i was emptying my dirty mop water and forget that there was a rag in the water. while pouring the water out, the rag fell into the toilet and ****** down into the pipe. too far for me to reach. so i flushed it, hoping that would unclear the pipe and **** it down, but it overflowed immediately. and plunging is getting me nowhere.
So how can i get this rag out without having to call a plumber? is it possible?

How much does it cost for a plumber to snake a main pipe clean out?

fazzk7 asked:
So the entire house drain system is backed up. Every drain is clogged after I plunged a clog from the bathtub, must have gotten stuck somewhere down the line. Toilets cant flush, water eventually backs into bathtubs if we run too much water. I figure that the main sewer clean out will need to be snaked. Any advice?

I have to get new water line from the meter to water heater, and new lines to 1 kitchen sink, and 2 bathroom ( tub, sink, toilet) and vents need to be added. I will prefer pex tubing for the job. A permit needs to be taken out.
Any comments will be appreciated.

How do I soften plumber’s putty?

J S asked:
I ‘ve got a can in the garage that is pretty hard, crumbles, and not sticky any more. Tried working it and that helped a little. Is there something I can add to bring it back to a soft state or just throw in the garbage. What is the ingredient in plumber’s putty that softens it?

I have heard mixed things about whether these products will damage pipes (e.g. based on types of pipes, age, etc). Can anyone provide info or suggest alternate products. We tried a product that pumped air into the pipe, but that didn’t work due to air escaping out of the overflow drain (this is a bathtub)

Redoing my kitchen and need the pipeline either just moved or shortened. I’m told that plumbers do that, any other profession? Any idea of cost? It seems like a relatively small job.
Don’t know if I gave the impression that I was going to try to “do it myself”, not that at all. Want to know what professional is the best bet and if you are that type of professional cost.

If a plumber puts in a boiler but refuses to sign the boiler warranty saying so, can you withhold paying him?
Filed Under Maintenance & Repairs | 4 Comments
Prettywoman asked:
My friend is having trouble getting her plumber to sign the warranty for the new boiler he just put in and everyone is telling her not to pay him until he’s signed it. She gave it to him to sign, and he gave it back to her folded up but when she looked at it after he’d gone, he still hadn’t signed it, just filled in his name and address at the top of the form. He’s a Type A plumber i.e. angry all the time, and she’s nervous.
