OK... In my upstairs bathroom, I am having two problems.. one is that after a bath or shower the drain makes a continuous girgle sound.. it sounds like the water is running in the drain.. Also I have low pressure when I turn the water on.. Any suggestions on these two..

Hi Val,
"after a bath or shower the drain makes a continuous girgle sound ..it sounds like the water is running in the drain."
Your bathroom vent is blocked. Snake out the lavatory vent from the roof.
"I have low pressure when I turn the water on"
Where? The entire house? A single faucet? Please furnish us with more details. Regards, Tom

It is mainly in our main bathroom, with the sink(low pressure) but mostly in the bathtub faucet and drain.. . val

Hi Val,
How old is your house and what type of pipes do you have? Copper? Galvanized? Also the brand namesa of the faucets affected and the type, one handle or two knobs? Regards, Tom
