For emergencies the propress is a good option I had a plumber buddy get himself into a big jam at a restaurant fighting with a 1 1/2 copper line.. the gate valve would not shut off and the whole place was shut down and they were all going apeshit because he could not solder a ball valve onto the...

I thought about buying one on occasion... but I would rather just solder as the fittings are much cheaper.... the propress is good in an emergency situations in larger sized joints like 1 1/4 and 2 inch pipe in commercial applications where you cannot get the water totally shut off Lots of...

That looks like a 30x30 or a 32x32 shower base and they dont make anything decent any longer in those sizes.... Their are some shitty units that come in a box that normally are installed in basement areas something like a slop shower. I went through the same trouble in my personal home back...

As long as the base is still solid to the floor it should work ok Clean and extra dry the concrete base.... Lay tile strips down.... they come in 12x12 pads. with each tile about an inch square all glued to a back pad..... I would probably use about 6 tubes of clear water proof silicone and...

Their is nothing more fun than overtightening a toilet and hearing that ominous "snap" of the toilet bolt breaking or the plastic flange breaking... Its not wise to go crazy wrenching that toilet down.... snug is good enough and that is why you glue it down to the floor with dap

I dont know,,, either one will work fine.. I am just partial to clear because that is about all I carry around in my truck that alex dap clear or white is very easy to work with and I have found it to be a god-send when dealing with those "peskey" toilets that no matter how much you...

That looks pretty good to me... I suggest that you should take some clear alex dap and put a ring around the base of the toilet at the floor.... force it under the toilet with your finger and clean off the excess with a wet sponge... once the alex dap sets up it will be as solid as a rock

You Do whatever you want to do.... but here are 6 easy steps 1. cut out the whole mess down to the main line.. .but save that vent going out the side of the house 2. then just throw a double wye in the line around where that bottom tee was originally located... 3. now make one side of...

Just install the mess all over again in pvc and do it exactly the same way as the old lines presently are....... why change anything,,, if you want to install the drain in the wall then just elbow or 45 it up into the wall and keep the new pvc trap in about the same location...in the crawl...

Install a new water heater with a drain pan under it.... install a garden hose attachment on the drain outlet so you can attach a garden hose to the pan if it ever were to leak...then run it outside... also buy a Zircon water alarm and put that in the pan with the water heater.. The other...

That is a tough one... maybe you need a new heater

those things are junk and I have never been lucky with them... normally the handle is so worn out that it will not function properly have torn out a number of them

that will work if you cut it to size so it will go down in the pipe the better option is the type that literally glues down into the abs pipe good luck

That faucet puller is for a Moen faucet.... its not gonna work with a Mixit or whatever kind of junk this faucet is

they make a flange with a long snout that would go down into that 3 inch abs pipe its about 6 inches long and you simply glue it into the inside of the pipe.... let it set up and it wont be moving again in our life times and of course it has a metal ring that you can adjust correctly and...

I would need to see the trim for the faucet to be sure, but I think its a shitty Mixit valve

You should get the Rheem power vent.... perhaps you can tie into the pvc line going up the chimmney... good luck

I think most of the stuff you get from Fergusons or other places are higher quality copper fittings like Cerro ... the junk stuff you might find at HD and Lowes... I bought out a ton of plumbing supplies about 7 years ago when Sears Hardware closed in our town... I got first dibs on 2...

I think its all basically turning into dog shit.... their are too many chemicals in city water today that were not factored into the pex designs 20 years ago and now you see this stuff breaking down due to the high chlorine levels... I am seeing our local supply house getting away from Wirsbo...

nope... jsut buy quality fittings from a supply house to be sure... some of the stufff you might see at Ace Hardware could be made in china
