    stop-gap for clogging sewer line

    Well, yes, he just snaked it out to city line with huge cable and 4" cutter. I'm just wanting to keep line open 'til he gets back.

    stop-gap for clogging sewer line

    I am turning to this estimable forum because I have always found the people here really know what they're talking about and have been of help over and over again. Fifteen years ago we replaced the main sewer waste line from our house to the city line and then about 5 years ago, after repeated...

    what did low-flow mean in 1987?

    thanks to all Apparently they slapped this fee on the water bill that you can only get removed if you are inspected and they see you only have 1.6 (or 1.28 toilets). But it's only $4/month so it will take a lot of flushes to make up the difference in water savings. It's good to know though...

    how to specify faucet to plumber

    how to specify faucet to plumber

    Our bathroom faucets (on two side-by-side sinks) are failing (impossible to turn off entirely) and we have been told by three different plumbers over the years that they cannot be repaired. Apparently they are some whacko Italian brand that was installed 20+ years ago. So this means new...
