Be Very Careful with Natural Gas Lines.

Natural gas is the one of the great inventions of modern man.  Believe it or not the use of natural gas in this country goes back almost 200 years.  In the beginning it was used to fuel street lamps in the Baltimore area.  Nowadays natural gas powers heaters, stoves, dryers, as well as various other household appliances.

Are you at a point in your home where you wish to add to your natural gas system?  Perhaps you need to have an existing system restored.  Your local gas company will require a permit to be pulled from their files so that an inspection may be performed.  This is not something that the layperson would do on their own.

Natural gas repair experts Poor Johns Plumbing will do it all for you.  If you live in the greater Kansas City area they will pull the permit on your behalf.  Then they will proceed to examine your natural gas system and make all of the necessary repairs.  If you need re-piping, that is no problem for the Kansas City natural gas experts.  For the proper number to call in your area visit www.poorjohns.com.

A Kansas City Plumber who Displays Prices.

Here is a challenge for you.  Look up any plumber in the Kansas City area and see if they have an entire page that prominently displays their prices.  Have you seen such a thing?  Plumbers generally make their money when they come to someone’s home or business and the job turns out to be “bigger” than you thought when you called them.

Check this out…

Garbage Disposal $85 labor.

Kitchen Sink Faucet $95 labor.

Kitchen Sink Repair $50 plus parts.

Kitchen Sink Overhaul $75 plus parts.

Do you know where you can find prices like that (and others) listed on a website?  They are found at www.poorjohns.com.  Poor Johns is a Kansas City area plumber that not only is not afraid to share their pricing, but is rightfully proud of it.  Visit their website today and call the number that corresponds to the area of KC where you reside.  24/7 it’s Poor Johns plumbing for more than a quarter of a century.

How Old is Your Water Heater?

If you have been “whistling past the graveyard” with your water heater you probably should pay some attention to replacing it.  Have you had it for more than a decade?  If so, it may be past its expiration date and you may be headed for a flooded basement or garage.  Problems with water heaters often happen without warning.  If you notice ANY leaking whatsoever coming from your water heater it will only get worse.

Even if your water heater is less than a decade old, a few maintenance repairs may be necessary at this time.  If your heater won't stay lit, or leaks water continuously it is time to at the very least have your water heater accessed by a professional.  You may find that repairs, rather than replacement, is an option.  Wouldn’t that be nice?

For decades people in the Kansas City area have trusted Poor John’s Plumbing for all of their residential and commercial water heater needs.  They have a cute name and a serious reputation when it comes to plumbing repair of any kind in the KC metro.  Check out their website for the phone number that applies to your area at www.poorjohns.com.

How to Install a Toilet Handle.

Some plumbing problems can be handled by you…yes you Mr. or Ms. DIY!  There is one in particular that may be within your reach.  If you have had problems with a running toilet you may need a new handle or flapper.  The most important first step is to make sure that if you go to a plumbing supply store and get the proper parts that you are TRULY able to complete the task without creating a disaster.

Remove the lid from the top of the tank.  Then disconnect the flapper chain from the handle.  Inside you will almost certainly see a plastic nut.  Loosen that next.  Then thread the new handle through the hole in the tank.  Reattach the nut and give it an extra turn with a wrench to make sure it is tight.  And finally, give it a test.

Again, if you are able to do this yourself successfully then more power to you.  But when you need plumbing repair expertise you need to trust the professionals at Poor Johns Plumbing.  Poor Johns has been serving the plumbing needs of the entire Kansas City area for decades.  We are standing by 24/7 to fix or install your plumbing.  Please visit our website for the phone number that applies to your area at www.poorjohns.com.
