"Adam the Plumber was competent, friendly, knowlegeable and efficient. Next Plumbing was very fast at responding to my inquiry and replacing my water heater IN ONE DAY. When the new water heater blew a fuse over night, Adam the Plumber came out the very next day (even if it did it cost me an extra $100, which I could debate if I wanted to). The cost of a plumber is notoriously expensive, but I commend Adam and Next Plumbing for sticking exactly to the estimate (less the $100 he next day). We are new to the area, now we have a go-to plumber if and when we need one. Responsive, honest, competent."

"Guest bathroom remodel: installation of new bathtub, new plumbing fixtures, and new porcelain tile on sides and back wall. Everything went extremely well from beginning to end. Owner, son, and plumber were professional, and always on time. My quote was reasonable and there were no hidden costs. I would highly recommended this company to anyone considering a remodel."

"Dominick arrived earlier than promised and immediately saw the problem. I was feeling pretty foolish for not thinking to prime
the pump. (I guess I believed when the pump was said to be self-priming). It never occurred to me. (Senior moment). He added water to the bowl and everything worked perfectly. Thank you. He gave me a break in the quoted price and I appreciated it very much.
American Leak Detection was recommended to me by another Angie's List provider and a check with Angie's List ratings confirmed to me that this was a good choice of provider.

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

If your drain doesn’t have metal crosshairs or crossbars, you should use a tub drain extractor. These tools create a grip on the drain so you can turn it using a 1/2-inch ratchet drive, drain key, or wrench. Your drain may not have crosshairs if it's old and broken.

Water freezes at 32 degrees Fahrenheit, but the actual temperature that can cause frozen pipes can vary. Generally, it takes 12 hours for pipes to freeze at 32 degrees Fahrenheit.

Uninsulated pipes can freeze if it’s 20 degrees Fahrenheit or colder for over three hours. If your pipes are insulated, it can take six hours or longer for pipes to freeze. Note that some pipe types freeze more often than PEX pipes. Copper pipes freeze more often because the copper conducts energy and loses heat quickly.

To install or move washer and dryer hookups, you will likely need a combination of professionals. A plumber can handle the water supply lines and drain pipes. If you have a gas dryer, a plumber certified for gas lines or an HVAC specialist will be needed to run the gas line. An electrician is required to install the correct electrical outlets. For simpler jobs, a local handyperson may suffice, while a contractor might be needed for tasks like drywall repair for the new vents.

Replacing cast iron pipes when they’ve reached the end of their life span is key to preventing leaks and clogs. Over time, cast iron pipes corrode and experience pipe scale, which thickens the inside of the walls and increases the chance of clogs while also decreasing water flow. As the material deteriorates, you could experience costly leaks that increase reparation expenses. 

Cast iron can last between 50 and 75 years, but it’s still a good idea to check for leaks as your pipes approach the 25-year mark, as pipes can already show signs of deterioration within the first three decades.

PEX pipes last up to 50 years on average, though they often last longer. This lifespan is comparable to that of galvanized steel, which ranges from 40 to 100 years. However, PEX piping is less likely to crack or break due to temperature changes. Due to that and the fact that it's easier to work with, many plumbers and DIYers are choosing PEX tubes over traditional metal piping.
