Pride Plumbing was called out for a Briggs toilet not flushing. Our inspection found that the toilet's drain line had kitty litter in it. We cut out the affected section of drain line, replaced the piping with new PEX piping and Fernco couplings, replaced the toilet flange and wax ring gasket, reset the toilet, and tested for leaks and proper operation with no further issues. We also provided cost estimates to 1) repipe and replace the drain lines in the crawlspace, going to all the fixtures in the home (kitchen, one bathroom, and a washing machine), with new PVC piping; installing new fittings and supports under the house for each fixture and air admittance valves inside the home where needed; 2) replace a 40-gallon electric lowboy water heater with a new 40-gallon electric lowboy model; and 3) replace a bathtub/showers’ drain assembly, P-trap, and drain line with a new Watco drain and PVC piping and fittings.
