Replaced right water heater in attic. Left water heater still working, expansion tank still working, recirc pump still working. Left estimate to replace other water heater, pump, and expansion tank when other tank stops working. No further issue at this time.
For this job, I worked on replacing fill valve on toilet.
Replace faucet with similar style. Faucet will be Delta or Moen.
For this job, I worked on clearing bathtub drain.
Customer had leak on Kohler pull out prayer for kitchen faucet. Recommended contacting Kohler so they can send replacement parts for free. Customer had slow draining tub. Determined it to be from a turn style stopper where the overflow is. Removed the turn style and installed a regular overflow plate. Made customer aware overflow is chrome and will match the tub shoe but not the trim for the tub/shower. Inspected the wast and overflow gasket and it was tight and in good condition. Put a bead of caulk around the top of the new overflow plate.
For this job, I worked on replacing old sewer ejector pump.
Install ice maker valve box and supply line behind fridge. Ran 1/2” uponor line over to nearest copper cold line in crawlspace and tied in. Tested for leak. Installed nail guard behind trim board.
Customer was removing hardware from claw foot tub to be reenameled. Customer couldn’t get the tub shoe out. Removed the tub shoe for a minor diagnostic fee. Cautioned customer that due to rusting the removal can cause further damage.
Tunnel through soil in the crawlspace to replace 10’ of cast iron pipe in a hard-to-reach area. Ran 3” pipe outside, replaced a section of 6” terracotta, and installed a cleanout for the mainline. Due to space limitations, a one-way cleanout was installed by the gate for easy access. After discovering more broken terracotta under the HVAC condenser, we trenched 8’ further, replaced the damaged section with PVC, and reinforced the transition with hydraulic foam. Backfilled with sand and tamped down. Camera inspection ensured no issues in the replaced sections.
I installed a new kitchen faucet to replace the old, leaking one. After shutting off the water supply, I removed the old faucet and cleaned the sink surface to ensure a proper fit for the new fixture. I installed the new single-handle faucet with an integrated sprayer, securing it tightly to the sink. All supply lines were connected, and I replaced the old, worn-out flexible hoses with new ones for improved water flow and reliability. Once installation was complete, I turned the water back on and tested the faucet for proper operation, ensuring there were no leaks or pressure issues.
I used a toilet auger to clear a blockage causing slow drainage. After inserting the auger into the toilet bowl, I carefully extended it through the trap to break up and remove the obstruction. Once the blockage was cleared, I flushed the toilet several times to ensure smooth water flow. The toilet is now functioning properly without any drainage issues.
