there’s a problem with the mixing valve, call a pro to inspect your shower and replace the valve if necessary.
