"Paul was absolutely fantastic. I had a main sewer line clog backing up into my basement. Paul came out, knew exactly where to access the main line, and cleared the blockage quickly with professional equipment. He pulled out a ton of buildup and completely fixed the issue the right way — not just a temporary patch. On top of that, he was honest, explained everything clearly, and saved me over $400 compared to other plumbing companies told me I would’ve had to pay. Super knowledgeable, efficient, and professional. No upselling, no nonsense — just solid work. If you need a plumber who actually gets the job done, Paul is your guy. Highly recommend and will definitely call him again."

"Andrew was great on time and personable. He knew what he was doing and even showed me the issues. He fixed what he was able to and advised me on what I need to do next since the next issue was not the plumbing. When I was urgently looking for someone to come fix the leak I had, everyone else was unable to make it the day of. Andrew made it in an hour from speaking with him. I would recommend his services to anyone needing a plumber."

"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."

"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."

"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."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Yes, you should always call a plumber to replace a pipe that you fixed with a temporary solution. Some temporary pipe leak solutions like pipe leak clamps can last for years and prevent further damage to your home, but eventually, they will fail, at which point you could be looking at more significant water damage and mold growth. Even if you suspect that your temporary solution will last a long time, always call a plumber for a permanent fix. Temporary solutions should be for minimizing damage and avoiding added charges for emergency plumbing services.

No, a larger well pressure tank will not increase or improve water pressure on its own. The pressure control on the well pump is what determines the water pressure in your home. However, a larger tank does offer other benefits. It can hold more water, allowing you to run it for longer before the pump needs to turn on. Because the pump cycles on and off less frequently, there is less stress and wear on the well system. This can lead to a longer lifespan for the pump and tank, and you may experience fewer pump-related issues that could affect your water pressure in the long run.

If you want to increase your water pressure, you can try one of the following solutions:

• Adjust the tank’s pressure settings to a higher PSI (pounds per square inch).

• Replace your current pump with one that has a higher flow rate (GPM).

• Install a water pressure booster pump in your plumbing system.

• For pressure fluctuations, consider replacing your current setup with a constant pressure system.

Pipefitting is a more specialized profession, and pipefitters work with complex systems and low- and high-pressure pipes, so it can be considered harder than plumbing. Though each profession comes with its challenges, the nature of pipefitting requires working with heavier materials in fast-paced and dangerous environments, which can be more challenging than working on residential and commercial plumbing systems.

Yes, copper pipes freeze at temperatures of 20 degrees Fahrenheit or lower. In fact, copper pipes are more likely to freeze than other piping types since they conduct energy and lose heat quickly. They’re also more difficult to insulate, since insulation may make it difficult for heat to reach the pipes during sudden surges of cold weather.

Plumbers start out at the apprentice level and then move up through the different levels of plumbers over their careers. After being an apprentice, plumbers move to journey-level and finally, plumbers who have met certain requirements for education and experience move up to master plumber. Most plumbers working on your home’s plumbing will be journey-level plumbers.
