Thanks for the response. I guess I will go buy a hand snake and see if that resolves the situation.

Last week I had a situation where the tub in one bathroom and the shower in the other had been draining slower than normal. Then neither toilet would flush and water was actually coming out from under the base of both toilets when I tried to flush . I called the plumber and he discovered an...

I am offended by this comment. I read the answer and immediately did as suggested. I was told about a special sprinkler head you can buy that you insert a valve into that restricts the water pattern. It was called an end cap. So to say that I am a jerk for not posting again is offensive. I...

I have an older style toilet. It has the overflow tube in the middle of the tank and the ballcock assembly to the left as you look at it. It was constantly running and in order to stop it temporarily I had to physically lift the rod that holds the bulb. I figured there was a problem with...

OK. Thanks. I will not try and do anything myself. I popped off the cats and the bolts seemed tight.

Please excuse my ignorance on these matters. While I can try a murder case I know next to nothing about plumbing hence my question. This is so basic that I am sure most of you will laugh but I need to ask it. I noticed yesterday that my toilet actually tilted slightly. My other one is a...
