    Shower/Tub Combo - Intermitent Drip

    Thank you for replying! The strange thing is I haven't used the shower sprayer/head in weeks. It only drips out like a few drops then stops. Kind of like a release of water. Then it won't do it again for another 1/2 day or so. Could it be water is getting backed up into the shower hose...

    Shower/Tub Combo - Intermitent Drip

    Hello - I have a Shower/Tub combo and recently my tub spout has been dripping a little water. Not a consistent drip. Just a little water appears in my tub every day. I have replaced both the cartridge assembly and tub spout but a little water still appears. Does anyone have any idea as to...

    Trying to locate a sink part

    Hello - I am hoping someone can help me locate a plumbing item. I would like to get rid of the stoppers in the bathroom sinks in my home and replace them with a grid flange (if that’s the correct name to use). They are kind of like you see over drains in showers or tubs or commercial sinks...

    Loud Pipes When Water Shuts Off
