"I had a wonderful experience with Five Star Bath Solutions! From start to finish, the process was smooth, professional, and stress-free. The owner Nathan was extremely helpful, professional and followed through with everything he said including start time and completion of work to get done. Rob did the work, and he did an absolutely amazing job. He was friendly, knowledgeable,respectful, detailed, and clearly takes pride in his work. The finished result looks beautiful, and everything was completed with great care and quality. I would highly recommend Five Star Bath Solutions to anyone looking for excellent service and a job done right!"

"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."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Yes, because any trapped moisture can have a negative impact on the integrity of the wall or façade of the building. Per the 2015 International Residential Code and Commentary: “Weepholes shall be provided in the outside wythe of masonry walls at a maximum spacing of 33 inches (838 mm) on center. Weepholes shall be not less than 3/16 inch (5 mm) in diameter. Weepholes shall be located immediately above the flashing.”

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.

The cost to hire a plumber ranges from $175 to $450 for a simple job, with the average cost per hour ranging from $45 to $200. Depending on the job, some plumbers charge a flat rate or service fee of $300 on average. Expect to pay more for complex jobs and emergency plumbing repairs, but minor adjustments, diagnostics, and small repairs will cost less. 

Many plumbers offer pressure checks as a part of routine inspections, so if you’re already scheduling a plumbing service for another issue, it’s worth asking them to test your water pressure while they’re there.

The first step in lowering costs due to damage is keeping an eye out for potential leaks, a common problem new homeowners may notice. That’s because the sooner you identify a water issue, the smaller its impact on drywall, flooring, and fixtures. Low water pressure, water on the floor, loose tiles, a change in water color, or slow drains are signs of a potential leak.

Main water shut-off valves last 10 to 20 years on average, though they can sometimes last longer. This depends in part on the material you choose. Brass valves are very durable, but more expensive bronze or stainless steel valves may last even longer. Main water shut-off valves often fail due to aging internal parts, such as rubber washers. However, corrosion and sediment buildup also contribute to valve failure. If purchasing a home at least 10 years old, you may want to replace the main water shut-off valve soon to avoid potential problems.
