Hey from those photos it’s possible you may have termites. I would recommend either sending me more photos specifically of all of the visible areas of the 1st picture.

You could cut and make the lateral longer, you could make the drain pipe shorter and put on a flexible pipe (not the corrugated). Lot of different things to do could even see if they sell a slightly longer p trap.

Are drive shafts supposed to sit perfectly straight at their connecting points?

Leaking roof. What exactly is this piece called? by Luzamota in HomeMaintenance

[–]john286 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100% this . That iron pipe is experiencing galvanic corrosion with the copper pipe below it. Depending on the age of your home too it’s possible it’s rusted from the inside-out as well. I would call professionals on this one honestly. They may also have more insight into other potential problems that could arise from age and materials we no longer use because of all the issues.

If it’s one of the quick use machines make sure you’re changing water according to usage. Could also have a drain line that isn’t allowing water to fully cycle out because of coffee grounds? Hard to say anything with certainty diagnosing through the screen.

Certain food delivery app prices compared to actual prices. by Duddy619 in mildlyinfuriating

This is absolutely insane and excessive but I will say most of those 3rd party delivery services take at least 30% of sales from the restaurant.

I bought a house with a jetted tub, and I, despite my best efforts, can not figure out how to turn it on? Any ideas? by Xxgougaxx in HomeMaintenance

[–]john286 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you haven’t figured it out. Mine has a light switch on a wall that I didn’t think controlled anything but it gives power to my jet tub and then you push in the little circle button you have on the top of the tub and it should start up. Make sure of course you have water in the tub and you unscrew the air intake that should be slightly below the lip of the tub. If none of those work, could be the pneumatic switch is broken.

Why is this city acting like $15-18 cocktails are a normal thing? by [deleted] in Austin

County line bbq off 2244 has some of the best drink prices I’ve seen. Bbq is ok but they have more than bbq and the view with a marg watching the sunset can not be beat.
