Hey All - I was hoping you could help me with an issue that I’m having and can’t figure out what might be causing it. I have side by side sinks, one with a garbage disposal and the other is a standard drain. When I have stuff in the disposal along with some water (usually to help the...

Hi, I have a bathroom sink that is leaking. The issue is the compression fitting (see picture attached). I tighten it as much as I dare, but over time, the compression fitting slips (due to the weight of the p-trap ) and then it start leaking. I have addressed this temporarily by supporting the...

I just replaced an air admittance valve under the sink The old one had the protective cover over it. Is this needed? From what I gather its good for when its outside, but will having it on help or hinder when used inside? Thanks!

Hi: I have a bathroom sink that's fully of dirty water that hasn't gone down for days and I've tried heavy-duty liquid to get it unclogged such as Liquid Fire and Liquid-Plumbr (Industrial Strenth Urgent Clear) with no results except to have the air full of toxic fumes. I live in a mobile home...

OK - moving my sink to an island. The closest drain pipe is the downstairs bathroom closet flange (to the right) and main stack (to the left). The new sink is pretty much 12FT to the right of the closet flange. I might be redoing the bathroom floor (based on the staining around the flange)...

I am in the process of adding a master bathroom and I have to rough in a toilet and sink off of a 3 inch main stack. The problem is the second floor bathroom was built with a ledger board connected to the house and I cannot drill or notch it. I am thinking of using a 3” San tee followed by 2 45...

Our washing machine has a hose that comes out the bottom back, goes over to the sink, drapes into the sink, and is then long enough that the filter on the end (like a mesh sock) is laying down in the sink and getting moldy. We're thinking of cutting it short so that the filter dangles like it...

Ever since we had granite installed with a new double sink, there have been frequent explosive overflows from the garbage disposer, into the other sink. I recently replaced the old garbage disposer as it was leaking and the new one behaves the same way. I had snaked the drain and run a couple...

I have a dual kitchen sink with recently installed drain plumbing that is not draining slowly (pictures below). Prior to the new plumbing the AAV was about 10” above the top of the lateral line into the wall (where it goes to a 90° and into the slab). The disposal had no trap, it was a straight...

We are adding a restroom and an old warehouse in Seattle. Because part of the drain line has to go over a concrete footing it starts at its lowest point about 10 inches above floor level. There are two sinks and for each we are using a combo 2-in tee on its side, it is not possible to change...

When I hook my portable dishwasher up to my faucet, the piece on top of the tap (faucet cap) leaks. I also think the bottom of the faucet body leaks. It's not just a minor drip either, it sprays out. I started up my dishwasher the other day and left it and when I came back to my kitchen, my...

I live in Massachusetts and recently installed a half bath on my first floor. The main vent is on the other side of the home. I ran a wet vent from the toilet and exited the vent through an exterior wall. It is currently stubbed out, planning to run 2" PVC up outside of the house, above the roof...

Good Afternoon everyone! I bought my house in almost exactly 3 years ago today. When I got it inspected, the inspector told me the kitchen sink wasn't plumbed correctly, but it worked so I didnt pay any attention to it. Three years later I want it to work RIGHT. Whenever I use the garage...

My upstairs bathroom has short wall between a tub and a sink, with a door just beyond the edge of the tub. Over the last few months, the floor just outside the door has become increasingly discolored, but I haven't been able to determine the source of the presumed water leak. I have looked...
