I live in Florida and I am looking for a plumber who works with people on a fixed income. Any suggestions on whom I can call?
Why do I have hot water but not cold water when the shut offs are all on. We have 50 lbs of water pressure but no cold.
There are many reasons:
Perhaps your hot and cold-water pipes run parallel to one another and over time, the hot water pipe heats the cold water pipe.
Having high water pressure can cause hot water coming from the cold tap.
Perhaps the thermostat is broken and not properly regulating your water temperature.
If your home has a water expansion tank, this piece of equipment relies on a one-way valve to lower pressure on the water meter. Perhaps the valve is broken and the hot water flows into your cold water tap.
Perhaps during your home's plumbing installation, the heat trap was placed not in the water heating inlet and the hot water infiltrate the cold water lines.
Modern sink faucets have a cartridge in them to direct water flow. Perhaps your faucet has a faulty or broken cartridge, it could be directing water incorrectly or only drawing from the hot water pipe.

My mother is 59 years old, low income, and doesn't have the money to fix her sink in a bathroom. How can she get help?
I am an Home Health Aide and a lot of the elders I take care of go through the Ageing and Disability for similar things like this. They don't take too long to answer you back seeing as they are all for helping out elders who can't work and are in need of assistance.
Try going to your County Ageing and Disability offices, they should be able to help your mother with getting help to apply for any assistance she might need and finding an affordable company. They might even just pay for the whole thing even if she isn't qualified for any assistance through their company, they are usually great with helping out with these things. Good luck!

I live in Lakewood Colorado. I need help paying for my sewer line to get repaired; what can I do? I can't afford to get it fixed and it keeps backing up in my laundry room.

Please help.

We have no money, are in bankruptcy, and in danger of losing our home. How can I get low cost or free plumbing help?I need someone to move a drain in a basement floor. I am retired, and on a fixed income. I can probably dig around the drain pipe, and also fill in the hole. I just need the drain moved about 3 or 4 inches over, but I'm afraid if I don't get it right there will be leaks.
How or where can I get someone to move the drain?
I'm low income and my hot water heater went out. I don't have the money to go out and buy one.

I just moved and found out that the dog that lived here before my dogs had gotten parvo. Is it too late to give them their shots?
My grandmother's pipes are all messed up. They're all still old clay pipes. She had a plumber come out and look at them and they said one of them must have given out because there was so much mud (we initially thought it was just a clogged line). He gave us an estimate of 6k to dig up the pipes and replace with PVC. She lives alone and is a senior citizen whose only income is her SSI. Are there any programs or a way for her to get help to get this done?
The pipes have gotten so bad that it's just spilling water and sewage into her basement. We have looked into options of doing it ourselves, but are still running into the issue of having to get permits for everything and finding the time since we work full time jobs and have kids and of course the weather right now as well isn't the best.

HUD is there to help repair home for people on a fixed income or disable. You should make an appointment with the office near you and see if you qualify for assistance.
