Q: What are the benefits of repairing or replacing faucets, fixtures, and pipes?

• <div><p>Fixing plumbing prevents water damage, conserves water potentially lost by leaks, and improves home convenience and efficiency.</p></div>

Q: Is pipe size inside or outside diameter?

• <div><p>The size of a pipe isn&rsquo;t always the outside or inside diameter. Rather, it&rsquo;s a nominal diameter that depends on the type of pipe. For male pipes, you&rsquo;ll need to measure the outside diameter. For female pipes, you&rsquo;ll need to measure the inside diameter. You&rsquo;ll then need to use a nominal diameter conversion chart to get the actual pipe size you&rsquo;d buy in the store.</p></div>

Q: How can you tell if a shower valve is bad or needs to be replaced?

• <div><p>Signs that your shower valve has gone bad include a variety of issues with water flow and temperature. Common symptoms are low water pressure, inconsistent water temperature, and dripping or leaking from the handle or showerhead when the water is off. You might also notice that the knob is difficult to turn or won't turn at all. Another key indicator of a bad diverter valve is water coming from both the tub spout and the showerhead simultaneously, or being unable to switch the water flow between the two fixtures. In advanced cases, the water may not turn on at all. These are all signs that the valve may need to be replaced.</p></div>

Q: Can I snake my own drain?

• <div><p>If methods like hot water or a plunger don&rsquo;t work on your clogged drain, you can snake your drain to dislodge the plug. This can be a messy process, taking some physical effort and additional time over the other drain-clearing options. You can purchase a drain snake at a hardware store and choose from handheld options or those attached to a drill. Just work slowly, and be ready to call a plumber if you&rsquo;re unable to reach the clog from your drain or P-trap.</p></div>

Q: What is a bathtub diverter valve?

• <div><p>A bathtub diverter is used when you have a shower-tub combination. The diverter valve allows you to send the water to either your tub faucet or your showerhead. Diverter shower valves cost between <b>$20 and $200</b>. Higher-end brands, such as Moen, might cost more&mdash;some models are over <b>$250</b>.</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!"
