I have extreme experience in plumbing, among other trades and I want to install a new shower faucet and such, but the apartment wont' let me cause I dont' hold a license in this state,

Since this is an condo I never encountered this. I got the hotwater figured out, question is the main cold supply. But is there some way around this?? perhaps i could cut the pipe, then quickly attach a compression shutoff supply then go from there. I would think this would be an idea, I'm going to test this theory with another supply with a shutoff before I attempt but main importance is homeowners dont' care, and are really fustrated that about the situation, and said if i can get aroudn it to do it, They own the condo, and it should be their right to do it.
So any suggestions from professional plumbers?

Well I took the chicken nuggets out of the oven and I went to wash the pan when it broke all the sudden what happened. Oh and the pieces went into my garbage disposal and now it isn't turning on at all. Is it the glass jamming it or is it broken completely.

We have well water and about 3 years ago we put in a new hot water tank. Ever since then, we get a smell when we turn on the water. Like sulfur or rotten eggs. We heard that it had something to do with a part that is in the hot water tanks now to prevent corrosion and make them last longer, but I don't know if that's true or not. Any help or ideas wouldbe greatly appreciated. Thanks !!

I am thinking of buying a home that has the entrance to the cellar threw the floor in the bedroom. the problem is that the cellar is in bad shape. The walls are cracked and so there is seepage and when it rains there is 1-2 inches of water. It drys out quickly but concerned about mold getting in to the house. would it be better to just fill it with concrete or do something else. the cellar is in really bad shape!

We moved into a home w/ an established lawn May 1st. It is now the end of Aug. and the drought here has rendered the lawn to look like straw. It is way too expensive for us to water here, plus they have restrictions on it anyways. Will the lawn come back once the rains come?
