12 episodes on water heaters, slab leaks, sewer lines, burst pipes, and plumbers explaining what a call really costs before you make it.
Plumbing is a small topic on this show and a loud one in your house. A dozen episodes, almost all of them with a working plumber in the room, and the through line is that the expensive failures are the slow ones you cannot see.
Paul the Plumber and his wife Deborah came on twice, on tankless water heaters, how old a water heater gets before it becomes a problem, sink strainers, disposals on a septic system, and what an emergency call actually involves at two in the morning. Ryan Burke of Burke Family Plumbing covered sewer line cameras and replacement cost, winterizing sprinklers, backflow anti siphon valves, and toilet fill valves. The Fisher family explained sewer gas from a dried out P-trap, the AC condensate line, water heaters in the attic, and flood stop devices.
Leaks got a specialist. Jim of JC's Leak Detection walked through finding a slab leak, reading your own water meter for the tattler, running an evaporation test on a pool, and the cases where a plumber is the wrong call entirely. Eric Blanco of Dry Guys handled the aftermath: mold remediation, a nail driven through a pipe, why bleach is the wrong answer, and whole home dehumidifiers.
Snowmageddon 2021 was recorded during Winter Storm Uri with pipes bursting across Texas, and the follow up episode has Paul on PEX against PVC and why a pipe in an exterior wall is a decision somebody made years before you moved in.
There is a U by Moen digital shower valve review, a permanent toilet stain treatment carrying a 10 year warranty, and an episode about building latrines by hand in Honduras, which puts the rest of it in perspective. Start wherever your leak is.
