Plumber Satellite Beach, FL

After shutting off the water supply and disconnecting the old toilet, the wax ring and mounting hardware are removed, and the flange is inspected for damage. The Kohler Gleam skirted toilet requires careful alignment because its concealed trapway and skirted design use a specialized mounting bracket. Once the bracket is secured, a new wax ring is installed, and the toilet is lowered into position. The bowl is then fastened, the tank is assembled, and the water supply line is connected. After turning the water back on, the toilet is tested for leaks, proper flushing performance, and stability. A bead of caulk is typically applied around the base to provide a finished appearance and help prevent movement.

Headed out to a home in Satellite Beach where the homeowner had been complaining about low water pressure throughout the house for months, worse in the morning and better in the afternoon. Tested incoming pressure at the meter and found it was well above normal range from the street, which pointed to a failing pressure regulator rather than a supply issue. Found the PRV near the main shutoff was nearly a decade past its service life and no longer reducing pressure consistently, letting high-pressure surges through at odd times and causing pressure fluctuation throughout the house. Replaced the pressure regulator with a new properly set unit, confirmed delivery pressure at multiple fixtures, and explained the homeowner's range for adjusting the setting if needed going forward.

Performed a pull and reset of the master bathroom toilet. Removed the existing toilet and inspected the flange, wax seal, and surrounding area for any signs of damage or leaks. Installed a new wax ring, reset and properly aligned the toilet, secured it to the flange, and reconnected the water supply. Tested the toilet for proper operation and verified there were no leaks at the base or supply connection. Cleaned the work area and confirmed the toilet was stable and functioning correctly.

Arrived on site and met with the homeowner regarding a guest bathroom backup. The homeowner explained that flushing the toilet caused wastewater to back up into the bathtub, while all other fixtures in the home were draining properly. Determined the issue was isolated to the guest bathroom drain line. Provided an estimate to remove the toilet and cable the drain through the toilet flange, which the homeowner approved. Removed standing water from the bathtub, toilet bowl, and tank using a shop vacuum, then pulled the toilet and confirmed the blockage was located in the drain line at the flange. Ran drain cable through the toilet flange and located the obstruction approximately 20 feet out. Worked through the blockage until the line cleared and verified the water level receded properly. Reset the toilet, tested the fixture, and confirmed the guest bathroom was draining normally with no further backups.

Arrived on site and spoke with the homeowner, who stated that he would like the existing garbage disposal removed and the drain reconfigured using standard tubular piping beneath the sink. After inspecting the existing plumbing and determining the work required, I provided the homeowner with an estimate for the repair. After reviewing the estimate, the homeowner politely declined, stating that the cost was higher than expected at this time. The homeowner advised that he will contact us when he is ready to proceed with the repair.

Arrived on site to address a guest bathroom sewer backup. Inspected the affected fixtures and confirmed the drainage issue was isolated to the guest bathroom. Cleared the blockage using appropriate drain cleaning equipment, then tested the toilet and other fixtures to verify proper drainage. Confirmed the sewer line is flowing correctly and the guest bathroom is operating normally at this time.

Arrived on site and met with the homeowner regarding a kitchen sink that was not draining and backing up immediately when water was run. Provided an estimate to clear the drain line, which the homeowner approved before beginning work. Removed the P-trap and inspected the drain connection, where heavy grease buildup was observed in the waste arm. Set up drain cleaning equipment and ran the cable through the line until the blockage was located. Worked through the obstruction and continued cabling approximately 40–45 feet to ensure the line was fully cleared. Reassembled the drain connections and tested the kitchen sink by running water through multiple fill-and-drain cycles. Verified proper drainage with no backups or restrictions. Reviewed the completed work with the homeowner and confirmed the kitchen sink was operating normally at this time.

Arrived on site and met with the tenants regarding wastewater backing up into the kitchen sink when the washing machine was running. Tested the system by stopping the dishwasher during operation and observed wastewater backing up into the sink. Attempted to recreate the issue using the washing machine but was unable to duplicate the backup. Contacted the homeowner and recommended a camera inspection to evaluate the sewer line. The homeowner advised the property is on a septic system and the tank was last pumped approximately one year ago. After approval, performed a camera inspection through the roof vent stacks and advanced the camera approximately 50 feet to inspect the line. Documented findings and reviewed the results with the homeowner for further recommendations.

Arrived on site and met with the homeowner, who reported that the bottom of the kitchen vanity was damp and beginning to warp. Upon further inspection, it was determined that the kitchen faucet had been leaking continuously, causing moisture damage to the bottom of the vanity. The homeowner will be purchasing a replacement kitchen faucet and will contact us to schedule installation once the new fixture is available.
