"Jake and his team did an amazing job on installing our floors. We’re renovating our home and had our master bedroom/closet switched from carpet to laminate floors. The team was professional, answered all our questions, and completed the job as planned. They did such an amazing job that they’re also going to do the kitchen backsplash and plumbing once the countertops come in. I’m really happy with everything thus far and look forward to working with Jake and his team in the upcoming weeks. I highly recommend Picture Perfect for any of your renovation needs."

"I tried calling a number of plumbers on Friday night for work to be done first thing Monday morning. They were all just answering services. Angiâ  s List estimated $420. One of the others wanted $89 just to come to the house. It was 10:00 at night and Gabe answered the phone. He asked me a few questions and gave me a probable diagnosis right over the phone. He came to the house first thing Monday morning no charge. The job turned out to be bigger than either of us expected. He showed me everything that was wrong. He and his crew fixed it beautifully. They were very respectful of my home and cleaned up after themselves. (They even cleaned up after the handyman who was there the day before!) It only ended up costing $150 but it was well worth it. Way better than Angiâ  s estimate of $420. I hope I donâ  t need a plumber ever again but if I do, Iâ  m calling Gabeâ  s Construction and Restoration. Thanks Gabe!"

Plumbing FAQs, answered by experts

If you notice your main water shut-off valve is leaking, try tightening the valve slightly to see if it stops the leak. If the leak persists or worsens, it’s best to contact a licensed plumber to assess and repair the valve. Using too much force or attempting a DIY repair can further damage the valve.

Basement toilets don’t always need a pump. However, it is the most common setup because plumbing systems use gravity to move waste away from the home. Basement toilets often sit below the home’s main sewage system, and installing a sewage ejector pump pushes the wastewater and sewage up to the main sewer line. Alternatively, you can use an upflush or macerator toilet that breaks down the waste and pushes it straight to the main sewer line rather than via a sewer line from the bathroom.

Yes, it is safe to turn off the main water valve. As long as you don’t force the shut-off valve and break it, you can’t damage the water supply pipes by shutting off the water. We wouldn’t recommend shutting it off regularly without a good reason. However, when you need to know what to do in a plumbing emergency, shutting off the water main is a safe way to reduce water damage inside your home.

If you can’t unscrew your bathtub drain, it could be due to stripped post threads. The best way to handle this is to pull the stopper up while turning it. Eventually, you should see a screw set that you can loosen with a flathead screwdriver to remove the bathtub drain.

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.
