"I had a really bad shower and toilet clog so I decided to contact flo-maxx and they sent 2 professionals, Garret and Raymond to do the job but I wasn’t sure if they would be able to clear the drain, they definitely cleared it super quick and also cleaned my floor afterwards. They finally left but there was a small leak from the toilet water line and I called them and they came back again to check it and fix it, no big deal they did great! 10/10"
"Anthony, a representative with Best Price Sewer and Plumbing, reached out to me by phone. He asked what issues we were having and asked me to take/send a photo of the sump pump. I did as he asked. Turns out it was the ejector pump and not the sump pump. He scheduled to come out the very next morning at 10am and he arrived right on time. Anthony was extremely nice, jovial, and very respectful of our home. He went downstairs to assess the problem and explained exactly what materials would be needed for the repair. He then ran out (for the parts) and said he would return in about 45 minutes. Again, returned right on time! Upon his return with his materials, he immediately got to work. My husband kept Anthony company as he worked. Anthony explained everything he was doing and why. As he worked, he and my husband discovered they had something in common (i.e. military). You could hear them talking/laughing - voices carrying through the floor as Anthony worked. Once Anthony was done, he ran a few tests to be sure everything was in working condition. He answered any questions that we had (he’s very knowledgeable and knows his stuff!). Before we knew it, Anthony was done. Right before he left, we discussed the flappers in the toilet bowls - another upcoming project. He thanked us and we thanked him. I HIGHLY recommend this company for all plumbing needs. They will be on my speed-dial from here on out! Thank you, Anthony!"

"Toilet was backed up and overflowed. Able Sewerage came out on March 4, 2013 and found the sewer lines from my house had collapsed. They gave me an estimate of $2100 to do the work which included: (1) Breaking up the concrete sidewalk (2) digging up the ground down to the sewer pipes (3) installing new sewer pipes (4) called the City Inspector out to inspect and insure installation was up to city standards. Also while the City Inspector was there they put a camera in the sewer lines to may sure there were no damage to sewer line out to the city main sewer line (5) rodded out the lines one last time (6) covered the sewer lines back up with dirt (7) replaced broken up sidewalk with new sidewalk. On March 8, 2013 Able Sewerage came out at 8am as promised and did all the work exactly as stated above. They did a fantastic job. I highly recommend them. "
"They were very thorough, prompt, professional, but it took me 6 weeks to get the appointment despite the fact that we have young kids, were concerned about mold forming under our tiles, and had water dripping down our walls. They said they would give me an "emergency priority"- how long do the people have to wait who don't have emergencies?! Wow. The quote was a little higher than others, but was more thorough. They did not really explain that we would have to remove the washer, dryer, and bathroom (shower, toilet, vanity) for them to install the drain tile, then replace them all. We decided it was just too expensive and had the cracks sealed instead. So far no leaking, but our fingers are crossed for spring."
"Anthony and the crew at â Pitch Perfectâ has done an amazing job on multiple projects in our home. Everything from a new well tank and a complete water filtration system with a polisher and softener to a new A/C condenser and A-coil. He has done multiple smaller jobs also including toilet install and rodding of all the lines in our home along with overall seasonal maintenance on our furnace and AC units.. Whenever I call Anthony he is here in a timely manner, always considerate, professional, and clean! He has been our â go toâ plumber/HVAC guy for years and I donâ t see us using anyone else ever again! HIGHLY RECOMMEND! FIVE STARS!"
"I had a leak in the pipe connecting toilet to sewer. Four Season came and replace my old corroded cast iron piping with PVC piping, and also replaced the old toilet with a new one."
Adding another bathroom isn’t the most complicated project you can undertake, but it’s in the top 5%. Anything involving plumbing and electrical work should be handed off to a pro, and adding a half bath involves both. A contractor may charge $70to$120 an hour for labor, but chances are they can work much faster and more accurately than a DIYer.
The most practical and common setup is a toilet that connects with the sewer line or a septic tank. However, it is possible to install a toilet without a sewer line, and this can be particularly helpful in basements with no or outdated plumbing. An increasingly popular option is an environmentally friendly composting toilet. Other waterless options include incinerating or dry flush toilets, which pull the waste into an airtight container.
Yes, you can fill your toilet tank manually to help it flush, or you can pour the water directly into the bowl to flush it manually. This will work for the majority of toilets, as most use a gravity feed system. However, you should only ever use this as a temporary solution. If your toilet tank isn’t filling, you should find out why. First, make sure the speedy valve connected to your toilet and your water main are open. If that doesn’t solve the issue, call in a professional to address the problem.
Whether or not a power-flush toilet is worth it depends on your toilet needs and your budget. If your bathroom sees a lot of use or you’re concerned about the toilet clogging, then a power-flush toilet may be the right choice. You should also check the pressure requirements to make sure your system can handle the necessary requirements.
Completing a full standard bathroom remodel offers the best value, with an average return on investment (ROI) of 70%. However, you don't need a full remodel to make an impact. To maximize value, focus on key components like flooring, the tub and shower, vanity, and cabinets. High-value upgrades include installing a walk-in shower, resurfacing a tub, retiling, or expanding the shower. For more budget-friendly options that still increase value, consider repainting with a light, neutral color, or updating the mirror and light fixtures. It's also crucial to address any necessary repairs, such as leaks, mold, or cracked tiles, as buyers will notice these issues. Avoid flashy upgrades like bathtub jets or steam showers, which don't add as much value.
