"Highly recommend! The installer did an amazing job and was very patient with all of my husband's questions. The rep was a very nice young man and explained the process in simple way that we both understood. We especially liked that they are a local company. The owner and rep even went to Belvidere...go Bucs!"

"In the last month I have had both of these crews working on my patio and basement wall. I asked them questions and they gave good answers. Tim Boudrean, the crew leader on the wall project, took time to explain the whole process of putting up carbon fiber wall supports. The whole crew seemed to know there jobs well and cleaned up good when they were done. I was pleased with the work done. I must say I had one major complaint about the wall job. The agreement I signed stated I must prepare the basement so they would have access to the wall. It was difficult for me because we have a bathroom against part of the wall. I was afraid the bathroom would be destroyed, so I measured the distances that was needed between the carbon braces. (a lot of Youtube research) I figured that the only part of the bathroom affected would be the sink. The sales rep disagreed and said the shower had to be taken out. I gave in and had the shower taken out. The installation crew actually placed the braces almost exactly where I had marked. The shower did not have to be removed. Mid American Basement should have sent an installer instead of a sales rep to verify the placements. It cost me extra to have the shower removed and will cost more to repair the tear down."

"I can't say enough good things about this company. I paid Angles list for the great deal of $99 for two hours of plumbing labor. 
When I called Catenzaro to set up the appointment, I spoke to Tom and when I gave him my address he paused and said there
was a mistake on the deal as it didn't cover in the city of Chicago. But he then imeadeatly said he would honor the deal. So we set up a time. The day before, Dave, one of their plumbers called to talk through what we needed so he could bring the right parts. He
said he would be at our place at 9:30 and that is when he arrived. He took a look and gave me all the details and that it might take a little longer than the 2 hours and gave me what the extra hour would cost. He didn't need to do that as he finished in the two hours.
He did a fantastic job and was a very nice guy who had a very professional appearance. The cost of the parts was not included in the $99 fee and their price on the parts was very reasonable. I would highly recommend Catenzaro plumbing for your plumbing 
needs.

"repair would have cost more than it was worth for the age of the unit, so replaced with their recommended product. The cost of their product was much higher than what you can purchase at the local hardware stores but felt it was worth the investment if it lasts longer. The servicemen took longer than expected because they were waiting for water pressure to release, rather than opening all the faucets initially. Otherwise the product so far is working well."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

It’s sometimes difficult to distinguish a clog from a frozen drainpipe since ice technically causes a clog. If the temperature doesn’t tip you off, there are a few additional signs that your pipe is frozen. Look for condensation and frost around the pipes. Ice in pipes can cause a banging or clanking noise as opposed to a clog from a softer material.

There are several signs that can indicate you have air in your pipes, including unusual noises coming from the pipes, like banging and whistling, and inconsistent water flow and pressure. Spitting from the faucet right when you turn the water on is another indication that you might have air in the pipes.

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.

While you can complete this task if you have some DIY knowledge, it is recommended that you hire a plumber to ensure that the work is done correctly and safely. This is especially true if a new water line needs to by installed from scratch, as this process requires cutting into pipes or walls.

Beyond keeping the entire plumbing system flowing, plumbing vents also help control gas and odors from entering the home. These vents also allow fresh air to enter your plumbing system, which helps improve water flow. A sure sign the plumbing vent is failing or needs repairs is if there’s a strong sewage scent coming from multiple points of the home.
