"Ryan was perfectly on-time and was a plumbing scholar and a gentleman. We had a simple drain replacement under a new sink. Going to Western saved me at least another day of trying to figure out proper parts and doing the install myself, and it also saved my wife's ears from hearing my salty language."
"I had a water heater replaced & they had to clear out the overflow piping cuz it was not draining. Turns out the outlet was outside buried in a planter, but they found it and fixed it. Great work, thank u."
"Thought I had a leak under the house from a kitchen drain. Turned out it was a leaky toilet. Fixed the same day! These guys are best. I finally found a plumber who I trust!"
"I contacted California Drains because my parent's home was completely backed up to the point where dirty water was coming out from the drains inside and outside their home. They promptly answered and booked me in the same day. They were able to contain the water from continuing to come out of the drains overnight and returned the next day first thing in the morning to get the problem fixed. Price was very reasonable, and the workers were very professional. Left everything clean and drains were completely cleared. It has been months since they came and there has not been an issue since. 10/10 will highly recommend to family and friends."
"Greg from Plumbing Geeks arrived to replace my leaking toilet. Took out the old toilet and installed the new one all within 30 min. Super efficient service and very polite and pleasant technicians. Iâ ve been looking for a great plumber and iâ m glad i found Plumbing Geeks."
"We chose encore builders among 5 bids for our backyard. We are very happy with the results. Oz spent time explaining what the detail endured and the whole crew was on time always. Really great guys. Brandon and Oz know customer service. They were available 24/7 to answer questions. I work late hours and was only able to talk via phone late evening- and Brandon always made himself available. He’s truly the best business owner I’ve ever met in my life. I even invited him over for a beer once the project was over that’s how much I connected with these guys. As far as the project goes- we did new pool plaster, artificial turf, a split drain, and new pool equipment. Everything looks great. The grass is nice and green and really makes the backyard look beautiful. Already recommended these guys to two friends and will be recommending to the whole neighbourhood. Easy five stars."
"Great overall experience . Had a need for emergency water main regulator repair ended up needing a replacement . Called explained my situation , was overall very impressed with the professionalism and honesty of this business . Highly recommend if you want professional fair and honest price ."
"He replaced 2 faulty valves and added a shutoff valve to control both. He came at the appointed time in the morning to look at the leaky broken valves and said he could come at 5PM to do the job. That would be fine if we lived there so we could see the job and pay him afterwards but he said we could mail the payment after we see the job the next day. We saw the repair job the next day and we were pleasantly pleased. He did a fantastic job and the new valves does not leak. Happy Happy."
"Requested a quote on Monday and (thanks to some unexpected rain) Mike and Jonathan gave me a quote the same morning and Jonathan and Jesus were able to start work the next day. All three guys were nice and communicative and really made me feel like they cared. I had my old one piece tub/shower removed, the shower head raised (no more back bends while rinsing my hair!), and a new four piece shower/tub installed with new hardware. The price they quoted ($3800) was well below other quotes I’d gotten (mid-4k) and the timeframe (2 days) was far shorter than the other companies who said it would take a week to complete the project. I cannot recommend Diplomat enough! I supplied my own tub/shower unit (purchased prior when another company just stopped responding mid-scheduling), and the relief I felt at the guys being able to do everything so quickly and with such care is hard to express. I’ve been trying to schedule with various plumbers for over a year now, so thank goodness for finding them! These guys are fantastic, their business card now lives on my fridge and I will 100% be going with them for any future plumbing jobs. I’m so beyond happy to have a working tub/shower AND for them to have gotten it done in less than two days!"
Storm Drain Installation questions, answered by experts
You can install a storm door on almost any door. Storm doors are designed to fit single exterior door frames. Whether a specific door fits into an existing frame depends on the frame's size and configuration. Patio and sliding doors are exceptions, as some aren’t designed to accommodate storm doors. A local door installer may be able to modify a frame to fit a storm door.
Each has its use, depending on the scenario. Security doors are primarily intended to keep people out of the home, while storm doors are used to protect the home from extreme weather. Both tend to be made from heavy-duty metal and may include glass panels to allow light to enter the home. Storm doors can feature mesh screens, just like screen doors, to allow for increased ventilation and to keep out pests. Security doors rarely, if ever, have mesh screens.
The difference between a right-hand and left-hand storm door is where the handle is located. When looking at the door from the outside of your home, a right-hand storm door will have the handle on the right-hand side, while a left-hand storm door will have the handle on the left. Your storm door handle will be on the same side as your front door handle.
Yes, most installation services include the removal and disposal of old doors, which can include storm doors. It is best to confirm the specifics with your provider or installer.
While storm doors should be tightly fitted, an airtight seal can actually trap moisture in the space. This can lead to condensation and icing on your door. Ideally, you will have a tight seal that still allows for proper air circulation and ventilation.
