What day is the busiest for plumbers?

• <div><p>When it comes to weekday work, the busiest days for plumbers are Monday and Tuesday. Part of the reason is that people discover plumbing problems over the weekend but wait for weekdays to help save money. </p><p>As for the busiest day ever, many plumbers point to “Brown Friday,” their nickname for the day after Thanksgiving. A day of guests, lots of food, and unfamiliar bathrooms can often lead to plumbing disasters, making that Friday a hotspot of emergency plumbing work.

Q: Is bleach good for sewer lines?

• <div><p>Bleach isn&rsquo;t likely to help unclog a sewer line. Bleach isn&rsquo;t useful in this situation because it won&rsquo;t dissolve the grime and debris in the clog. Instead, you want to use ingredients that will have a chemical reaction to clear out the buildup, like vinegar or salt and baking soda. </p></div>

Q: Can you use too much plumber’s tape?

• <div><p>Yes, you can use too much plumber&rsquo;s tape. Adding more tape than necessary will make it difficult to make the pipe connection and has no added benefit. Only wrap the tape around a pipe thread three to six times, depending on the size of the pipe and the thickness of the tape.</p></div>

Q: Can you change a bathroom into a wet room?

• <div><p>It&rsquo;s possible to convert a bathroom into a wet room, but it often requires extensive renovations. You&rsquo;d likely need to remove the floors to install drainage and a new floor over that, remove drywall outside the shower area, and replace it with cement backer board covered in a waterproofing material. You&rsquo;d also need to remove the existing shower, waterproof the walls, and install fixtures to create a more open, <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/curbless-showers-require-more-labor-money.htm">curbless shower</a> space.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to pipe a sink?

• <div><p>The cost to pipe a sink depends on the location. Generally, you&rsquo;ll spend somewhere from $150 to $500 installing plumbing under a kitchen sink and $200 to $800 installing plumbing under a bathroom sink. These costs could rise if you don&rsquo;t have a plumbing hookup nearby and you have to reroute plumbing from outside of your kitchen or bathroom.</p></div>

I've hired One Call twice, both times for broken frozen plumbing. Did a great job getting our water turned back on and repaired and then insulated the pipes so (hopefully) we won't have that problem again.
