"We were able to secure so much work for such a good price it's hard to list it all, but I will try. New water heater Kitchen bib repair New sink support build Extended hose off the main to restore water pressure Pipe rework under kitchen sink New garbage disposal Condenser line repair Discovery of crawl space to sort out galvanized line and extra condenser line that was a mystery, even to the inspection team I hired. So impressed BMF found it. Cleared out rodent traps from previous owner who didn't pass on any information about the home. Gas Dryer hookup Toilet replacements Toilet tank rework I know I am missing something but BMF is a seriously solid company and I will have another gambit of work for them next year. They really worked their tails off for us and I can't thank them enough. This old home has a ways to go, as it's all being pieced together to find out what's going on, but I feel like BMF will do her some much deserved justice. Thanks again. Angie"

Toilets questions, answered by experts

Common problems include leaks, clogs, and low water pressure. Regular maintenance prevents major disruptions.

Yes, a toilet, sink, and shower can share the same vent. This is a common plumbing practice that can simplify installation and save space. When sharing a vent, it's important that the toilet is located downstream from all other fixtures. You will also need to ensure the vent pipe is large enough to handle the demands of all connected fixtures without compromising its effectiveness. Because requirements can vary, you should always check your local building and plumbing codes. Consulting a qualified plumber is recommended to ensure the vent is properly sized, installed, and adheres to all local regulations.

Left unattended, a leaking toilet will eventually cause water damage or mold growth. If you’re a homeowner, you can file an insurance claim for water damage. However, that can be a long and tedious process; sometimes, your insurance company may not cover the damage. Therefore, it’s always best to fix any leak you notice right away if you can.

The toilet should rest 10, 12, or 14 inches from the back wall. As for other clearances, 15 inches is the minimum distance from the flange to any side wall or nearby fixture, including the shower, tub, and sink. Modern codes also require at least 24 inches of clear space in front of the toilet.

You can DIY your toilet flapper replacement if you’re up for a small plumbing project. Turn off the water to the toilet, open the tank lid, remove the chain from the lever, and unhook the flapper. For a new, adjustable flapper, adjust it to the right setting according to your toilet's gallons per flush rating. Hook the flapper in place and install the chain with 1/2 inch of slack.
