"Rick Ray Plumbing is the best in town! They saved me thousands of dollars on my project. They’re fast and efficient. They’re reasonably priced. They treat your plumbing like it’s their own. They go over and beyond to give you great service. They put an AVV in under my kitchen sink and all the gurgling is GONE! I’m so happy I found these guys! They’re honest, friendly and trustworthy. No job is too large or small. They will get it done and done right. They stand by their work. They leave your area clean and picked up. I would never call anyone else for my plumbing issues.

"We are pleased with our bath remodel that included a new tub, tub surround and wainscot walls. There was one small problem with the walls due to the ceiling and walls not being plumb however they did go above and beyond by doing more than was was agreed upon by making plumbing improvements, installing a new lighted medicine cabinet and repairing a light fixture. They were very courteous and the installer even made a suggestion for a change that we agreed would be better."

"Wonderful service and job well done! Don and his team were, professional, polite, and the work ethic and efficiency of the Sure Dry team are remarkable. We have a split level home with below ground rooms. When it rains really hard, there was ground water seepage downstairs. A sump pump with a battery backup was installed under the interior stairs with drainage added all around each room. The price of the job was very reasonable, and we would hire Don and the Sure Dry team again without hesitation. Deb W. in Mt. Zion, IL"

"We have been using Tiger Plumbing Services for years and knew they would be reachable, as well as reliable. Every time we call they are always on time and able to do the work right then and there. The technician was very friendly and able to fix the problem while he was there. Because of them we didn't have to deal with the problem during the holidays. We are always very pleased with there work and plan on using them for any of our plumbing needs. Great job!

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Pool leaks most commonly occur at joints or where different materials meet. The most frequent leak spots include:

  • The Pool Skimmer: Where the plastic skimmer meets the pool's liner or shell.

  • The Pool Liner: Tears can develop in vinyl liners, especially those between 5 and 20 years old. Leaks also occur around the liner's edge.

  • Fittings and Accessories: Areas around return lines, the main drain, and pool lights are common culprits.

  • Pool Equipment: The pump, filter, and filter housing can also leak.

While leaks in underground pipes are less common, they can be costly to fix. It's usually best to check the more common spots before investigating the plumbing system.

The main cause of bathroom leaks is seals and connectors that loosen or deteriorate over time, causing leaks to develop. It's important to stay on top of your bathroom materials, as toilets, showers, and sinks all have different lifespans. Toilets and faucets last between 10 and 15 years on average with regular maintenance, but different parts may have shorter lifespans than others.

No, fixing or patching a hole in a gas line may not seal it completely. A patch should be a temporary solution because the damaged area will be weaker than the rest of the pipe, increasing the likelihood of future leaks. Therefore, if a gas line incurs damage, call a licensed plumber and have it replaced right away.

If you need to repair part of your plumbing, it will cost an average of $330. The cost of plumbing repairs is influenced by several factors, including the type of drain and the specific repair needed.

The best option is to alter the plumbing. Moving and centering the drain pipe behind the sink usually does the trick and creates the sleek, minimalist look that pedestal sinks offer. If you don’t want to do any plumbing work, there are a few decorating hacks:

  • Painting the pipes

  • Placing shelves, plants, or baskets in front of the pipes

  • Adding a sink skirt
