"Our hot water heater quit running Sunday morning. We got on Angie's list and put out an sos. Vince with Marathon plumbing answered us quickly and came out to our house within the hour. And we had hot running water by 12:30 p.m. they've installed an overflow relief valve to our floor drain in our basement. The work was done quickly and with good quality. And disposed of our old one. Thank you, Vince."

"Excellent service for a virtual format. Would definitely recommend this very affordable alternative to the traditional technician having to come to your home to evaluate and fix a malfunctioning appliance."
"We had a bathroom remodel with a walk in shower. Our installer was great for the most part. He was here a week or so before scheduled. We did not get the flooring we requested, I don?t mind that the floor is nice. We requested frosted shower doors but received clear. When they came by for the final payment we told them. The new doors were ordered, we were told at that time. It?s been three months and someone called again today about the final payment?my husband informed him that we still didn?t have the correct doors and that the correct plumbing vent had not been installed. They are a very personable company, but not always correct or fast."
"The crew arrived at the time promised. Ty and Kindra introduced themselves, outlined what they were going to do and went over the guidelines of the project. They were very conscientious about protecting the floors and covered them. Shortly after they began the removal of the existing tub Leon Panos, the plumber, arrived. Throughout the day other workmen and managers from Jacuzzi arrived to assist and see that things were going well. The people that were at my house and worked on my shower installation were; Tyrell, Kindra, Jakob, Jose, Zyler, and Ryan. Also Leon, the plumber. I was very pleased with the entire crew and their dedication to the work at hand, everyone pitched in and worked until the job was done. Well done everyone my shower looks great and we appreciate each of you and your willingness to answer everyone of our questions and concerns."
Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts
Most of the time, homeowners are responsible for replacing a main water shut-off valve. This is because the property owner also owns the water service line from the shut-off valve near their property line to their house. That means they must maintain, repair, or replace it when needed.
As long as you have the correct tools, know how to turn off the water lines, and are able to work in tight spaces, replacing a faucet in a bathroom is a potential DIY job. It requires many of the same steps as replacing a kitchen faucet, but it’s more challenging than replacing a showerhead. It could take anywhere from one to four hours to do the job yourself, while a plumber may only need one to two hours.
You shouldn’t shower while a sump pump isn’t working. Although household wastewater isn’t supposed to go into the sump pit, it’s best to wait to shower until your sump pump is running properly and able to move excess water out of the basement. If you need to shower when the sump pump isn’t working, aim for a short shower.
Pop-up drains come in various sizes, including 1.25", 1.5" and 1.625". Choose a drain the same size or smaller than the hole in your sink.
Plumbing installation can take a few days to a week, depending on the size and scope of the remodel and the coordination with other trades.
