"I couldn’t be happier with the service I received from Paul! From start to finish, he was incredibly responsive, knowledgeable, and professional. He took the time to explain things clearly, was kind and respectful, and his pricing was very fair and reasonable. It’s not always easy to find someone you can truly trust, but I would absolutely hire him again—and again! I highly recommend him to anyone looking for a reliable, honest, and skilled plumber."

"Kyle installed our walk-in shower and did a fantastic job. It was a very long day for him due to an issue with our plumbing, but he remained positive and kept working methodically to complete the job. He was professional and pleasant during his many trips to and from our 3rd floor bathroom. And, we are very happy with the shower. It looks and works great."

"This was the second time we used H L Bowman for our plumbing needs and we have been impressed both times. Their plumbers are prompt, courteous, and friendly, in addition to being great at their craft. For this visit, I had a leak under a kitchen sink and did not realize that I needed to have the entire faucet replaced. The plumber recommended the closest plumbing supply store and waited while I selected the one I wanted. He efficiently did the replacement. Very happy with H L Bowman and would highly recommend them."

"I am waiting to get an answer back. I was told the $99 few would be waived if I proceeded with the repairs and the plumber did the repairs and was still charged the $99 fee. Need an answer if I am getting refunded. Was charged $145."

"Excellent service, clear detailed plans with diagram, and excellent updated sump pump system. I plan to have bilco doors put in my basement entrance by them soon. They are small company that cares about the customer."

"Response to my query was immediate. Husband and wife team, Gisele and Amir, came out to the house and wrote down all the things I needed done around the house. The jobs were many and varied and ranged from replacing basement windows, to creating backing for my lower kitchen Lazy Susans (so things don't fall off in oblivion), to staining a deck railing, to repainting basement and outside concrete walls, to reglazing and caulking windows, to creating a trap door for the plumbing, to sealing off/covering some dangling electrical wires, to patching a hole in an inside wall, and more. I got a full 4-page written quote ahead of time and was satisfied with it so I had them begin work right away. I left the house for a few days to go on a business trip and when I came back ALL of it was done and everything was cleaned up. There was only 1 thing that needed a bit more work and Amir came back and did this as soon as we could get it arranged. I liked their work ethic and professionalism so much that I have hired Gisele and her cleaning company to do my monthly housecleaning. We've had one cleaning so far and it was done well. Gisele speaks both English and Portuguese and will do translating when necessary for Amir and her cleaning staff. I am having fun learning some Portuguese words, too! They are delightful, easy to correspond with, up-to-date with technology (you can text and Venmo them), and I will continue to use their services."

"It has been 3 years since I installed a full perimeter water proofing system from CT Basement Systems. I waited 3 years to see how the system held up over time before offering this review. Bottom line, after years of having constant water in my basement, the system has done what it promised to do. My basement has remained dry for the most part. Immediately after having the system installed, we identified a few spots where there were penetrations through my basement wall where water was coming in and overshooting the perimeter system. All but one of these spots have been fixed. There remains one last trouble spot which is where the flue pipe for my furnace comes through the wall that water still seeps through but only under the most serious (hurricane type flooding) water conditions. It is not something that we would have expected the system to prevent as water follows the flue pipe past the system and onto the floor. We will be addressing it to finally have a dry basement once and for all. I understood immediately what the system would and would not fix. Of all the contractors I spoke with CT Basement Systems was the only one who was up front and honest about how their system would work, what it would fix and what it would not fix. This was one of the reasons I finally went with them, low pressure, up front honest sales. To all those other basement system companies sales people who tried to convince me my house was going to collapse if I put in any other system but theirs, take note. My house is still standing. The installation was messy and noisy (as promised) but it was all done in a day, and they left it neat and clean (expect for all the dust) and professional looking. After 3 years, not a single drop of water has made it past the perimeter drain channel. I did need to replace a float switch on one of the sump pumps (I have the triple safe pump) but that is the reason i went with the triple safe pump system. What I realized is that all these basement systems are the same idea. Create some type of channel to create a path for the water to drain to a collection point. It then gets pumped out. All of these systems from all the different companies are the same idea and all try to convince you that theirs is unique and better. I personally feel they are all the same as they all work. What is critical is the pump system. It was basement system's triple safe pump concept more than anything that convinced me to go with them. With all the others, a single pump failure would have caused a flood. So read their informative book carefully and listen to their sales people and ask questions. So long as you understand what the system will and will not do I don't think you will be disappointed."

"Jonathan was a lifesaver. The well circuit breaker had flipped earlier that morning. I called plumber because there was no water. The series of evenst that followed were horriffic. Plumber had flipped the well switch back, turned on the water and left. Neighbors called to tell me te basement windows were pumping out smoke. The fire deprtment came and shut everything down. I contacted Johnathan as a well specialist. That he is. He troublshooted the problem. The well switched tripped. The pump was burned out, fire, pressure valve and fittings melted. He replaced the hot water heater, all fittings and new pressure pump installed. I give Jonathan R. Habacker Pumbing, LLC the highest ratings possible. He also pointed out other future issues. I will be having him install new hot water heater, well serviced and/or replacement. HE is my only contact for well and plumbing issues. Make him yours. With much respect for quality work. Carol A. Whelan"

Plumbing FAQs, answered by experts

Silicone-based caulk is known for its waterproofing qualities, so it’s the best option for any bathroom area. While it’s often more expensive, it will provide a better, longer-lasting seal than acrylic or latex caulk. Use it along the base of the toilet to prevent leaks and keep the area clean and protected.

If you've discovered a rather frightening buildup of brown and black gunk below your shower cover, you're not alone. The smelly sludge is often a collection of mildew and biofilm. Biofilm comes from the breakdown of soap scum, hair, skin cells, and bacteria that collects during shower time. It's quite common in a humid space and relatively easy to clean with a gentle DIY cleaning solution such as baking soda and vinegar.

Technically, yes, you can put a shower on a Roman tub, but it's not common. The vast majority of Roman tubs are standalone models. Adding a shower would involve installing a ceiling-mounted curtain rod or a custom glass enclosure, as well as redoing the plumbing, making it neither easy nor budget-friendly.

That pesky faucet leak can have a few different causes, most of which are standard wear and tear that occurs over time, but that doesn’t make it any less annoying, especially when the energy bill hits:

  • Old washer: A deteriorated washer or gasket is the most common cause of a leak. Luckily, it’s easy and affordable to fix.

  • Old packing nut: There’s a chance the packing nut (located beneath the handle) is loose and simply needs tightening, or it has been worn down, stripped, and needs to be replaced.

  • Freezing temperatures: The water sitting in your spigot over winter can freeze, expand, and lead to damage and leaks.

  • High water pressure: High water pressure is hard on pipes over time and can cause cracks and leaks, too.

Yes, frozen pipes can prevent a toilet from working correctly. If the pipes are frozen, water cannot flow, which means your toilet tank won't be able to refill after a flush. This will prevent the toilet from flushing again. Depending on which lines are frozen, the ice can also block the drain pipe, preventing water from flushing away.

As a temporary workaround, you can manually add water to the tank for each flush. To clear a frozen drain pipe, you can try filling the toilet bowl or tank with warm water and flushing to help thaw the ice. However, the best long-term solution is to unfreeze the pipes to get your toilet back in working order.
