"I am a pastor, and I live in a parsonage. If you know anything about a parsonage, you know that every few years it gets new tenants and a lot of things get kind of pushed to the side or to be mentioned to the owners of the building, which is the church I serve. so I realize that we had some serious Tuckpointing issues with our front flower bed. I was familiar with Tuckpointing because the church that I was secretary of many many years ago used Tuck pointers to fix the brick on the church to repair the cracks and things. I got on Google , and found a site that looked safe filled in the information and then Scott from Groundworks called me set up the appointment and came yesterday to look at our brick. It turns out that the brick of the house is fine and doesn’t need any repair and the brick of the flower bed just needs to be taken down and destroyed because it’s not fixable . It would be fixable if we spent a whole lot of money we can’t afford. what I really appreciate is from the beginning. I think Scott realized that he probably wasn’t going to get any business from us, and yet he treated the job as if he was going to make the most money. He was efficient. He was accurate. He was kind. If I ever need tuck pointing, I will definitely call groundwork and I will ask for Scott if he’s available. This is not just Tishomingo area, they serve all over Oklahoma and possibly beyond I don’t know."

"They couldn't deliver, they specified items that after months of waiting, they could never deliver. In the mean time, they directed me to have plumbing rough and done, and then when they couldn't deliver the system for which the plumbing was done, I now have to spend several thousand dollars having the plumbing redone for another system that I found out on my own. The design was okay, some of their ideas were spot on, some of them were way off but ultimately they just couldn't deliver after holding $10,000 of my money for over 2 months. I am currently in a dispute with them with American Express because they still haven't credited me back the money I paid them to purchase things that they never delivered."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Most toilets have a 12-inch rough-in or hole, but some have 10- or 14-inch holes, which means that not all toilets fit all setups. Knowing how to measure the rough-in is essential, so you purchase a toilet that fits the existing drain hole. It can be costly to have the rough-in moved, and most stores don’t accept toilet returns.

A bit of water in the bowl can help unclog a toilet, especially if you're using a plunger. However, if the bowl is full to the brim, you'll need to strap on gloves and remove some of the wastewater in a cup or container so it doesn't overflow when you try to unblock the pipe. If you're concerned about it filling further, manually close the flapper in the toilet tank or turn off the water supply to the toilet.

Running water can help melt ice inside the pipe, but only up to a certain point. If your pipe is frozen solid, adding water will not likely resolve the issue. Water will begin to flow through the affected pipe once the area is heated by a plumber, signaling the issue is getting resolved.

A well-installed wall-mounted faucet shouldn’t splash. That’s why it’s worth hiring someone with experience installing wall-mounted faucets. Beyond the installation, you should carefully choose the right faucet and sink combination. If your sink splashes after installation, you can try installing an aerator, which lowers the amount of water coming out of the faucet.

Some older homes have toilets in the basement to combat sewage backups. This type of toilet, also known as a Pittsburgh potty, acted as a safety valve over the incoming sewer line. If a line backed up, it would back up into the toilet because it was the lowest fixture in the home, keeping it out of sight and away from the finished areas of the house.

Basement toilets were also used by workers with messy jobs, like those who worked in coal mines or steel mills. This way, they could clean up and avoid tracking dirt through their home.
