"Mike Trotta (the owner) came and removed my deck personally and was great to work with. He was prompt and reliable and had the deck removed and hauled off to the city dump by noon. His asking price was extremely reasonable and he was very quick and cleaned up all of the deck plus removed the anchoring beams even though they were concreted into the ground. I was extremely pleased and would recommend his company Viking Earthworks to anyone looking for similar services!"

Drain Pipe Installation questions, answered by experts

The size of a pipe isn’t always the outside or inside diameter. Rather, it’s a nominal diameter that depends on the type of pipe. For male pipes, you’ll need to measure the outside diameter. For female pipes, you’ll need to measure the inside diameter. You’ll then need to use a nominal diameter conversion chart to get the actual pipe size you’d buy in the store.

The key difference between a standard spigot and a frost-free hose bib lies in their design and functionality. A standard spigot is a basic outdoor faucet, while a frost-free hose bib is designed to prevent freezing and bursting during winter months. The frost-free hose bib has a longer stem that extends into the heated interior of the house, protecting it from freezing temperatures. This design allows you to leave the water supply on year-round without the risk of pipe damage in cold weather, making it a valuable choice for regions with harsh winters.

To unclog the drain pipe, remove the machine's drain hose from the pipe or sink drain, being careful to contain any water in it. Next, use a plunger for sink drains or a plumbing snake for a wall drain. Test the repair by pouring a small amount of water into the pipe before trying it with a laundry load.

Excessive pressure (above 80 psi) puts too much stress on plumbing pipes, joints, and fixtures. This can lead to leaks and burst pipes. Plus, it shortens the lifespan of appliances, can waste water, and can raise your utility bills. High water pressure might feel like a gift, but it’s actually a silent threat to plumbing.

To avoid a major drainage pipe issue, it’s best to inspect your pipes a few times a year for signs of wear and tear. Some telltale signs that you need to replace your drainage pipes include:

  • Leaks

  • Rust

  • Musty smells

  • Mold or mildew on walls

  • Moisture stains on walls or ceilings

  • Flaking or discolored pipes

  • Frequent clogs or backups
