How do I check my spigot or faucet for leaks?

• <div><p>Turn on the water to each faucet and check the area for water trickling out from anyplace but the spout. Next, shut off the water and see if there’s any residue which could indicate a worn down rubber seal. If you find any water, you can replace the rubber seal or have a plumber do it for you.</p></div>

Q: Why is water coming out of the shower when the tub is on?

• <div><p>The diverter valve in your bathtub is responsible for diverting water between your tub spout and your shower head. If water comes out of both at the same time, you have a faulty diverter valve. You can have a plumber replace this for you, or you can replace it yourself if you have some experience working with plumbing fixtures.</p></div>

Q: Does homeowners insurance cover sewer backup?

• <div><p>Homeowners insurance usually doesn&rsquo;t cover sewer backups because it&rsquo;s typically an avoidable problem with proper maintenance. The only exception would be if the backup is occurring because of local flooding and only if your city uses a combined drainage system for stormwater and sewage. If that&rsquo;s the case, your policy should cover any resulting damage.</p></div>

Q: Which side is the cold water valve located on?

• <div><p>Plumbing standards dictate that the cold water line is located on the right side of the sink. The hot water line should be located on the left side. If your piping was installed incorrectly, a plumber may be able to correct the issue for you to avoid future confusion when having plumbing work done. </p></div>

Q: How deep are water lines typically buried?

• <div><p>In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.</p></div>

Good job with the installation. The price estimate at first was very high. I had to negotiate for a more reasonable price.

Not able to do the complete drain job. Power failure in area was not their fault but they said only the service fee would be forgiven. Bill was over $400 since paying for 2 plumbers. They needed to protect the carpet and we allowed them to use protective cover. They should have been prepared...

The technician was pleasant, found the problem immediately and another problem that was brewing. He fixed the first one, which was simply the need for a new filter and was going to leave it at that. Then said one pip really was set up wrong and setting it up right would allow us to see issues in...

Excellent service! Very fast response. Arrived at the appointed time and called before to let me know he was on his way. Gave me a price, and then installed the outside faucet right then. I couldn't be happier! :-)
