"The people on the phone and the workers that worked at my house were fantastic. Damien and Ernest were the installer's top rate people. Jack, their license plumber was polite and funny. The only person we didn't care for was Keith He only stopped by to look at what was going on. He was a little rude to my wife and Made her feel Like she was second class in her own home. We Were very shocked by that. We would definitely recommend Jacuzzi to our friends."

"I purchased a house and the first time it rained, I found I had a river running through my basement. After reviewing a few companies, I decided on FRS. The crew that completed the work, Gary Duvall-Joe Putnam-Davaughn Williams, arrived on time and completed the project ahead of schedule. They were courteous, professional, and took the time to go over the system that was being installed. I couldn't have asked for a better crew for this job. They kept the area free of debris and left it looking cleaner then it was before they arrived. The end result looks better than I expected it to and I will ask to have them sent back for any other project that may arise in the future. I would recommend them, without a doubt, to everyone."

"Provider was prompt, professional and friendly.  Arrived at the agreed upon time for a free estimate and performed work same-day after we agreed to the price.  He stuck to the price despite taking longer than expected and more work than usual due to worn-rusted pipes in my home.  Cleaned-up after himself and left no sign that work was done other than our new, working toilets.  We are very pleased and reccomend McDonagh & Sons Plumbing & Sewer Inc.

"I held off renovating my bathroom because of the stories I heard from friends about their bad experiences. If I’d known sooner about Bath Planet, I wouldn’t have had to. They are outstanding! I’m extremely happy with my new bathroom and appreciate the team that handled the job. They really listened to what I wanted and helped me every step of the way with the design process, and responded to any questions and concerns. The craftsmen paid unbelievable attention to detail, were meticulous in their work during the entire job, respectful and so easy to work with. They completed the job on time and within the budget."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

A key sign of correct plumbing work in Salem is a passed inspection record and a finalized permit from local authorities. Proper installations also feature visible backflow prevention devices, which state law requires. Correctly done work accounts for our cold winters with properly insulated or interior-routed pipes. Quality materials that resist mineral buildup from local hard groundwater also indicate a thorough job.

Helpful?

As homes age in Salem, original galvanized steel supply pipes corrode and restrict water pressure. Properties built mid-century face brittle plastic drain lines and mineral scaling inside copper pipes from hard groundwater. Sump pumps require replacement every decade due to heavy use in clay soils. Additionally, hard water accelerates sediment buildup, which shortens water heater lifespans and necessitates premature replacements in older local homes.

Helpful?

Pipe routing in unheated crawl spaces is highly vulnerable to freezing if improperly insulated. Underground supply and drain lines are also sensitive to shortcuts, as expansive clay soils in Salem shift and cause poorly bedded pipes to crack. Connecting older clay sewer laterals to modern plastic pipes requires exact techniques to prevent root intrusion. Finally, improper vent stack installations violate IL state codes and risk dangerous sewer gas leaks.

Helpful?

Build a seasonal routine by disconnecting outdoor hose bibs and checking pipe insulation before the first hard freeze hits Salem. During winter, monitor water pressure and inspect exterior-wall sinks for frost. Spring is the time to test sump pump function and check for joint leaks caused by freeze-thaw cycles. In summer, inspect outdoor spigots and test your pressure-reducing valve to handle high-demand municipal pressure fluctuations.

Helpful?

Start by securing all necessary permits and verifying your professional holds a valid IL state license. For outdoor plumbing projects, schedule the work during late spring or early fall to avoid frozen ground and wet, unstable clay soils. Always notify the state utility locating service two days before any excavation begins. Finally, request municipal sewer maps to understand your property's underground layout before digging starts.
