Just call 555-AXIS. I’ve got all your plumbing needs.

Now, my real question is: Do you unclog your toilet yourself, or do you order a handyman?

I have a 10 yr old townhouse and every time I turn the water on, there’s this nocking noise coming out of one spot behind the wall. I’m guessing it’s an air pocket in plumbing or something. It sure goes away after a while, but I ‘d like to get rid of it. Is there a way to fix it all by yourself? What should I do?

I am providing interior painting, wall anchoring services, assembly of pre-fab furniture, putting up shelves, general repairs and maintenance, and organization help. During my career while working with employers I have installed audio visual systems and have almost 2 years in as a plumbing apprentice.

I’m looking for ideas on what is really fun to do and what makes good consistant money.

Something that is low effort would be nice too. It’s hard to believe what one can put into a paint job to do it right!
