"I had a water leak over the weekend and TMI was the only company that answered and found an on-call plumber that would be able to come out within 1 hour! The plumber, Juan was INCREDIBLE! He was professional, knowledgeable, and helpful! I have never used a plumber prior to this past weekend and moving forward I will DEFINITELY be using TMI!"

"I used Tin Lizzee to diagnosis my refrigerator. John S. was very knowledgeable and helpful in diagnosing the problem. Lucky for us it was a minor repair. This is a wonderful service that was quick and efficient and affordable. Unlike the other place that I called that wanted to charge me $89-129 for a diagnostic and could not come out until about 2 weeks later. I definitely will use Tin Lizzee again for future appliance issues. I will tell all my friends and family about this service also. Thank you John S and Tin Lizzee for such wonderful customer service."

Bath Fitter provides custom bath and shower remodeling solutions that help homeowners update bathrooms with less mess, downtime, and disruption than a traditional renovation. Its services include bathtub liners, shower replacements, tub-to-shower conversions, walk-in and low-threshold showers, wall systems, doors, fixtures, grab bars, seats, and safety accessories. Each system is measured and custom-made to fit the existing space, often allowing installation in as little as one day. Durable acrylic surfaces are designed to be watertight, grout-free, easy to clean, and available in a range of styles. Bath Fitter is especially useful for homeowners who want a safer, more accessible, and more modern bathing space without a full bathroom remodel. Options like slip-resistant bases, handheld showerheads, seating, and ADA-compliant grab bars can improve comfort and confidence for everyday use, mobility needs, or aging in place.

"Huge thank you to Hains Plumbing and Drain Service in Coshocton. We had leaking pipes and toilet issues with only one bathroom in the house, so we were definitely stressed and in a bind. From the first call, everyone was friendly, professional, and helpful. They scheduled us quickly, confirmed everything, and even let us know who would be arriving and when. Our technician arrived earlier than expected, which was a huge help. He was polite, respectful of our home and cats, explained everything clearly, and took the time to answer our questions. You can tell he genuinely cares about doing the job right. He went above and beyond to make sure everything was fixed properly and even gave helpful advice to avoid future issues. The repair was completed in less than a couple of hours and the pricing was very reasonable. I’m truly grateful for the fast response and excellent service. Highly recommend this company."

Affordable Plumbers FAQs, answered by experts

The design of freeze-proof faucets ensures that the water in your outdoor spigot properly drains from the pipe to avoid freezing. These designs keep the outdoor spigot pipe from bursting and protect you from related plumbing repair costs, such as ice building up in connecting pipes and water damage in the area around the pipe.

Pipes most often burst during winter and early spring because those seasons experience the coldest temperatures that can freeze pipes. Pipes typically begin to freeze when the outside temperature falls below 20 degrees Fahrenheit—but it’s not a hard and fast rule.

The largest risk is any period of time when outdoor temperatures fall below freezing for six hours or more. That’s an average winter night in many areas of the United States, so it’s best to take precautions before winter begins, like insulating your pipes.

While not everyone can detect taste differences in high-calcium water, water that has a slightly metallic taste probably has too much calcium.

A well-installed wall-mounted faucet shouldn’t splash. That’s why it’s worth hiring someone with experience installing wall-mounted faucets. Beyond the installation, you should carefully choose the right faucet and sink combination. If your sink splashes after installation, you can try installing an aerator, which lowers the amount of water coming out of the faucet.

Yes, you can fix a shower diverter in many cases, depending on the specific problem. If hard water buildup is the issue, you can disassemble and clean your diverter. You may also be able to replace specific components when they break or wear down. All diverters are different, so when replacing parts, you’ll need to make sure you purchase a repair kit that’s compatible with your specific model.
