    Need to find a 6" OC shower tub valve replacement

    I am not following your suggestion. A remodel plate would just cover up the large holes. But to use an 8" spacing 2 knob valve would require enlarging the existing holes and possibly risk cracking the tiles. I would be very happy to find a valve with a 6" spacing between the knobs. Again...

    Defective American Standard Colony Toilet - no customer satisfaction

    How did Kohler handle the repair? When you came across the Kohler toilet that had a similar factory repair, how did they handle the replacement? In my case as the new homeowner without the receipts from the remodeling work done for resale, American Standard was not willing to do anything...

    Saved by the Floodstop

    I hate Floodstop hoses I will have to agree that the Floodsafe hoses are annoying and I would never use them again. Here is my experience. Upon moving into our new home last year, my bro-in-law gave us his washer and dryer as he was re-married and didn't need a second set. I prefer braided...

    Dishwasher gurgling through sink

    They don't always have to be noisy I understand that with this set-up, there will be noise. It is possible to not have any noise, so the statement that a dishwasher's pump will always cause noise is not true. For example, my dishwasher drain line is run through the floor into it's own trap...

    Dishwasher gurgling through sink

    The difference I see in that photo is that the incoming dishwasher drain hose is brought into the vertical tailpipe off the sink basket. I do not follow how that is going to remove the gurgling noise. Any explanation from anyone?
