"Paul squeezed me in the same day as I called him. He fixed a broken toilet and we are having him come back for additional plumbing work. He is easy to get a hold of and communicate with. He explains everything and his costs are great. We will continue to use him in the future!"

"Very professional tub to shower conversion. Existing drain was updated to meet code and existing plumbing lines and new shut-off valves were relocated. Great start to our bathroom remodel project."

"Salesman was informative, had brochures to explain the product. Pre-construction meeting was helpful to ask detailed questions. Installers arrived on time, put down drop cloths, removed shoes and cleaned up, for the most part. I had 2 showers replaced two months apart (due to mold issues) - first one finished in a day, second one took 2 half days due to a previous owner's plumbing issue. Five Star arranged for plumbing inspections day of and final one after completion. There were a couple of shower head and faucet issues for the first project but Five Star was very responsive to me and got them settled quickly (I recommend making sure you have the installers check out the equipment before they leave!). Price was comparable to other bids. Overall a good experience."

Customers say: True professional

"I cannot say enough about what a pleasure it was to work with Andy and how thrilled I am with the finished result in my kitchen. I collected a number of recommendations from friends for other contractors, whom I met with - but, I am so glad I went with Andy. From the start, his communication was exceptional. He gave me a very realistic (and ultimately accurate) timeline and I always knew exactly who was going to be working in my house on what days. No surprises what-so-ever, and when there were some minor unexpected plumbing issues once he opened the walls, Andy set up a time to discuss options with me and presented me with multiple solutions depending on my preferences and budget. There are SO many decision to be made for a large project like this, and as a first time homeowner, I was a bit overwhelmed at first - but Andy did an incredible job guiding me to quality suppliers for materials and helping me through the process all along the way. I never hesitated to ask if I had a question and Andy always took the time to respond and explain things in a way I could understand. Andy did a lot of the work himself, but his sub-contractors were also superb. Despite the fact that my kitchen was completely torn up, the house stayed surprisingly clean, they always left the site in great condition at the end of the day and were very respectful of my time and space. Even though the job was completed a few months ago, Andy has stayed available to me as I have had one or two silly little questions come up - he's been quick to respond and make sure I am satisfied and have the information I need. Andy's pricing and estimate upfront was clear and straight-forward and again, no surprises or anything questionable on that. Very fair cost for the quality of work and professionalism. I will be doing additional work (bathroom remodeling) in the next few years and would not go with anyone else besides Andy & Scott's Home Renewal. Photos are taken from different angles - but it is the same kitchen :)"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Address freeze risks immediately from October through March to protect your home from sub-zero temperatures. Sump pump failures also require urgent attention during the spring snowmelt. Because Waukee has hard water, replace water heaters older than eight years promptly to prevent sudden appliance failure. Delaying permitted plumbing work risks permit expiration, requiring a complete re-application process.

Helpful?

Local permit rules heavily influence your timeline. Waukee requires rough-in inspections before closing walls, forcing a multi-visit schedule for extensive plumbing work. Additionally, older neighborhoods with galvanized pipes demand more exploratory work than newer subdivisions with accessible full basements. High demand for local professionals also means same-day return visits are rare, requiring careful project scheduling.

Helpful?

Combining upgrades offers significant benefits for your home. Waukee allows combination permits for remodeling, which consolidates your inspection schedule. Because central IA has notably hard water, upgrade your water heater and install a water softener simultaneously to extend the appliance's lifespan. Plan exterior plumbing work during spring or fall to avoid frozen ground and winter weather complications.

Helpful?

Account for local water quality and climate conditions. The municipal water supply carries high mineral content and historical nitrate issues, making point-of-entry filtration systems a smart addition. For exterior plumbing, install all underground lines below the 42-inch IA frost depth to prevent freezing. Finally, verify HOA rules regarding utility box placement before starting exterior work in newer Waukee subdivisions.

Helpful?

Functional plumbing changes require permits and inspections in Waukee, while purely cosmetic fixture swaps do not. However, hard water mineral staining often masks underlying functional deterioration. Always inspect supply lines during cosmetic upgrades to ensure all connections remain secure. Older properties face hidden cast iron drain failures, making camera inspections essential before starting cosmetic bathroom remodels.
