FAQ
Fixtures & Appliances: common questions
Is a running toilet actually worth calling about?
A continuously running toilet can waste hundreds of gallons a day, and it is one of the cheapest repairs in plumbing. It is worth calling about purely on the water bill.
Can a plumber install a fixture I bought myself?
Usually, yes. A good plumber will tell you before starting if what you bought is missing parts, is the wrong rough-in size, or is a model with a known failure record. Manufacturer warranties on customer-supplied fixtures stay with you; ask the plumber what workmanship warranty, if any, covers the installation.
Why do plumbers recommend replacing supply lines and angle stops?
Because braided supply lines and old shut-off valves fail, and when they do, they release water at full pressure into a cabinet with nobody home. They are inexpensive to replace during work you are already paying for, and replacing them is the single highest-value preventive thing in a house.
Do plumbers handle dishwasher and ice maker connections?
Usually. A proper connection includes the shut-off valve, supply line, drain air gap or high loop, and testing under pressure before the plumber leaves.
