Q: Is it better to snake a drain or use a drain cleaner?

• <div><p>Applying drain cleaner is a common DIY solution to clogged drains, but it can be extremely harmful to your pipes and lead to corrosion and leaks. It is almost always better to try snaking a clog than using a drain cleaner, but the best solution is to hire a professional plumber. They can locate the clog and gauge the severity using a camera system and then decide if using a plumber&rsquo;s snake, auger, or drain cleaner is the best option to remove the clog and limit damage to your plumbing system.</p></div>

Q: What household tool can cut a metal pipe?

• <div><p>Your typical household tools will not cut a metal pipe. To cut a metal pipe, you&rsquo;d need more specialized tools like a pipe cutter or circular saw. Do not attempt to use these tools without taking proper safety precautions and wearing safety gear. It&rsquo;s usually safer to let a pro cut a metal pipe, especially if you&rsquo;re not confident in your skills with a heavy-duty saw. </p></div>

Q: Is it normal for water to spill when I'm changing a toilet fill valve?

• <div><p>First, check that you have cut off the water supply to your toilet. This is a project that can only be done safely if running water cannot reach your toilet fixture. If you're seeing water trickle out after you've confirmed that the water supply is shut off, you can probably rest assured that what you're seeing isn't a problem. It's common for leftover water to spill out when you're removing your toilet's fill valve. If something goes wrong while you're working on your toilet, you'll need to look at your home's policy to see if your<a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/will-homeowners-insurance-cover-water-damage.htm"> homeowner insurance covers water damage</a>.</p></div>

Q: What causes holes in a bathtub?

• <div><p>While tubs are fairly sturdy, you may notice cracks or holes. This kind of damage can happen from someone accidentally dropping something heavy into the tub. You might also see damage if you drop something heavy into the tub over and over again (like your extra large bottle of body wash). While you might only notice a small dent at first, this can later turn into a crack or a hole.</p><p>Also, certain cleaners that are harmful to your tub can cause damage.
