"Ruben replaced our residential water heater because, after 20 years, the tank was leaking. I first called another plumber who charged $50 for a house call so he could tell me I needed a new WH. Then he quoted a replacement cost I couldn't swallow, so I started calling around. When I spoke to Ruben, he asked that I send a couple of pix of the WH and its location and quoted the job over the phone. He was on time, more affordable by almost 30% and he cleaned up afterwards . . . I couldn't have asked for anything more. Keep up the good work, Ruben."

"Edgar helped us with our new bathroom conversion on the second floor. It was a big project. The quality of his work is impeccable. Zero issues. His integrity and work ethics are second to none. He gets the job done without us having to oversee all day. He is also great at keeping us updated with the job progress and advising us on issues. If you are looking for a great and honest plumber, Edgar is it. I would hire him without reservation."

"I had a leak in the cold water faucet, and tried to fix it myself. I replaced the fixture but the leak didn't stop completely. Since the plumbing in my house is 30 yrs.old and the leak kept moving every time I tightened it, I decided to call a pro. The plumber said I was on the right track but didn't use enough plumber's putty. He replaced both faucets at my request. Problem solved.

"Quick response and knowledgeable. I need the wax gasket on my toilet replaced and they were quick to respond and do the repair at a very reasonable price. They ended up replacing the water valve on the toilet also as it wouldn't shut off due to all the silt in the lines. Still super happy with their service and friendliness. Would definitely recommend them!"

Affordable Plumbers FAQs, answered by experts

While some chemical drain cleaners with hydrochloric acid can dissolve hair, this method is not recommended as it can also destroy your plumbing pipes. A common DIY alternative is using baking soda and vinegar, which can help break down the clog but will not actually dissolve the hair. The best and safest method for clearing a hair clog is to remove it manually. You can use a drain snake, a straightened wire hanger with pliers to fish out the clog, or have a plumber use a professional auger for more severe blockages.

The toilet flange anchors to the subfloor, usually with wood screws or cement screws, but most of it should sit above floor level at full height. When a flange is flush with the subfloor or below it, it can lead to the creation of leak paths.

The only downsides to hiring a master plumber is that they charge a higher hourly rate than a less experienced plumber. Plus, master plumbers likely have less availability, given the demand for highly experienced professionals. The benefits far outweigh the cons, though. Upsides include the following:

  • More professional repair

  • More experience fixing your specific issue

  • Recourse if something goes wrong

  • Warranty for the work (in some cases)

  • Some insulation from lawsuits if the plumber gets injured on your property

If your toilet is still leaking after replacing the toilet flapper, then you may not have installed the toilet flapper correctly. Double-check that you have placed the flapper over the overflow tube correctly, and check the flapper chain is at the right length. If your toilet is still leaking, then you may have another problem on hand. For example, you may need to replace the toilet wax ring or replace the toilet fill valve if your toilet is wobbly and leaking from around the base.

Shut-off valves, like any other piece of metal hardware, can corrode, age, get worn down, and eventually break or rust into place. Occasionally spray your shut-off valve with WD-40 to stall it from rusting. If it really gets stuck, a wrench and WD-40 will usually do the trick, but you will need to call a plumber if it’s completely unmovable.
