"These guys were GREAT!. We had an 'urgent' need with sink problems in a house of BSU students studying for finals. I was out of town, different time zone, hard to reach and they totally worked with me. They got right over. Not just fixed immediate problem but really helped us to upgrade affordably. They are on my Favorites now"
"The plumber who did the job was polite, knowledgeable, and friendly. He got the job done in the time frame they gave, and it appears to be a quality job. We got 3 bids for this project, and Elevated was the lowest. Would highly recommend this company."
"They were very responsive to my request for repairs and came out within 2 hours. Nolan, the service tech spent over 1-1/2 hours accessing where the underground pipe leak was. They provided 3 estimates for repairs. They had the leak fixed in one day. Chris, the owner, was out 3 times to check how it was going. They are very professional and I would highly recommend them."
"I would highly recommend Kyle and Pristine Plumbing. He did a great job replumbing our entire house and installing a new water heater at a price that was very affordable. Kyle always returned calls, showed up to the job on schedule and completed the job on schedule."
"There were some minor problems with the installations - a leaking faucet (brand new faucet installed by Magic), and another brand new faucet that had the cold side quit working a day after they installed new feeder lines. However, in each case, Magic quickly sent a plumber out to fix the issues. Overall, they installed 3 new faucets, two new toilets, and four new sinks. We'll have them out again to put in a water line for our new refrigerator/freezer's ice maker, as soon as the appliance arrives."
"Dan Caruso, our plumbing service technician was professional, knowledgeable, and a real pleasure to work with. He offered us options to consider and always had our interest in mind. The company, Perfect is just that , perfect! From receiving our call to scheduling to dispatch, everything worked well. I would highly recommend this company!"
"At first they did a great job. We had the main line to the house was replace and when they dug it up and back filled. They came out and made it right thank you and we will come to you guys again."
Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts
To bleed air from the pipes, start by turning off the main water supply. Then, starting with the faucet that’s closest to the water valve, open each of your faucets halfway, making sure to open both hot and cold options if they’re separate. This allows the air to escape the pipes. Once all faucets are open, turn your water supply back on and let the water run for 10 to 15 minutes until the faucets stop sputtering.
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.
As far as plumbing goes, replacing a kitchen faucet is an entry-level project. That said, you may run into complications. If your faucet is incompatible with your countertop or you have to alter your plumbing, you may want to hire a pro.
Plumbers can be held liable for their work for anywhere from a year to six years, depending on where you live, but in most states, premises liability lasts for three to four years. You can contact your state’s licensing board to find out how long your plumber is liable. Your local building department or a consumer protection agency in your area can also confirm the timeline for you.
Removing calcium and lime buildup will often fix a clogged faucet head. You can usually remove any buildup with distilled white vinegar or a combination of vinegar, dish soap, and baking soda. Sometimes, the problem is buildup on the aerator, in which case removing and cleaning that part should fix your water flow. However, the design of some aerators makes them difficult to clean. For those, replacing the aerator will get the faucet flowing well again.
