Don't mean to sound neg. but as fast as the contractors put them up & to me when I look around my own house it looks like they don't use top quality materials. They seem to build them just so they last long enough for the warranty to run out, I know some people might read this & think I'm crazy but I'm sure most people don't even know how to change a furnace filter. It's a vendors paradise in TV. Sorry to sound neg. but I do know a little bit about building materials & everyone that have anything to do with any kind of maintenance, selling or vendor are charging to much to get anything done. I've already rebuilt both of my toilets, everything in both bathroom. (Closets) That's the tank that sits on the back of the toilet stool & I'm sure I did it for 1/4 the price that some maintenance guy could of done it for. As far as the valve breaking, yea I can believe it & I bet whoever put the plumbing in didn't replace it for nothing. These homes should be maintenance free for 10 yrs. min.
