Fayette Heating & Air was founded in 1971 with one man, one truck and $500. From the start, Al Melrose was committed to providing quality equipment with integrity and outstanding customer service. As a second generation family-owned business, those same values lead our company today. Fayette Heating & Air has been recognized nationally, regionally and locally for both business practices and its community efforts.

"BUYER BEWARE!!!!! This company is all about getting their $99.00 for the estimate, selling you an annual service fee and then quoting exuberant prices. Not really sure if they really care about doing the actual plumbing work. Recently gave me an estimate for a job of $500. Learned later after from another plumber that what they wanted to do was actually not correct AND should have cost no more than $250. Had I used Fayette Heating / H20 Mastero, I would have paid $600 for a job done incorrectly. At least the 99.00 I paid kept me from damaging my house further. There are a lot of reputable plumbers in Lexington. Suggest you look elsewhere"

"My experience with LexRooter was excellent. I highly recommend them. I give them the highest rating for the work they did for me. I have owned my home for more than 38 years. Never have a had a sewage back up before. It was coming up through the finished basement floor drain pouring all over the floor. At a time like that a person feels rather helpless. I phoned LexRooter and the dispatcher was warm and professional. Music to my ears, she said a technician would arrive in less than 30 mins. Markiss arrived shortly after I hung up the phone. He listen carefully to the things that I had done in an attempt to unclog the mainline. Immediately he went to his truck and brought in a high-powered snake to snake the basement drain back to the easement at the back of my property . When this snake wasn’t successfully clearing the blockage, he quickly contacted his supervisor. I appreciated this so much because not only was he working with integrity himself, he had the humility to know when he needed to ask for help wasting no time!! I consider that to be a very very valuable resource in any technician. Daniel, his supervisor arrived. I believe he said he has worked for the company for eight years. I appreciated his experience and skill. Daniel impressed me immediately. He was very respectful and yet confident in his own ability to address the problem. He listened to everything I had to say and everything the other technician had to say, and then he moved forward from his experience to do the exact things needed to fix the problem and fix it quickly He explained to me that he needed to use a snake that was a larger gauge which he had in his truck and he told me that the right thing to do was to create a clean out. My house was constructed a long time before and it didn’t have a clean out in the yard and it didn’t have any kind of clean out in the house. He quickly constructed a clean out at very minimal cost that accommodated the larger higher powered snake, which in short order resulted in one of the most wonderful sights a person could have when their house is flooding with sewage -suddenly the basement drain happily started to swallow up, sewage draining very very quickly. Now not only do I have the mainline drain clear and functional, I finally have an easy access clean out. Yay!! The company is very lucky to have Daniel working for them. I feel confident that in every job he has a hand in, not only will the problem be solved, it will be done fairly and as inexpensively as is reasonable. Daniel will leave his customers eager to use LexRooter again if need arises. Markiss and Daniel worked together efficiently. The speed and quality of the work turned a nightmare experience into one that left me with a lot of gratitude in my heart. The bill was also extremely fair."

"It went very well! Tim came to the apartment and looked at the issue. He told me that he will place the order for the new and more efficient unit than the old boiler and install asap. Tim's crew came the following Monday to demolish the old boiler and installed the new boiler on the same day. The new boiler was up and running on the same day. It was a smooth startup!"

In business since 1944, A+ rating with BBB, proven products, systems and work processes. Structural engineer approved. Additional DBAs: Case Waterproofing, Case Foundation Systems LLC, Case Advance Concrete Lifting. Also serving portions of North & South Davidson Counties.

"It went great! They were very professional and were here when they said they would be and cleaned up behind themselves. We did have a minor leakage problem with the first rain, but we called and they were back here within a couple of days to fix the problem and we have had no leakage since. I was impressed that they handled the call back so quickly, which to me, says a lot about their integrity. The company that did our original waterproofing has left Kentucky and our "lifetime" transferable warranty is now void, so having been burned once we were a bit leery, but they proved to be a very reliable company. Would not hesitate to recommend or use them again."

"My experience was Terrible! Owner called me 1 year After work completed and said I didn’t pay my bill (which I had already). Mentioned this to a friend and she said Zach Gammon pulled the same double-billing scheme on her! Incompetent employees , shoddy work, left tools on job site. Charged me $1,000+ to dig a new water line 10 feet one winter. Use at your own risk!"

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

The septic installation company must follow several steps to put in a new septic system and leach field. The installer will study your property and determine the best place for the tank and leach field. The site should be away from existing structures, be free of trees, and have proper drainage and grading. Preparing the site for the tank and leach field will require significant excavation work.

It is not normal to smell your septic outside and indicates a problem such as an unsealed manhole or access lid, a clogged septic line, a faulty vent stack, or the need for a septic tank pumping. If sewage is leaking from your septic system, it can be hazardous to you, your family, pets, and the surrounding environment. You can troubleshoot the issue yourself, or contact a septic tank pro who can resolve the issue quickly.

The smallest septic system you can buy is a 750-gallon tank, but that doesn’t necessarily mean you can legally use this tank size. Check with your local health department in case the minimum tank size in your area is 1,000 gallons.

For the most part, choosing between 30/50 psi and 40/60 psi is based on your water-pressure preference. However, it can also depend a little bit on your house—if you have older plumbing, a lower water pressure can be easier on the pipes (and a bit more gentle on your well pump). 

The lower 30/50 pressure is usually enough for a single-story home, but you may want 40/60 if you have multiple stories, as the extra pressure helps water flow smoothly up to the second floor.

The disadvantages of having a well include more maintenance, like annual testing and inspections, and high up-front costs to drill a well. Well water is also vulnerable to contamination, which is why keeping up with testing is important if you own a well. When it comes to well water versus city water, well water does offer more independence and is a reliable water source.
