94 Plumber Questions And Answers

41⟩ Suppose a customer needs a new toilet installed, you remove the old one and find the floor to be rotting all around the toilet, what do you do?

If the floor around the flange and wax ring is that bad, and I felt it to be unsafe, I see what I could do to fix and replace the floor that is rotting. If I feel that the floor is rotting that bad, and a lot of it needs to be replaced, first I would call my boss and see if he wants me and other employees to take on the job, or if I should recommend a company that can do a good job with the floor.

42⟩ Tell me a project or task you performed and found particularly difficult? How did you manage it?

A renovation project – I did last year – was particularly challenging because the building had been damaged in an earthquake and had multiple concealed leaks. To add to the problem, blue prints of the building’s plumbing were unavailable. It took me a week to figure out the exact piping, come up with a blue print and determine the damages only. I then issued cost estimation and the whole project was completed in another 2 weeks.

43⟩ Suppose I have need Rooter Service, do I have to call one of those national rooter chains?

No. We would recommend that you call a qualified, trained and certified plumber. Why? The water pipes inside and outside your home can be very delicate. In an older home, pipes wear thin from the inside out making them appear sound but in fact are very brittle. An unqualified and unskilled rooter company could cause extensive damage to your pipes and your home. The highly trained and certified technicians at Blue Mountain will take the time to properly diagnose the problem and utilize the right tools and techniques to solve the problem. Should there be an issue of a broken pipe or other unforeseen problems after we begin the job, our expert plumbers can immediately take action. Can the other guys? We're not sure and we don't recommend that you take a chance.
