Bathroom Plumbing

People usually call about a leaking bathroom fixture, slow tub or shower drainage, a planned fixture change, or a bathroom renovation.

If water or sewage is spreading, call (850) 880-6797 now instead of sending a request. If you smell gas, leave the building and call 911 or the gas utility from outside first, then call Beach to Bayou.

The technician looks at the fixture or the project plan, the shutoffs, where the supply and drain lines run, venting, dimensions, and what tile or finish is in the way. A repair and a remodel are planned as separate jobs.

The final scope depends on what the technician finds and what can be reached, and the technician goes over the options with you before any work starts.

Many bathrooms here are built on a slab and finished in tile, so moving a drain or opening a wall costs more than it looks. Humidity and rental turnover wear shower and vanity connections faster. Pick fixtures that fit the rough-in you already have.

If the property is a rental, a second home, or an open business, include who can let the technician in and when.

When you call or send a request, mention which bathroom and fixture, whether it is a repair or a remodel, any visible water, the fixture model or size, the project stage, and who is handling tile and finish work.

Before the visit, and only where it is safe to do so, clear a path to the problem area, put pets away, and leave the plumbing assembled until the technician has seen it.
