Plumbing & Bathroom

The plumbing that keeps water where it belongs.

Faucets, toilets, valves, supply lines, slow drains, garbage disposals, and fresh caulk. The everyday plumbing a handyman can do, done without flooding your kitchen.

What I Cover

The honest scope

A huge share of household plumbing does not need a permit or a licensed plumber, and it is exactly the stuff that goes wrong most. That is my lane, and after 30 years I have fixed every version of it. New lines, repipes, gas, or anything to code goes to a licensed plumber, and I will tell you which camp your job is in for free.

Faucet & Fixture Swaps

Kitchen and bath faucets, sprayers, and fixtures swapped clean, with new supply lines so it does not drip the day after.

Toilet Repairs

Running and leaking toilets fixed, fill valves and flappers replaced, and toilets reset on a fresh wax ring so there is no rocking and no leak at the base.

Valves, Supply Lines & P-Traps

Corroded shut-off valves, supply lines, and P-traps replaced before they fail at the worst possible moment.

Drain Clearing

Slow and clogged bathtub, shower, and sink drains snaked and flowing again. Recurring main line clogs I will flag for a licensed pro.

Garbage Disposals

New disposals installed or old ones swapped out and plumbed clean under the sink.

Re-Caulking

Sinks and tubs re-caulked so water stays out of your walls and floors instead of quietly rotting them.

Honest Note

Where I stop and a specialist starts

New water lines, repipes, sewer and main line work, water heater replacement, gas, and anything requiring a permit or inspection is licensed plumber territory. I will say so plainly and point you to someone good rather than guess on your dime.

Plumbing & Bathroom: common questions

What plumbing can a handyman legally do in Kansas City?
Fixture swaps, faucet and toilet repairs, valve and supply line work, garbage disposals, and clearing minor drain clogs. Kansas City requires a licensed plumber for new lines, repipes, sewer work, gas, and anything needing a permit. I stay firmly in the legal lane and refer out the rest.
My faucet leaks. Repair or replace?
If it is a worn washer or cartridge, often a cheap repair. If the fixture is old, corroded, or leaking from the body, a swap is usually the smarter spend. After 30 years I can usually tell you which before I touch it.
Can you fix a running or leaking toilet?
Yes. Most are a quick fill valve or flapper swap, or a reset on a fresh wax ring if it is leaking at the base. If the flange itself is broken, that adds a little time and I will flag it upfront.
Can you clear a slow drain?
Slow and clogged sink, tub, and shower drains, yes. If it is a recurring main line clog, that points to a bigger issue and I will tell you it is time for a licensed pro with a camera.

Not sure if it is a "you" job or a "specialist" job?
