Why we sort by fixture
Most calls start with a single thing in the house misbehaving: a toilet that keeps topping up its tank, a kitchen tap that drips with the lever shut, a shower that swings from scalding to cold, a washing machine box that leaves a puddle behind the dryer. Each of those fixtures has its own small set of parts and its own handful of usual faults, so this section of the catalogue gives every fixture a listing of its own.
What each listing covers
Every fixture page names the parts we carry on the van for it, the signs that point to one fault over another, and the order of work once the cabinet doors are open. Toilets get flappers, fill valves, wax rings and closet bolts. Faucets get cartridges, seats, springs and braided supplies. Showers get pressure-balancing cartridges and, where the wall has to come open, a new valve body soldered or crimped in place.
Appliance hookups
Dishwashers, garbage disposals and laundry boxes sit on the line between plumbing and appliances. We handle the water side: the supply, the shut-off, the drain hose, the air gap or high loop, and the trap the waste empties into.
When the fixture is not the problem
Sometimes a slow sink or a gurgling toilet is a symptom of a blocked branch line further down. If the fault turns out to be in the drain rather than the fixture, the plumber says so and points you to the right listing under Repairs before any extra work is done.
