"Thank you to Julio Valle from John Padilla Plumbing, Inc. After I had a lukewarm shower, I called Padilla Plumbing based on their 5 star reviews on various platforms. They had an opening the next afternoon. The gentleman on the phone gave me an estimate for replacing the water heater if that was necessary & told me their service charge would go toward any repair that they did for me. The next day, a gentleman called to say the plumber was running late & would miss the time window. What would I like to do? I opted to have the plumber come the same day if he could do it in the daylight. Julio arrived about 20 minutes later! Yay!! Julio was very professional & courteous. He tested the in-house faucets (upstairs & down) for water temperature. Then we went down to the water heater in the garage. He adjusted the temp on one of the heating elements as it was much lower than the other one. Again, he tested water temps upstairs & the water was already warmer!! This seems to be a well-run, responsive plumbing company that I will call again when needed. Highly recommend."

"We were so happy about the $53 drain cleaning we decided to try them & support female owned businesses, they cleared the drain & left. We had to have them come out the next day for the same issue, we were not charged but Brian came out with camera looked and stated they can dig and clean it out to the drop where it goes into the city line and all the sudden it was over $3,000 but there would be a $95.00 senior discount. They came out again the following day and dug up the yard, they explained that they were wrong about where the city line was, but removed a portion with roots inside but the outside was intact, they told us the camera showed that another pipe had collapsed and needed a reline for another $7,000 and would come back in 2 days for that. The next day we called are regular plumber, who charges more than $53 (remember you get what you pay for) he cleared the roots to the city line & showed my husband the pipe while he was looking at and it was intact with no sign of collapse. Anderson Plumbing told me it would cost $10,000 to fix an issue that my regular plumber charged me $250 to fix!!! Obviously we canceled the reline. Really a bait & switch! On the positive side the crew that did the digging & filling were very professional. By the way we did not get the senior discount we told we would get from Brian. Very disappointed, will not look for a cheaper drain clean when I have a great plumber already."

Plumbing Handymen questions, answered by experts

The best types of piping for underground main water lines are PVC and PEX pipes because of their ability to be buried and withstand high levels of water pressure. PVC and PEX pipes are resistant to rusting and corrosion, which makes them ideal for transporting water. Copper is another efficient type of pipe for underground water lines because of their resistance to rusting and leakage. Again, copper pipes are on the higher end of the price range.

Installing a gas line can be extremely time-consuming and dangerous, so you will want to hire a seasoned professional. Perform a thorough search ahead of time to find a reputable and reliable plumber. Pay special attention to licensing and insurance as you go about choosing the best contractor for your needs.

It depends on your homeowners insurance policy. If you're wondering what to do if a pipe bursts, contact your homeowner's insurance right after calling a plumber. Accidental water damage caused by a sudden and unexpected incident is typically covered.

In addition to covering replacement and repair costs directly related to the affected plumbing, your policy may cover repairs or replacements of drywall, wood flooring, or damaged objects in your home. Consult your insurance company to see what's covered under your plan. And remember, plumbing service contracts may provide discounts for a major repair like this.

How long it takes to install a kitchen faucet depends on the complexity of the installation. For example, replacing a faulty faucet with a working version of the same type may only take an hour or two for an experienced DIYer to complete. 

However, if your plumbing system needs modifications, then it may take seven or eight hours for you or a pro to prep and protect the work area, remove the old faucet, and install a new faucet and supply lines.

Turn on the water to each faucet and check the area for water trickling out from anyplace but the spout. Next, shut off the water and see if there’s any residue which could indicate a worn down rubber seal. If you find any water, you can replace the rubber seal or have a plumber do it for you.
