www.plumberx.comHello this is PlumberX. People always ask me what gave you the idea and what made you create these how to plumbing videos? Coming up with the idea was easy. After many years as a plumber and servicing customers at there home I’ve seen a lot of people in tuff situations, people that could not afford a plumber, people that didn’t have time to wait for a plumber to come to there home and make repairs, hearing horror stories of Plumbers that have rip off costumers and gave bad service, to me this was a loud cry for help. One story come to mind; A friend of mine calls me and ask, PlumberX could you do me a favor and help this older lady that I know, and go by and look at her Plumbing, she needs plumbing work really bad but she’s to scared to call a plumber because of the cost, and she know that if I send you over there to check out the plumbing she can trust me as a friend recommending you, sure I said I could do that. The next day came and I went to the older lady’s home she came to the door with a pleasant smile very humble. I could see it in her eye’s she didn’t have to say a word ( What is this going to cost ) she was very polite and courteous. Sir would you like some thing to drink and I do appreciate you coming to check out my plumbing on such short notice. No problem mam, lets see what’s going on here with your plumbing. This way Sir in the kitchen. As I walk through the home I saw in the corner of my eye younger children around 3, 5 and 6 years of age …

Hello!
My husband & I are ready to just call a plumber but I thought it wouldn’t hurt to ask here…
The water pressure on our kitchen sink (faucet AND sprayer) has been steadily declining for a few months. It’s almost down to a trickle now. The rest of the house seems fine. We have very hard water, so we knew to check the strainer(?) on the end of the faucet for buildup, it is clear. Strangely, it also seems like it takes that sink much longer to get hot. Is that possible?
Is there anything else we should check? Do we just need a new kitchen sink? (That wouldn’t break my heart.. Then I could pick one out that I like better!)
Thanks in advance for your help!
Wow thanks so much.. You all have already been a huge help. It does make sense now that it would be something in the faucet & not an individual line since both hot & cold are low.
I’ll talk to my husband.. Thankfully he is very skilled with tools & home repair so he should be able to handle switching out a faucet. He’s never done it before but he’ll figure it out.
And we do need to look into a water softener for the whole house. I HATE all the crap that hard water leaves everywhere. Never knew what a pain it was until we moved here.
Aright this time we have a drain that’s draining slow on a bath sink And were going to put a little water in here Now were letting the water drain out notice how slow the water drains out Ok what were going to do were going to take that pop up out P trap and were going to clean that drain out First of all were going to get a bucket to catch the water from the drain Now right here were going to remove the pop up lever that pushes the plug up and down This way this will release the plug so that we can pull it up and out And pull out any trash or hair like this up out of there And let me tell you 85 percent of the time when the plumber comes to the house to unclog your bath sink this is all there doing In most cases there is know need to run a cable And know were just going to do a little extra And make sure that the p trap is not full with hair Ok that not to bad but you can see the hair was starting to get down in the drain And here were taking a hanger and pushing some tissue through So that we can clean the drain out completely See the rest of it just came out the other end here Now that we clean it out pretty good Now it’s time to start putting things back together starting with the p trap here Just cleaning a little bit of the hair off the lever to the pop up And As I put the pop up lever in I’m holding the plug up top you can’t see right now Ok now see this one drain much faster now
