"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
After flushing the toilet, you should have about half a tank full of water. While the exact amount of water you’ll have will vary, you want to make sure you have enough to cover the bottom of the bowl and enough to sit above the P-trap drain. While low water in your toilet bowl can indicate a problem, too much water can also be cause for concern.
Water leak detection normally costs between $100 and $500, depending on the severity of the leak, its location, and the methods used for detection. Some water leak detection services will also vary in cost based on location. This also holds true for the cost of water damage restoration, as building material costs vary by location.
Plumbing leaks are usually not covered by homeowners insurance because the problems are avoidable with proper maintenance. In most cases, you’ll have to pay out of pocket for a fix. However, if the leak is a direct result of a natural disaster, like an earthquake that cracked a pipe or a house fire, your insurance may cover the repairs.
The most practical and common setup is a toilet that connects with the sewer line or a septic tank. However, it is possible to install a toilet without a sewer line, and this can be particularly helpful in basements with no or outdated plumbing. An increasingly popular option is an environmentally friendly composting toilet. Other waterless options include incinerating or dry flush toilets, which pull the waste into an airtight container.
A back pressure valve is a control valve used on production vessels, such as separators, treaters, and free water knockouts. The valve holds pressure until a set point is reached, and then releases upstream pressure to reset. Back pressure valves are not safety mechanisms. Instead, they are regulators designed to keep the fluid, gas, or liquid mixture in a system at a certain pressure level to prevent bursts and other incidents.
Meanwhile, a backflow preventer is a safety mechanism that kicks in when the pressure has already failed and contaminated water flows in the reverse direction. Most backflow preventers consist of two one-way valves, or check valves assembled together. This design only allows water to pass through in one direction but not the other.
