    Grey sealant/glue used on Washer drain hose?

    Front end threaded spout?

    I'm looking to replace my tub spout, which is threaded. The strange thing is that when I unscrewed it, the PVC line to the wall came out as well. I'm guessing the end going into the spout was just tighter than the male end that goes into the wall/water pipe. But that could be wrong, and I'd...

    Questions about finding/diagnosing a leak

    My mom's new (to her) home is located on a plot of land where everyone has an easement for all the usual things.
