"A two-day project to convert tub to walk-in shower went smoothly. Jake, Josh and Brian were thorough in their site preparation and detail-oriented in the installation. It was a beautiful job and we appreciated the personal approach of the company: we didn't feel like ours was just one of an assembly-line make-overs."

"Tony was wonderful. I contracted with him in to finish a bathroom. The prior contractor made many majoristakrs with the drainage. Tony had to fix several major plumbing mistakes. He was up front, clear on the issues and what had to be done to correct the problems. Wonderful work and I will be contracting with him in the future."

"The workmen performed their work efficiently, professionally and with the utmost skill.  While installing a sliding glass door, an area was found that need to be corrected.  In my opinion they performed above and beyond to make sure our new sliding glass door would work properly, and not leak.  We also had our porch re-screened along with a new porch door.  I love the look of the porch.  A new folding attic 
staircase was also installed, and my husband is very satisfied."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

To create a siphon break and remove any chance of dirty sink water or water that backs up into the sink from getting into your dishwasher, your dishwasher drain hose needs to have a high loop or an air gap device as part of its installation. All building codes require at least a high loop. In many places, it’s necessary to install an air gap device to meet the code.

Sometimes a leaky faucet is simply the fault of a washer gone bad. Follow these steps to change the washer:

  • Shut off the water to the faucet

  • Remove the screw and handle

  • Remove the packing nut and washers

  • Clean and replace washers 

  • Reinstall the packing nut and handle

There’s no way around it—a burst pipe is often a homeowner’s worst nightmare, and the situation can range from semi-serious to dire. If you don’t catch the leak, it can lead to thousands of dollars worth of water damage.

At best, you’ll notice a burst pipe quickly, turn off your water supply, and use a wet vacuum to clean up minor flooding. A plumber can repair the pipe, and you won’t be left with a major bill. At worst, severe water damage can collapse floors, ceilings, walls, and foundations, sometimes leading to major repairs and renovations.

It is generally not recommended to pour hot or boiling water down a drain to unfreeze pipes due to significant risks. In some cases, the sudden temperature change can cause more ice buildup or produce steam, which increases pressure and could cause the pipe to burst, leading to costly damage and potential burn injuries. While hot water might help with a partially frozen drainpipe, it is unlikely to thaw a completely blocked water pipe further down the system. Additionally, boiling water can damage plastic pipes over time. Safer and more effective methods include using a space heater near the frozen section or applying hot towels directly to the pipe.

Yes, a skilled plumber can thaw frozen pipes, and it is recommended to hire a professional rather than attempting a DIY fix. A plumber will typically start by investigating your plumbing to locate the frozen areas. They then use professional equipment, such as a heat gun, to safely thaw the affected pipes. If a pipe has already burst or developed leaks, the plumber can make the necessary repairs. For homes with frequently frozen pipes, a plumber can also suggest preventative measures like improving pipe insulation or rerouting lines away from areas prone to freezing.
