Customers say: Quality work

"On Saturday, at about 4:00 in the afternoon, the toilet and shower in my master bathroom had overflowed so bad that it had seeped into my bedroom. (This had occurred simply after I ran the washing machine and dishwasher at the same time.) Suffice it to say, this caused a panic in me. Thankfully, I was able to ascertain the problem with the help from a friend who used to be a plumber. This helped me to realize that, though inconvenient, the problem at least wasn't some kind of emergency. With that, I immediately began reaching out to any plumbers I could find. The quotes that I was receiving were simply far too high for the job, especially because I know how to snake a clean line myself. In fact, I would have done so myself, were it not for my desire to have a camera down the line. (I had a clog about a year ago, so I was interested in seeing if there were any larger issues.) Of all of the plumbers that I got into contact withâ including one of my friend's plumber friendsâ Precise Plumbing had the best rate. They were willing to do the job at a rate that I could afford. Not only this, Malik, who had come out to do the job, worked with excellence. He was punctual, communicative, and competent. Not only this, he was also very personable. After he finished the job, he showed me the root problem that he picked up in the cameraâ which was actually roots. He explained long term solutions, but was in no ways pushy about it. I immediately put Malik's work to the test by running both the dishwasher and the washing machine again, which had caused the overflow in the beginning. You'll never guess what happened... nothing at allâ the problem was solved. Anyways, I write this review to say that Precise Plumbing is the way to go. I will definitely be telling my friends about them, but I hope the HomeAdvisor community could likewise benefit from such a competent company."

"We had a tub to tub and also a tub to walk-in shower remodel done by Domingo & Andy and Colton & Tyler, respectively. They were a delight to work with and very efficient in their work. We could not be more pleased with the results. We highly recommend Jacuzzi Bath Remodel of Portland. Thank you!!!"

"Said Abdullah was the worker on this follow up, did a thorough excellent job, on investigating possible openings for rats, and then addressed the problems (under kitchen sink, behind dishwasher). Outstanding work, highest ratings possible are earned. Huge relief after poor response by another co. & more thorough than earlier two from Saidâ  s co. Excellent!!!"

"I contacted the company. I got a call back from Manuel. I explained the problem. He came to the house within the hour and we agreed that the job would be completed today. We got a broken pipe in the garage fixed and a water pressure regulator installed. Then we tested the faucets and I was very happy about the water pressure and no leaks. There is a cost that was a little steep but we pay with emergencies. I recommend the company and also Manuel. Excellent!"

"I'm happy to say that over the course of four weeks, S&L Remodeling came into my house and did a superb job transforming my kitchen. I was very nervous to start on a nearly entire interior renovation of our new home. Raz proved to me that renovations can be pleasant and finished on time! When working with S&L you can honestly see the difference from how fast they respond to workmanship to communication. They were so thorough. Raz asked professional questions during the initial visit and I never felt rushed, even with all of my endless questions. I also got some nice quartz countertops which make a huge difference. At some point kitchen cabinets need to be remodeled and I am looking forward to future remodels with them!"

"The free estimate was conducted by phone with Matt.  He answered all of our questions fully, confirming that we did not need to install a larger unit and that all usual pipe and/or valves that needed to be replaced would be included in the quoted price.
The installer, Bobby, showed up within the stated time period, which was only two hours after the initial contact. He got right to work and was efficient, neat, and skilled.  He removed the old unit, took out some unnecessary pipes that were left from an old solar heating unit, and quickly installed the new unit.  He then demonstrated the thermostat operation, which is very different from the previous unit's, tested the operation, and cleaned up the area.
The price was reasonable. The unit has a good warranty (and looks nice ).  The Angie's List discount was applied with no problems.
My husband is a former plumber so he kept an eye on the whole install, and was pleased with the entire experience.

"I was expecting just a proposal to repair a sump pump under my house. I was pleasantly surprised that Nate would be able to do the repairs that very day. He finished the job, we tested the new system, paid the bill, and the job was done in a little over 3 hours. It rained hard a couple days later and the sump performed perfectly."

"We hired Bay Easy Construction for our bathroom re-model. We were really impressed with their quality of work. They do not try to cut corners and are really good at detailing. Their team was very professional. They started and completed the project on time and on budget. The crew cleaned up every evening and didn't leave any mess. Overall we are extremely happy with their work and would certainly recommend them."

"The project was done cleanly and quickly the next day after my posting to replace two shower Cartridges. There was confusion over the estimate (all estimates need to identify company). This might be good Angi upgrade. I may have assumed talking to wrong company. MasterFlush met me halfway on the estimate. One control was broken and therefore complicated. The other was quick and textbook. I was satisfied with the job done, next day service, and price."

Percolation Tests questions, answered by experts

There are products that still contain asbestos, but they were typically installed decades ago. Common places where you may still find asbestos-containing materials are in siding, wrapped around ductwork, in older appliances (i.e., stove and gravity furnaces), and in floors. Asbestos was primarily used as an insulator, so anywhere in an older home where you lose heat is where you will most likely find asbestos.

You can tell if old flooring has asbestos if thick black flooring adhesive is underneath the tiles. However, homeowners should not cut into linoleum floors to look for this adhesive. Instead, hiring a specialist to test the floors is the only safe way to determine if old flooring has asbestos.

Professional asbestos testers or environmental consultants are the best people to call to test for asbestos. An asbestos testing company specializes in collecting and analyzing samples and will be the most qualified to do the job for you. An environmental consultant may not specialize in handling asbestos, but should still have the knowledge and know-how to safely collect a sample and send it off for analysis.

Epoxying over asbestos tiles is generally considered a safe option when done correctly. Epoxy acts as a sealant, encapsulating the asbestos tiles and preventing the release of asbestos fibers into the air. The key is ensuring that the asbestos tiles are in good condition, firmly adhered to the substrate, and not damaged or deteriorating. This method is only appropriate for tiles that are undamaged and securely in place. If the asbestos tiles are already loose, damaged, or deteriorating, encapsulating them with epoxy may not be a sufficient solution, as it might not address the potential for ongoing asbestos exposure.

Most manufacturers stopped putting asbestos in linoleum before 1980 due to public concerns about its toxicity. However, the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) didn’t ban asbestos-containing products until 1989, and a comprehensive ban was not announced until 2024. This means that homes built after 1989 may still have asbestos in their flooring.
