Plumbers in Stone Mountain, GA

Customer had leak previously in kitchen and was having cabinets redone. Cabinets were already torn out. Replaced cast drain and put in pvc with a new waste arm through the floor to connect to existing pvc. Connected back at the top of the tee with a no hub fitting. Stubbed out the line at 18 inches for standard rough. Lowered it from the existing rough by about 1.5 inches. Cut out caps for water lines below the floor and ran new 3/4 pex line for the hot side and new 1/2 water line for the cold side back through the floor. Noted an old shutoff under the floor in poor condition with a water line in poor condition. Traced the line back behind the refrigerator and found it wasn’t connected. There was no water dispenser or ice tray found in the refrigerator or freezer. Installed a 1/4 inch shutoff below, but didn’t disconnect the abandoned water line due to age and apparent condition. Pricing can be given later to run a water line if the customer wishes. Restored flow to the home and tested

Customer had a toilet in half bath by kitchen with rusted seat bolts that were too risky to replace. Replaced the toilet with a new Western toilet. Inspected and flange and found no apparent cracks, but noted to customer that the abs flange wasn’t flush with the floor because it’s a 2 pies flange and the middle was elevated in one side of the flange. If there are any issues with sealing or rocking in the future the flange will need to be replaced. For now put a flanged wax ring and put shims on the opposite side for the toilet to seat properly and sit level without rocking. Flushed toilet multiple times to ensure there were no leaks, none were found. Put a fresh bead of caulk around the toilet and let customer know that the caulk needs 24 hours to dry properly.

For this job, I worked on replacing main water service entirely. Added new main shut off in crawlspace.
