Thanks, I called today and they are sending a replacement hose for free. I watched a YouTube and think I can handle replacing the hose. I was expecting them to make a big deal about the receipt which I have, but can't find.

I have a 10+ Hansgrohe Talis high arch kitchen faucet. The hose is leaking. Do I need to order a Hansgrohe hose $60 or can I use a generic? Do big box stores HD or Lowes sell the generics? I suspect I need slide rings, the old one looks worn, but maybe will clean up w vinegar once leaking...

Yes he used the unifit, I special ordered the 14 inch. It's a warranty issue w the plumber or I would hire another plumber. I will stay in the room & take photos of his work next time. Thanks for your responses!

I just finished a remodel of guestbath. Slab foundation, 1 story house, new floortile. I had a master plumber install a TOTO Legato, w 14 inch adapter. I rarely use this bathroom, but happened to notice toilet flushed w a funny sound, so watched & flushed again. Water pooled out the base of...

I could not see very far down, but no standing water. Here a picture of the entire set up. This is an interior wall. I've lived here 35 years. Could the ptrap be under the slab, like the shower drain? Thanks for the help.

Sorry, I don't know. It's a slab foundation, does that help?

I'm still working on the remodel.... My washer needed new valves so I had those installed last week. The plumber cut the sheet rock all the way down to the floor. This weekend I washing clothes and noticed water trickling out where the pvc standpipe attaches to the castiron. Is this a seal...

I wrote to Picote abut the minimiller, this is their reply (please let me know your thoughts). "Our drain cleaning system uses high speed grinding to clean away blockages and any rust and tuberculation build up over the years. Rodding is much to slow and doesn’t effectively clean and open up...

I noted the brand you like Bio-Clean, the ad says it's for septic tanks. How would I use it for a regular house with a city sewer line? Do I pour it in all my drains & flush it down the toilets? Or just pour it into the cleanout? Is Rid-x for septic systems the same thing? Thanks

I talked to some other drain specialist to get bids. One said hydrojet was better, that picote mini miller is only used when the next step is to install an epoxy liner. He claimed the miller range knocks holes in cast iron. Another plumber said rodding is safest and he cameras before and...

I don't know. I was just told this was much better and more thorough. It must be new tech, nobody has heard of it, but there are videos & ads, I was hoping for more discussion among pro's.

Great, good to know

Yes, I have had the camera procedure, it's not broken just lots of scale. Thanks

I'm trying to finish a remodel of 2 baths of a single story slab foundation house in the DFW area (Texas). The guest bath has drain problems. Tile contractors plumber recommends, Picote Mini-Miller range drain cleaning. It costs $1,700 for a 40 foot branch. I have not been able to find...

Thank you, yes I wondered about the issue w scheduling . He also wants to descale my cast-iron drains, but the price is 1,700.00; much higher than other companies.

I'm having my bath remodeled and unfortunately had to fire the 1st contractor. So it's complicated... My new contractor uses a different plumber , who bills separately. His charge to install a Kohler Bellwether castiron tub (I bought the tub) in an alcove (ground floor-single story, slab...

Thank you for responding. This contractor has been a pain, he still claims to be waiting on supplies to do the flood test. I was unaware a permit was needed, until after the shower was constructed. Neither contractor pulled a permit. I fired the 1st contractor, and I thought this guy was...

I hired a CTI to remodel my bathrooms. He installed a schluter shower system, but did not flood test. He has installed the floor & part of the walls. I posted pics on fb, and peopled asked about the low curb & flood test. So I asked him about it, he says he never flood tests, but he would do...

I hired a contractor to remodel my shower. He used pt lumber to build a curb, did not add blocks between studs, installed liner, then put up cement board and nailed it to the curb & around edges. When I asked about preslope for the drain, he said that comes next, he will pour preslope on top...

Is this a Dahl Skirted Toilet Installation Kit? Or another specialty part? Can you tell what size I need? My tile guy hired his brother to work on my plumbing. I will hire a different plumber to finish. The brother doesn't seem to know much about Toto. Although he has a fleet of custom...
