"Yes, though there were some bumps and burps along the way. He was the only plumber to respond to my emergency leak calls, though he lives in the next county. There was some trouble getting parts in my small town and I was without water for several days. Anyway, I now have running water again! I never thought I would ever look forward so much to doing laundry. 🙂"
"There were very professional. They completed the job in a day. Arnoldo and his team, Julio and Mauricio worked efficiently and cleaned up the drywall and old tub"
"Dillion did a beautiful job on two bathrooms and a kitchen remodel. We could not of asked for a better contractor so easy to work with and listened to our requests and made it happen."
"This is the second shower that Michael Williams has done for us and is very easy to work with and displays professionalism in all he does. His attention to detail is outstanding with a desire to insure that we are aware of the choices for placement of shelves and such to make the final product work best for us. Mike went the extra mile to insure that everything went well and suggested how we could complete the surrounding work that results in a great and beautiful remolded bathroom. We were happy with the support for the Bordner team in meeting and solving any concerns we may have had. Mike is a great example of what you would hope for in a person that comes into your home. He takes care to work with you and respects your home and does a great job of leaving the work area clean. Thank again Mike for a job well done. We would look forward to having you in our home again for other projects."
"Matt and Tyson were awesome. On time, professional, respectful of property, solved tricky sump pump install. Knew codes. Efficient, clean, good electronic system for appointments, reminders, etc."
"Very happy with my new Liberation walkin tub.I also love the special toilet. They also installed a sink/vanity for me. I recommend them if you want quality work."
"A step n'shower was installed in one 12 hour day. Installers were professional, worked to remove tub and then install an excellent step-in shower. Safety features were a special issue for me at age 82. When a question arose then following day, the installers returned that very day and checked on their work. The slight problem was not due to their installment and they advised me as to the next step. I am thoroughly satisfied."
"The whole team at MyBath Colorado did a fantastic job from the initial quote, project management, and final install. They were all professional and knowledgeable. Scott did the install and did a fantastic job communicating, installing, to cleanup. We needed and ADA compliant bathroom for a family member that is moving in. They exceeded my expectations. I would highly recommend them."
"Eric and James did a fantastic job educating me on everything about my bathroom shower remodel. They did everything they can to help make this affordable."
"We have yearly maintenance inspections done on our crawlspace encapsulation, sump pumps, dehumidifier, and on our driveway drainage grate. GROUNDWORKS has been our "one-stop go to" company for our home. Technician JR WALZ is a very articulate professional that provides courteous attention to detail service. JR explained every inspection step & maintenance procedure he was doing. He checked our cement walkway & steps for any future hazards. The GROUNDWORKS projects & service checkups have increased our home value to ourselves and frankly to any future home buyers (in my honest opinion). JR WALZ provided us with stellar written service notes to add to our house maintenance history folder. He welcomed us to call him personally for any concerns or issues we may have. We appreciated the fact that he included my wife during his service overview explanations too. Lastly, JR WALZ proactively communicated by text & phone prior to the appointment. EXCELLENT CUSTOMER SERVICE & WORK ETHICS!"
Most of the time, homeowners are responsible for replacing a main water shut-off valve. This is because the property owner also owns the water service line from the shut-off valve near their property line to their house. That means they must maintain, repair, or replace it when needed.
There are nearly as many handles for your outdoor faucet as there are for your indoor faucets. Just a few include:

Turn hose bibb handle: about $15
Decorative handle: range from $15 to over $100
A shower diverter and a shower valve serve different functions, though some modern models combine them into a single unit. A shower diverter is a specific type of valve that directs the flow of water between different fixtures, such as from a tub spout to a showerhead or handheld sprayer. In contrast, a shower valve (often called a mixing valve) controls the water temperature and turns the shower on and off. A shower system can have both a diverter valve and a mixing valve to manage its functions.
Problems with a damaged handle or valve cartridge can result in a leaking faucet that won’t turn off completely. The faucet may also be rusty or corroded, which can prevent the faucet from turning the water off all the way. A leaky faucet can cause issues beyond the annoying dripping sound. It also wastes water and can be an indication that something else is wrong with the system, so fix a leaky bathtub faucet as soon as possible.
To measure pipe size, you can use a ruler, a soft tape measure, or a caliper. You can find a special pipe caliper that has iron or copper pipe sizes already marked. Rulers work if the end of the pipe is exposed. If your pipe is still attached to the plumbing, you’ll need to go for a soft tape measure or caliper.
