"I needed an evaluation of my garbage disposal and Paul gave me his professional opinion. Turns out, we didn't need work done, but he was gracious and didn't charge for the visit. I also got his opinion on putting in a set-tub, and he advised me properly. I will absolutely call him again when I need plumbing of any kind done."
"These are the guys to call-- friendly, professional, and highly skilled. They helped me choose the new water heater, made sure the old cables were replaced with new ones (thanks fellas) and had the whole job done in 5 hours--including picking up the water heater. I have total confidence in Troy and his team and will be calling them back for 2 other plumbing jobs i need done."
"Roger, Chris and John of the install team did a great job. Arrived on time and worked tirelessly throughout the day. The crew kept me informed of each step of the demolition and install process and let me take pictures so I could send family and friends. My home is 40 years old so we had a plumbing issue. West Shore sent their top plumber to fix the problem. Sorry I don't remember his name. They finished in one day as promised, even though they had to work well into the evening because of the plumbing issue. I really love my new walk-in shower."
"Amazing service. Tyler redid 2 of my boyfriend’s bathroom. He took out the bathtub and installed a walk in shower because my boyfriend is 86 and has trouble getting out of bathtubs. He also added a barn door shower in both bathrooms., he put in shower seats and grab bars in both bathrooms. He even came back to fix some issues we were having. He is considerate, understanding and really easy to talk to. I highly recommend this company."
"Andre and Premium Plumbing & Boilers are legit. Superior service, reliable, dependable and quality work. Do yourself a favor and hire Andre. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️"
"Clay Hiles and CJ were AWESOME. They were very courteous and hard working. And they were very disciplined in cleaning up a plumbing clog that required some serious effort. Thank you fellas."
"Bordner was a wonderful company to complete and repair the mess left by an independent contractor who destroyed our small but, functional bath & shower. Bordner's install technician, Mike Williams is professional, polite, knowledgeable and a problem solver. He came into a horrible mess and took on each challenge with a smile. Thank you Mike Williams. The bathroom is beautiful!! Ask for Mije Williams."
"Optic Sewer Pipe LLC did a great job with our sewer camera inspection. They were very professional and explained everything they found clearly. The camera inspection gave us a much better understanding of the condition of our sewer line. Excellent service and highly recommended!"
"Breath easy did a great job on our radon mitigation! Would definitely recommend! They covered our crawl space with a vapor barrier and routed the radon pipe through our garage and roof to avoid the unsightly exterior pipe. Our radon levels went from 9 to 1.48 as a result. Thanks!"
When outside temperatures drop below 32 degrees Fahrenheit, your pipes are at risk of freezing. To prevent this, especially when you are away from home, set your thermostat to a range of 55 to 60 degrees to provide enough warmth. Maintaining this temperature can help you avoid costly water damage from burst pipes.
Many homeowners stress about cleaning before an emergency plumber arrives, but you’re far better off doing the following while you wait for your plumber to get to your home:
Shut the water off at your water main if you have a leak or a burst pipe
Avoid using any water fixtures in your home, including appliances
Clear a path to the problem area so that it’s easily accessible
Consider shutting your breaker if you’re concerned that the leak may affect your electrical system
While plumber’s tape is a great solution for many plumbing problems, there are some times when it’s not the right product for the job at hand.
You shouldn’t use plumber’s tape on pipe connections in any of the following scenarios:
When connecting PVC pipes
If the pipe has wide threads, as water can still leak through the space between the threads
If the pipe has very tight threads, as the tape would prevent a proper connection
If the pipe threads are damaged, which would prevent the tape from providing a watertight seal
If your predicament is similar to any of these, a licensed plumber can help you solve the problem.
Yes, there are ways to fix some pool pipe leaks without digging a trench. In some cases, pool professionals use a specific polymer-based solution to travel through a pipe and plug up a leak. In other cases, they can use specialized cameras to refit the damaged area with new piping. Not only are these approaches less intrusive to your home, but they also cut down on the cost of your pool repairs overall.
To install or move washer and dryer hookups, you will likely need a combination of professionals. A plumber can handle the water supply lines and drain pipes. If you have a gas dryer, a plumber certified for gas lines or an HVAC specialist will be needed to run the gas line. An electrician is required to install the correct electrical outlets. For simpler jobs, a local handyperson may suffice, while a contractor might be needed for tasks like drywall repair for the new vents.
