"Both were very friendly and attentive. Got right to work after explaining to me what was going on within the pipes. Showed me pictures. After the work was done, they made sure the drains were draining good. Will definitely refer them to anyone in need of a plumber."

"I’ve had plenty of experience with contractors, and much of that experience was less than satisfactory. It was an absolute pleasure to have Frank from Manasota plumbing handle our project. Manasota will be my only plumber going forward. And will be my first choice referral to anyone!"

"This was the second company that I used. The first one, Sherlock leak detection did not find the leak but still charged me $350 to look. I called American Leak Detection after giving up on Sherlock. American was so much more professional. They found a leak at the pool light and fixed it.

"Todd Steiner of VT Plumbing quickly provided an estimate. I hired him, next day he completed installation of my garbage disposal. He worked fast and efficient. The garbage disposal works great. He thoroughly cleaned and vacuumed the area, a professional touch. I will hire him again, and highly recommend both Todd Steiner and VT Plumbing."

Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts

You definitely can over-tighten toilet tank bolts. Unlike some other materials, porcelain can’t bend or flex, so when you over-tighten a screw into it, it could break against the added pressure. Only tighten them as much as needed to keep them in place and firm; any more and you could risk breaking the porcelain.

A two-way cleanout can help if there’s already a clog, but the best strategy to prevent one is by not rinsing grease, oil, or fat down your drains, not flushing or rinsing coffee grounds or egg shells down your drains, flushing only human waste and toilet paper (so no diapers, period products, bathroom wipes, or paper towels), and using drain guards on all of your drains.

To unclog a plumbing vent, you first need to locate it. Look at your home's roofline. The plumbing vent will be a vertical pipe sticking straight up from the roof. Since this pipe runs all the way to the main drain underneath your house, you should also be able to find it in the attic.

A sewage ejector pump is necessary if you have any plumbing fixtures, such as a bathroom, laundry room, or sink, located below the level of your home's main sewer line. Standard plumbing relies on gravity to move wastewater and solid waste to the municipal sewer or septic tank. However, for fixtures located below grade (e.g., in a basement), gravity is not sufficient.

The purpose of a sewage ejector pump is to actively pump this wastewater and solid waste upward into the main sewer line. Without an ejector pump in this situation, wastewater would have no way to exit and would eventually back up, causing a sewage overflow or flooding in your basement. If all of your home's plumbing is on the main floor or higher, gravity can handle the drainage, and an ejector pump is not needed.

It’s usually best to hire a certified master plumber to perform plumbing work in your home. Certified plumbers will be able to tackle most plumbing jobs and will have experience with drainage problems, water supply pipes, and appliances. This type of plumber is the most expensive, but the price is well worth it. You could opt for a journeyperson or an apprentice, which will be more affordable, but the reduced experience means your repair may not be as high-quality. Avoid hiring a handyperson for plumbing work unless you’re dealing with a simple issue, like a clog or a leaky faucet.
