Hi Guys
I just bought a house in July and am starting to have some plumbing problems. Last week we discovered that there was water in the basement and called a plumber to take a look at it and he replaced the wax ring and no more leak. Today I came home to find there was water in the basement again so called them again, and they think that the water this time is caused my the old caulking around the tub so I have to scrape it up and apply new caulk.
Also when they were here I asked about the main shutoff valve, Because I tried to turn it and the plastic handle just spins? Does the handle just have to be replaced or the whole thing? ( they said it would have to be, ) and what would the cost be? they werent able to give me a exact quote on it right now and have to call tommorrow to there office.
Thanks
