Q: What is the cost of rough-in basement bathroom plumbing?

• <div><p>The cost of rough-in basement bathroom plumbing can be less expensive than the cost of rough-in plumbing in the rest of the house. Materials, labor, and fixtures make up the bulk of the price, but plumbing and electrical are often nearby to where your basement bathroom fixtures will be.</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: Will running water unfreeze pipes?

• <div><p>Running water can help melt ice inside the pipe, but only up to a certain point. If your pipe is frozen solid, adding water will not likely resolve the issue. Water will begin to flow through the affected pipe once the area is heated by a plumber, signaling the issue is getting resolved.</p></div>

Q: How long does trenchless pipe lining take to install?

• <div><p>Most experienced professionals can get an entire trenchless pipe lining project done in a single day, and smaller projects might take as little as three to four hours. If your technician uses machinery to dig the two access points, the job will likely be faster, whereas manual digging will take a bit longer and could push the project above six hours.</p></div>

Q: What happens if you drop something small down the sink?

• <div><p>Anything you drop down your sink runs the risk of damaging and clogging your pipes. Hair, bits of food, and other debris can catch on the item and build up over time, causing a clog. Even if it&rsquo;s not valuable, it&rsquo;s definitely worth trying to retrieve the item, or at the very least, asking a pro for specific advice. </p></div>

Small business fully insured and licensed with 18+ years in the trade. I accept projects big and small and have from 1-3 workers (including myself) to get the job done right. With a select list of contacts (electricians/plumbers/hvac), most jobs can be completed with one phone call. We will start with a signed estimate and discuss payment at that point. Most projects I will invoice upon successful and satisfactory completion.

"It was excellent. All work was done properly. There were no long pause. He came when he said he was going to. There was a wood work that he did that we don't like and he redid it. His estimates were lower than the actual final cost. The reason why the estimate were low, some parts of the job changed after they were made."
