Today my bathroom faucet got loose. I noticed that the U shaped fastener got all rusted. The other side is still good. I wonder if it's possible to buy a fastener only?
Thanks!

Good one on the other side:

Is it possible to puncture PVC sewer line under slab?
Comments (1)Hadrian, the "screw top outlet" you are referring to is the cleanout for the line. It is angled to the vertical downcoming sewer lines, is it not? That gives access so you can run an auger down into the line to remove clogs if necessary. That's why it's located above the slab. The slab itself should be at least 5" thick, and the sewer lines are buried under the slab. Where the downcoming sewer line enters the slab, it would be under the BOTTOM of the slab, before it bends to run horizontally with a slope to connect to the city line on the street. So the farther away from that entry point, the line will be deeper (more below the bottom of the slab). With the 1" depth of penetration, you should not have a problem.

Comments (9)yeah it looks like you guys can try and replace it. I feel like it should be fine in the end. But like who came up with the idea in the first place? It's such a strange solution in my opinion. I've actually been looking to renovating the plumbing in our house and we are going to probably change the bathroom and the kitchen faucets as well. I've been looking for some options online for the kitchen (I want to start there, since it usually is a lot messier and I need the kitchen to be done faster), and I cam across this really nice article that gives you the pros and cons of some of the most popular models on the market. (You can check it here: https://www.kitchenhomelet.com) I feel like it's very helpful when you don't really want to go to Home Depo...See MoreNeed advice/input on possible replacement window/style
