Exterior to interior, top to bottom, our plumbing services address anything and everything.

With our team you can expect full preparation for every job, no matter how rushed. Fully licensed, bonded, and insured, every member of our team of plumbing contractors has years of experience in the local industry, and pride themselves in doing quality work, even and especially on, emergency calls.

"Having removed the cistern cover of the powder room toilet to disentangle the flush chain, I discovered that a gasket at the top of the ballcock mechanism was leaking and squirting water all over the place. I quickly closed the wall shut-off valve, which promptly began to leak water on to the floor. These components are 30 years old. I found SAV Plumbing on Angies List and put in a computer request for a quote. Mr. Sumilovas called me a few minutes later and I explained the problem. He came to the house in about 30-40 minutes. I showed him the parts that were leaking. He replaced the entire ballcock assembly with a new, modern type and also the wall shut off valve with a new stainless steel type of valve and braided connection pipe. The new ballcock assembly fills the tank very rapidly and is much, much quieter than the old one, so I was very pleased with it. He completed the work in less than an hour and there have been no leaks. I am very satisfied with the work, especially the fact that the replacement parts are of high quality. I have been looking for a good plumber for some considerable time and I am very happy to have found one. I will definitely call Mr. Sumilovas again if I have any further plumbing needs."

Wells and Pumps questions, answered by experts

Many pros offer rapid response services to restore essential water flow quickly.

Yes, it is possible to drill a well by hand, but it calls for a good deal of physical labor. Drilling a well by hand is best suited for softer soil, and it may not be possible through rockier terrain. For wider and deeper holes, companies with professional equipment make the job much easier.

The precharged pressure tank should start at around 28 psi. The two pressure settings of note are the cut-in and cut-out pressure. The well pump starts when the tank reaches the minimum cut-in pressure. It turns off when the tank reaches the maximum cut-out pressure. The desired water pressure in the household is usually a few psi above the cut-in number. The difference between the cut-in and cut-out pressure settings should be 20 psi. Typical settings for household applications include 20/40, 30/50, and 40/60.

Repairs typically take 2-4 hours. Complex issues may require additional time.

How do you set your well’s pressure tank? All you need to do is first drain the tank of water and find the pressure switch. Remove the switch cover and adjust the switch with a wrench—clockwise to increase water pressure, and counter-clockwise to reduce it. Each complete turn of the nut on the switch should equal 2.5 psi. Once this is done, replace the switch cover. All that’s left is to adjust the pressure of the tank itself using an air compressor and a tire gauge to support the new setting.
