My kitchen sink and dishwasher are getting little hot water with very little pressure. The faucet is a single handle faucet and the pressure reduces dramatically when pushing the handle to hot. The dishwasher is only about 2-3 months old has worked fine until now. A little water comes thru...

I installed my new kitchen sink however the drain pipe from the wall and p trap extend past my sink tailpiece. I am not an expert at plumbing- do I need to take out the PVC wye that my dishwasher drain is attached to shorten the drain pipe going into my wall?

The Moen Banbury 87017 kitchen pull-out faucet is a fairly easy install. But then they all are. It's removing the old faucets that make it hard sometimes. Anyway, here is what this thing looks like. Moen 87017 Banbury A nifty little snap on for the hose. They supply a label for those...

Hello. I have a chrome pipe coming out of the wall under my kitchen sink that I can't get out. We were able to pull it out about an inch with a strap wrench, but now it's cracked half way around and I'm afraid it's going to break off and we won't have a good way to grip it. Is there a...

I have a leaky kitchen faucet, which I believe is American Standard brand. I'm trying to remove the hot water handle in an attempt to fix the leak. In the videos I've watched, most of the faucets have a cap that you pop off with a screwdriver or a screw that you remove to take the handle off...

Pulled out the old dishwasher to install a new one. This 1 1/2" copper pipe (see photo) is sticking up from the concrete slab floor, blocking the installation of the new dishwasher. It appears to be capped with a soldered brass end cap. There is a keystone image stamped or cast into the cap...

I am replacing a 10 year old kitchen faucet (unknown which brand / model). I can not seem to figure out to disconnect the quick connect fitting. Typically, I've seen where you press up and squeeze the plastic rings together and you pull down, but this is different. It seems to have some sort of...

Hello, I have a 3" sewer main with a number of branch waste lines that enter it. 3" lines are rated for 35 DFU maximum. I have added a few fixtures in my basement and elsewhere and am approaching the maximum DFU rating for my main. Recently, I was doing some careful calculation of every...

Hi, this is my first post, so thanks in advance for any help. I was walking along the outside of the house today, and noticed that there is a hole in the wall leaking water at a pretty constant pace, straight onto one of my bushes. This hole lies directly under the kitchen sink on the interior...

Hi there, I was wondering how I go about stopping the gurgling from this sink. It only happens when I drain this sink and nothing else in the house. From what I've read it is to do with a vent. Lately it has become worse and I have been given the task to fix it by my dearest. I have been told...

Hello, I live on the 2nd floor of an 11 story condo. The building is about 12 years old and the hot/cold pipes under my kitchen sink are copper. Lately, whenever one of my neighbours runs their faucet, I hear a very loud gushing sound under my kitchen sink/ from the pipes; when I touch the...
