"Finally! A plumber that shows up on time and does efficient and neat work. Also doesn't aggressively try to upsell you on other services. One more thing, we supplied the faucet to be installed and there was no attempt to charge us for the lost commission the company did not get on the sale for the faucet. In other words, just what you should expect from a plumber."
"EDI Remodeling remodeled our kitchen, opened a wall between the kitchen and our living room, installed new modern led lights both in kitchen and living room and installed custom cabinets that look beautiful. The work is really impressive and we will recommend anyone who is looking to do a kitchen remodel to work with this company."
"Stan showed up within 1 hour of our call. He located the break in the main and proceeded to repair it on the spot. He also added a couple of valves and access boxes to ensure that any future problems can be dealt with easily. Great job!"
"They did come out and do the work. Its been a year since I had them out I know I spent more, I had them do more work. They actually clean out and did a couple of faucets for me and they ended up breaking a counter top. And they had quite a time getting it resolved. They didn't want to pay for the, they broke a sink that's what they broke. The bathroom had two matching sinks and they couldn't match the sink and they didn't want to pay for two of them, they just wanted to do one and put an un matching sink in there. So I ended up paying for one sink, they paid for another and then they installed the faucets but it was not a great experience with Benjamin Franklin Plumbing."
"SGK came out and replaced 4 of our windows earlier this year. The team was professional and helpful from the office staff down to the installers. We love our new windows and we won't hesitate to use SGK again for future projects."
"We recently had Mega Power Electric Inc install a solar system and panels. The President and provided excellent communication all the way through the process. He even met with us after installation to explain the almost incomprehensible PG&E bill. Although not the least expensive bid, his was competitive and I felt he was as interested in educating me about solar and the various types of panels and inverter systems as he was in selling a system. He demonstrated how the array of panels would meet our energy needs and as opposed to some of the other companies, wasn't selling us more than we needed. We are very satisfied with our solar system and I highly recommended Mega Power Electric Inc."
"OVERALL IMPRESSION. Shaun and his crew did an excellent job. I would not hesitate to hire them again. PROFESSIONALISM. Each day of the job, the crew showed up on time, prepped the work area by putting down drop cloths, plastic, etc. At the end of the day, even when they were coming back first thing the next morning, they picked up all their drop cloths, straightened out the work area, and even vacuumed the hallway. Shaun did much of the work himself and even when he wasn't he came by the job almost every day. His professionalism started before the job. He came by to talk to me about what we wanted done one afternoon and I had a written estimate in my email inbox that evening. When we needed some help making decisions about fixtures and finishes, Shaun met us at a local design center and spent at least an hour with us talking about ideas (this is before we had committed to the job). TIMELINE. With any contractor, you expect to have to work out a time window that works for both you and any other job the contractor has going. Shaun had a 2-week window open at the end of October. We advised him that we had a big party planned for the end of the month and didn't want to start the job unless he could definitely be done by then. He said it shouldn't be a problem and, sure enough, the job took even less time than we expected. QUALITY OF WORK. Of course, ultimately the proof is in the pudding and I must say that the new bathroom looks great! As I look at everything more closely, I keep finding little touches that I appreciate. For example, when they replaced the floor tile with stone, they ran a narrow strip of stone up onto the toe-kick of the vanity. They could have just as easily butted the floor stone up against the toe-kick and left it at that (you wouldn't even see if if you didn't look for it), but it's a nice detail that looks great and will add to the life of the floor and the vanity."
For safety when installing a vanity, attaching the vanity to the wall is ideal to prevent it from moving. Typically, sinks must be 4 inches away from bathtubs. Also, most states require that you have 21 inches in front of a sink, but the National Kitchen and Bath Association (NKBA) recommends 30 inches for more comfort.
While unplugging your garbage disposal and plugging it back in may help, most units have an actual reset button, a bright red switch found on the underside of your unit. If your garbage disposal needs resetting, you may notice this button sticking out about a quarter of an inch from the surface of the unit, with which it’s usually flush. Simply depress this reset button to reset the unit, and then test to ensure it’s working about 10 minutes later.
The main cause of bathroom leaks is seals and connectors that loosen or deteriorate over time, causing leaks to develop. It's important to stay on top of your bathroom materials, as toilets, showers, and sinks all have different lifespans. Toilets and faucets last between 10 and 15 years on average with regular maintenance, but different parts may have shorter lifespans than others.
Wall-mounted faucets are installed 6 to 8 inches above the countertop. The height you choose is very significant because the wrong choice will lead to a faucet that splashes water everywhere. Your installer should have a good recommendation based on your sink type, size, and shape. A good installer will ensure the sink is comfortable and splash-free.
Porcelain and enamel sinks have very similar appearances, but they aren’t the same. Porcelain is a ceramic made from natural clay, while enamel is a strong powder that’s glazed over a metal sink. Use a magnet to determine whether you have an enamel or porcelain sink. If a strong magnet sticks to the sink, it’s likely enamel. If it doesn’t, you probably have a porcelain sink. You can also use the model number on the sink (often found on the underside of the bowl) or information from the manufacturer to determine the material.
