Leaking Pipes
A higher than
normal water bill might be your first indication of a leaking
pipe. Or you might hear the sound of running water even though all
your fixtures are turned off.
When you suspect a leak,
check the fixtures first to make sure all the faucets are tightly
closed. Then go to the water meter, if you have one. If the dial is
moving, you're losing water somewhere in the system.
Plumbing Emergencies
In
a plumbing emergency, you'll need to stop the flow of water quickly. To
do this, you and each member of your family needs to know the location
of the shutoff valve for every fixture and appliance, as well as the
main shutoff valve for the house, and how they operate.
If the emergency
involves a specific fixture or appliance, first look for its shutoff
valve and turn it clockwise to shut off the water to that fixture or
appliance only.
The valve is usually
located underneath a fixture such as a sink or a toilet, or behind an
appliance, such as a clothes washer, at the point where the water supply
pipe (or pipes) connects to it.
If the problem is not
with a particular fixture or appliance, or if there's no shutoff valve
for the fixture or appliance, use the main shutoff valve to turn off the
water supply to the entire house.
You'll find the main
shutoff valve on the inside or outside of your house where the main
water supply pipe enters. In cold climates, look just inside the
foundation wall in the basement or crawl space.
Turn the valve clockwise
to shut it off. Professional Tip If you need a wrench to turn the
valve, keep one, specially labeled near the valve so it's handy.
If the main shutoff
valve itself is defective and needs to be repaired, call your water
company; they can send someone out with the special tool that's required
to shut off the water at the street before it reaches the valve.
Leaking or Broken Pipe
Turn off the main shutoff valve to prevent water damage.
Quick Fixes: Stick
a pencil point into the hole and break it off, then wrap the pipe with
electrician's tape. Smear some plumber's epoxy repair putty over the
tape to make sure it doesn't leak. Let it set for half an hour and
turn the water back on.
Wrap a piece of rubber
(like an old inner tube) around the pipe over the hole, and then use a C
clamp and small blocks of wood to clamp the rubber wrap tightly in
place.
If you have them, hose
clamps around the rubber covering the hole could also be used to keep
water from leaking. Don't have any old rubber that can act as a repair.
Cut a piece of garden
hose long enough to cover the hole in the pipe plus two or three inches
on each side.
Slice the garden hose
lengthwise and position it over the hole in the pipe. Once again, use
hose clamps to keep it in place and stop water from leaking.
Then, call one of our
plumbing professionals out to determine the cause of the problem and
possibly pinpoint where the leak is coming from with our high efficiency
water or gas leak detection equipment.

Hi,
My name is Lawrence Smith, President and Founder of Sugar Bear
Plumbing, Inc. Born in Jackson, Mississippi; hometown - Hazlehurst,
Mississippi.
Moved to
Richmond, Ca. in 1988. By 1991 my father relocated us to Diamond
Heights in San Francisco, Ca.
With over 45
years of plumbing under his belt, that led me to be like father, like
son. Sugar Bear was a nickname given to me by a local couple, who became good friends of mine in 1997.
San
Francisco is one of the many cities I have visited and I'm proud to say
it's my new home. I started Sugar Bear Plumbing in 2001 with the support
of my wife & step daughter.
A few years
later came my look-a-like son & daughter. We now live in South San
Francisco.

Toilets:
How a toilet works:There are two assemblies concealed under the lid of a
toilet tank. 1. A ball cock assembly, which regulates the filling
of the tank, and 2. A flush valve assembly, which controls the flow
of water from the tank to the bowl.When someone presses the flush
handle, the trip lever raises the lift wires or chain connected
to the tank stopper. As the stopper goes up water rushes through the
valve seat into the bowl via the flush passages. The water in the bowl
yields to gravity and is siphoned out the trap.Once the tank empties,
the stopper drops into the flush valve seat. The float ball trips the
ball cock assembly to let a new supply of water into the tank through
the tank fill tube. As the tank water level rises, the float ball rises
until it gets high enough to shut off the flow of water. If the water
fails to shut off, the overflow tube carries water down into the bowl to
prevent an overflow. Unclog Clogged Toilets Keep your toilet from
running excessively Fix toilet loud noises Fix your leaking toilet Mid

Clogged Drains No plumbing problem is more common or more frustrating
than a clogged drain. ? Kitchen sink drains clog most often
because of a buildup of grease that traps food particles. ? Hair
and soap are often at fault in bathroom drains. Drains can usually be
cleared easily and inexpensively, but taking some simple precautions
will help you avoid stop-ups. Proper disposal of kitchen waste will keep
sink drain clogs to a minimum. Don't pour grease down the kitchen sink.
? Don't wash coffee grounds down the sink. Throw them out.
? Be sparing with chemical cleaners, particularly if you have
brass, steel, or cast-iron traps and drainpipes; some caustic chemicals
can corrode metal pipes. ? If used no more than once every few
months, cleaners containing sodium hydroxide or sodium nitrate can be
safe and effective. ? Clean floor drain strainers. Some tubs,
showers, and basement floor drains have strainers that are screwed into
the drain opening. You can easily remove these strainers and reach down
into the drain with a bent wire to clear out accumulated debris. And be
sure to scrub the strainer. ? Clean pop-up stoppers in the
bathroom sink and the tub regularly. Lift out sink pop-ups once a week
and rinse them off. ? Every few months, remove the overflow plate
on a tub and pull up the pop-up assembly to reach the spring or rocker
arm. Remove accumulated hair and rinse thoroughly. ? Keep the
sewer pipes from the house free of tree roots that may invade them. If
roots are a particular problem in your yard, you may need to call in
professionals once a year or so to clear the pipes. They'll use an
electric auger to cut out the roots. ? Flush the drain-waste and
vent systems whenever you go up onto your house roof to clean out
downspouts or gutters. Run water from a garden hose into all vents,
giving them a minute or two of full flow. Request service on-line and
save 15%, or phone us, or email us at info@sugarbearplumbing.com.
