We are a full service plumbing company. There are times when we have to gain access to the roof of million dollar homes. 

I have seen and experienced draining a water heater for replacement, and the drain is clogged and won’t let out any water.

When installing a shower arm or hand held hose wall elbow, thread a ½" coupling onto the male ends and select the appropriate size pipe nipple to use as a lever.

Carry lengths of pipe in a standard cargo van and eliminate roof racks.

Every time I installed an ice maker supply line, I was always concerned that it may leak — pushing and pulling on the fridge. 

The customer says there is water at the base of the toilet after flushing, which means you get to replace the wax seal. 

We do gas and electric water heaters for lots of residential customers. 

First, remove the overflow trim. Then, insert a water hose down overflow. 

When installing a toilet, the final touch is caulking around the base which can sometimes be a mess.
