Q: What size pipe do I need to plumb a bathroom?

• <div><p>You&rsquo;ll need two sizes of pipe to plumb a bathroom. You&rsquo;ll use a 1/2-inch pressure pipe for your supply lines that run from the fixture to the larger 3/4-inch supply lines that run through the house. For drain lines, you&rsquo;ll need a 3-inch PVC pipe for your toilet, a 2-inch PVC pipe for stand-alone showers, and a 1 1/2-inch pipe for a shower/tub combo and the bathroom sink. Each fixture&rsquo;s drain will run to the 3-inch main drain that runs through the house.</p></div>

Q: Is there a main shut-off valve for sprinkler system?

• <div><p>The main shut-off valve for a sprinkler system is simply called the shut-off valve. It&rsquo;s one of several valves for a sprinkler system, and it controls the water supply to the sprinkler system&rsquo;s water lines. This valve is different from the master valve, which can also shut off the water supply in case of an emergency but operates automatically.</p></div>

Q: How can I avoid a clogged toilet?

• <div><p>Flushing the toilet only to realize it&rsquo;s clogged can cause anxiety. To avoid a clogged toilet, use less toilet paper. If you notice that the toilet is flushing and refilling slower than usual, you can use a plunger to clear clogs in the S-trap. If that doesn&rsquo;t work, call a plumber to check your system and possibly clear the drain lines.</p></div>

Q: Can I turn the water back on at the main shut-off valve myself?

• <div><p>Yes, you can turn your water back on after you <a href="https://www.angi.com/articles/how-find-emergency-plumbing-service.htm">hire an emergency plumber</a> and this professional completes the repairs. Your plumber probably will turn on the water for you, just to test the repairs and look for any other problems. Otherwise, if the plumber doesn&rsquo;t turn it back on, it&rsquo;s safe to do it yourself. Open the valve or knob slowly to prevent an unwanted rush of air from getting into your pipes.</p></div>

Q: How much does it cost to unclog a drain or sewer line?

• <div><p>The cost to unclog a drain varies based on the location and severity of the clog. For simple clogs within your home, such as in a sink, toilet, or shower, hiring a plumber typically costs between $110 and $350, with an average of around $200. Snaking a toilet or sink usually costs between $110 and $275, while a bathtub or shower clog costs about $225.</p><p>For a more serious clog in the main sewer line, the cost is higher. Clearing a main line clog generally costs between $200 and $600, with an average of about $380. However, prices can range from as low as $100 for snaking a minor clog to over $1,600, particularly if advanced methods like video inspection and hydrojetting are needed for a large or hard-to-reach blockage. Some severe main line clogs can cost upwards of $1,000 to clear depending on factors like the cause of the clog, its distance from an accessible cleanout, and whether the pipe is located beneath an occupied space (e.g., in an apartment building). You may be able to save money on minor clogs by using a drain snake or bladder yourself.</p></div>

"I had a plumbing problem that needed immediate attention. After calling local plumbers to no avail, I went to Angie's list and called the first plumber on the list. He called back immediately and said he'd be there within the hour. He showed up when he said he would, politely introduced himself and his assistant, and went right to work. Not only did they resolve the blockage, they discovered the break in the pipe that caused the problem. These two guys worked like a well-oiled machine. They were focused, efficient, and professional; they explained everything they were doing; and they treated my 94-year-old mother like a queen! I'd hire these guys back in a minute! They are superb professionals!"
