"It was a great experience. Preston was very personable and explained everything that needed to be done once he assessed the problems. He proceeded to fix the problem.(back up between the toilet and shower) with minimal ease and in a timely manner. I would definitely hire him again to do any other plumbing jobs in the house that needed to be done."
"Joe and his team were precise with their estimate of the problem. They arrived on time and were ready to go. Had all the materials needed to do the job and knocked it out within a matter of hours. When I asked about an additional service for the refrigerator water line, they jumped right on it. To have my well pipe raised, a new whole house filter system installed and the refrigerator completed, was under $1,400.00 and the systems have worked like a champ ever since."
"Rich, the technician at Budget Dry, did an excellent job installing my new sump pump. He was knowledgeable and he communicated well. I would recommend Budget Dry."
"Quick and easy replacement/installment. The work was quick, easy and affordable, not to mention the service was outstanding. 10/10 would recommend this company to anyone looking for quick and easy home repair work. ð «¶ð »"
"Todd did a great job. He responded very quickly and his experience and knowledge were evident not only in his work but in his suggestions. I would definitely recommend him to anyone needing a plumber."

"Great company! They came out when they said they were going to, the work was carried out smoothly and without issues. The installer was very polite and conscientious. The pricing was not inexpensive, but it rarely is for a licensed, bonded, insured company using professional grade materials (not the cheap big box store cabling). These guys did the work right and when you re dealing with something as dangerous as natural gas you can t afford a company that makes mistakes. All in all, my gas heater works wonders and I m very pleased with the work. For future work, they ll be on my short list of contractors to call. Thanks TMS!"
"Good customer service from the delightful sales person (senior project specialist) to the project manager who have us confidence, to the friendly hard working crew (all brothers and sisters from Hondoras!) Our roof is beautiful. Only 2 regrets. First, that I can not see the new acquisition every day without going outside to look at it. And second, that no one brought donuts. ;)"
Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts
While PEX can't melt, high temperatures can alter its performance. The maximum heat that PEX can safely be exposed to is 180 degrees Fahrenheit. When PEX is exposed to high temperatures for extended periods of time, it may fail. While copper can withstand hot temperatures better than PEX, copper pipes freeze more easily compared to PEX.
You can pour hot water down your gutter drain to melt ice and keep ice dams from forming. If the problems persist, consider investing in heat cables to run in your gutters. Heat cables can adjust based on the surrounding temperature to keep ice thawed.
The time it takes to fix a burst pipe depends on the location and severity of the problem. A minor burst can be cleared up in a day. But if more than one pipe burst or cracked, or the source of the burst and leak is more complex, it can take a week or longer for a licensed local plumber to fix it.
It is safe to flush the toilet even if the pipes are frozen, and this may even help clear out the pipes. But if the supply line is frozen, the toilet won’t refill itself until it’s thawed out. You can still flush by pouring water into the tank to refill it.
No, you should not see water in a sewer cleanout. If you do, it could indicate that you have a block or leak in your main sewer line—which can cause sewage to back up inside your home and potentially flood your yard. Your best bet is to call a local sewer cleaner if you notice any water or sewage around your cleanout.
