My bathroom plumbing is over 40 y.o. The tub won’t drain and I tried to use a wire hanger thinking it was just clogged with hair.Under the crossed drain I’m hitting metal so, I’m thinking the drain lever is broken and stuck in the closed position.

I am putting a bathtub in my basement and it has old plumbing that has been mounted about 2ft from the floor on the wall this includes the drain pipe. How can I hook up the bathtub drain so that the tub will drain without doing any damage to the current ceramic flooring? Do I need some kind of pump? If so what kind?

This is a newer home and I have a slow drain in the bathtub and I believe it is causing a leak in the plumbing causing it to drain throught the ceiling to the downstairs. I can’t get the drain out of the bathtub to even stop the clog. How on earth do you get those things out. And why dont they just make them like they used to, a good ole rubber stopper with a chain on it. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We had a semi-major plumbing issue that we had to have our water turned off to our house for over 24 hours. Well when we turned the water back on we had a lot of sand come through the faucets. And in our son’s bathroom the bathtub won’t stop running. It’s not a drip its a constant flow. And in other parts of our house the water pressure is low? Our plumbing issue was out in front of our house. A pipe came loose under our driveway. Help please!!

The water from the shower is turning the tub near the drain a reddish color. WHat is it from and how can i keep it clean? It doesn’t seem to be happening in any of the sinks or anything. We do, however, have multiple plumbing problems in our apartment/duplex.

I have been reading a lot of Katie Fforde books and it seems all her character’s bathtubs have immersion heaters. The only immersion heater I am familar with is a little coil that is plugged in and stuck in a mug of water to heat it up. I can’t imagine that is how it works for a bathtub.
On a side note, I find it interesting that in the English books I read, the characters only take showers if that is all that is available. In America, only kids take baths on a regular basis - adults take showers. Is the plumbing that different or is it just a cultural thing?

I would like to use my portable washer in the bathroom. Under the old bathtub spout there is a threaded piece sticking out that is capped. Maybe for a hand held shower attachment at some point? I don’t know anything about plumbing. Is it possible to hook up the quick connect adapter for the washer to this instead of the kitchen sink?
