We just remodeled our house and replaced all the shower-heads, faucets, and water heater a few months ago. The irritating leaking started after we installed a water pressure reducing valve above the water heater. The shower-head always starts leaking for a few minutes after using hot water from other faucets such as sink or shower in other bathroom. A funny thing is that the leaking would stop if I flush the toilet. Due to the water pressure we had a lot of water problems before. I thought remodeled could fix all the problems, but……………Anyone can please provide some advices to fix the problem? Thanks a lot!!

Bathroom renovation needs help! Black vanity & cabinet, white wainscoting, brushed nickel hardware. What PaINT?
I’ve bought 3 color samples and can’t get it right! I have white wainscoting panels for the walls, and a black vanity and mirror. Should I go “celery green”, “harvest brown”, “teepee brown”, or “tropical pool blue”. I have a really small bathroom, 5X10 feet, so I don’t want to make the room seem too small, and am worried the paneling or a darker color will do that. However, the paneling will help with some pretty messed up drywall that would be even more difficult to completely cut out and patch. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you!

Give me your vision — black and white bathroom?
We’re extremely fortunate to have found a FREE double sink/vanity for our bathroom project. It’s going to save us close to $1,000 — wow!
But here is the thing… the counter and sinks are black marble, and the cabinets will be painted white. We’re purchasing new faucets. We’re not exactly fans of a super contemporary look, and we’re afraid the black and white will push us into that direction. So we’ll will need to soften up the rest of the space.
This is a COMPLETE bathroom renovation, including brand new flooring, lighting, toilet, and stand up shower. So let your imagination go wild! Can you help me dream up something spectacular? Examples/pictures would also help if you happen to know of any online, thanks!
