This is the last time I touch a pipe wrench!:af:

Carry on!

Dude, just dangle some wood out there an Tattoo Bob will be right over :hee:

Instead, use a monkey wrench. :rollem:

Wha happened ?:huh:

Thats the one thing in the house I won't screw with. I'll mess with the electrical....but I stay away from dem pipes

No electrical at all for me! Plumbing......even the small tasks give me fits! Had a clogged drain in the bathroom and next thing you know I am replacing the trap to the drain stop!!!!! Course the dang new drain stop leaks.....gotta get some plumbers putty in the am!:conf:

This is why I don't work in residential any more, everyone thinks there a plumber, until they get in over there head.
that and I don't really like anyone

Done! Time for a pro! Its just a clogged and leaking bathroom sink drain Bob....worth a shot to fix it myself!! Replacing the plumbing to the bathroom and kitchen soon anyway so....maybe just do it now!:behead:

Larry your good with toobing, give it hell.

The multiple trips to Home Cheapo at $3.00 a gallon is what kills ya.

Thanks again Kenny!!! Gotta love a plumber that works for wood! Kenny is da man!:bgi:

Replace 10' at a time, you have the water shut off. And put in some drip couplings or 90's in the low spots, so you can get the water out.

You should check your water system and make sure it is grounded properly It may be electrolisis (spelling) the water picks up and wears down your pipe from the inside out, I if you have green stains in your sinks or tub this is a sign of it.

Could also be high acidity in the water. Town or well?

Acid, quite common in the area. Fixtures aren't green thank God.

stinking pipe wrench :mad:

it's all about adapters and wonderful new pvc threaded fitting's
and the best stuff in the world teflon tape - hand tight easy to maintain


:jump:

If you are doing your own plumbing, the trick I have learned is buy more than you will need. If you are not sure which size fittiing buy both. It is still less expensive than a pro. Of course this assumes that you have some mechanical skills. If it's a trap under a counter or hidden plastic is a good thing.
If all else fails there is always duct tape, hose clamps or a pail.......

RTV silicone, and lots of it. I have a plastic to galvy steel connection that I siliconed nearly 30 years ago, still no drips.

Plumbers, feel free to freak out here

you are the MAN ...........lol :tooth:

Yea really, Plumbers GOOP and lots of it :rotf2:
