"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."

"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."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

You should flush your water heater at least once a year, with some experts recommending a schedule of every six to 12 months (e.g., once in the spring and fall). The ideal frequency depends on several factors.

If your area has hard water with high mineral concentrations, you should flush the heater more often—typically every four to six months. Additionally, a water heater that is used frequently may require more frequent flushing than one that is used less often.

Regular flushing is important because it removes sediment buildup from the bottom of the tank. This maintenance helps improve the heater's efficiency, extend its lifespan, and prevent issues like clogs, overheating, and increased energy consumption. You can either learn to perform this task yourself or arrange for a service plan with a professional plumber.

First, find the cleanout pipe in your yard. Unscrew the cap—you may need a wrench to do so. Then, get a drain snake. You can use a non-motorized one, but a motorized snake will make the job a little easier. Feed the snake through the pipe until it reaches the clog. Spin the snake continuously, but don’t try to feed it through the pipe anymore. Keep spinning until you feel it break the clog apart.

Start by inspecting visible pipes for signs of corrosion, moisture, or discoloration, which can indicate a leak. You should also listen for sounds like hissing or dripping, which may point you toward a leak. Moisture meters and infrared cameras can also help you identify areas of increased moisture around your home, which can also signify a leak.

Yes, hiring a drain cleaner is worth it, especially when compared to the cost of not being able to use a sink, shower, toilet, or bathtub and the potential damage that flooding can cause in your home. You might try a temporary drain cleaning liquid or snaking it yourself, but if the clog is out of reach or these methods do not work, then hiring a professional drain cleaner is the way to go.

While you may have some water, it's best to wait until after the repair is complete to use your home's pipes. For one thing, the water pressure will most likely be greatly reduced, leading to a less-than-intense shower. There's also the risk of contamination from dirt and bacteria that can enter the broken water main pipe. In many cases, a pro will turn off the flow of water from your water main to do the repairs, so showering won’t likely be an option.
