"In January 2025, Cincinnati got 10+ inches of snow and, the temperature dropped and stayed in the single digits for weeks. A pipe froze and burst in our garage and we were forced to call a plumber. Brandon of G3 Plumbing promptly responded to our referred, emergency call. He fit us into his busy schedule and provided reasonable options for repairs. He was approachable, honest, professional, straight-forward, reasonably priced, and he cleaned up afterward! It was a relief to find someone who didn't try to take advantage of our situation, showed up on time and worked quickly. G3 is now the only plumber we'll use and refer to others with confidence. These are rare qualities when one must hire service providers in today's society of bad actors. Brandon has skills and integrity!"

"We needed to check our water heater for leaks prior to closing the sale of our house.Joe Lay were out installing a new water heater and expansion tank the next day. The technician explained how all the components were supposed to work before checking everything so we both knew we needed a new tank as well. Outstanding, professional company. Billy was very respectful, knowledgeable and professional the entire time in our home. We would highly recommend Joe Lay and Sons for any plumbing needs."

"Fast, professional and reliable team that made sure my family was taken care of when our water heater decided to quit in the middle of the winter. The team memeber that did the install was highly knowledgeable and gave us several options and didn't feel like he was just trying to take advantage of us. Will definitely be recommending maximum plumbing to my friends and family for their plumbing needs in the future"

"Not that anyone ever relishes the thought of needing a plumber, but my first experience using Topshell convinced me that it is the only company I will even consider calling when a future plumbing need arises. Price for the immediate problem was extremely reasonable and Noah went far beyond the call of duty In assisting on a secondary issue at no additional charge. He was extremely knowledgeable, friendly, patient in explaining things until they were completely understood, and meticulous about caring for my home. A truly unbelievable experience. Highly recommend this company. First time in my life I have ever tipped a plumber!"

"We had the crew of Michael Smith, Thomas S and Mathew Hughes . They were very profesional, explained the whole process and kept us updated of every step of the remodel of 2 bathrooms. They did all new plumbing for the 2 bathrooms. The process took around 6 hours for the 2 bathrooms and left all clean . We recommend them for any project you have in your home."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

In the United States, a depth of 36 inches (three feet) for underground water lines is the accepted industry standard. This depth varies from location to location based on local conditions. In areas with colder winters, they may be buried deeper to prevent frozen well water pipes : This is usually at least six inches below the frost level. The International Plumbing Code calls for a minimum of 12 inches below grade.

Many plumbers include removing and disposing of the old toilet as part of their service package. However, it’s best to ask before signing a contract, as removal isn’t guaranteed. If the plumber doesn’t take the old toilet, you have several options, including donation, recycling, junk removal, and bulk waste services..

The lifespan of insulation depends on the material type. Fiberglass can last between 80 and 100 years, but it is important to start checking it around the 15-year mark. Spray foam has a lifespan of up to 100 years, and mineral wool can last up to 100 years. Cellulose, an eco-friendly option, has a lifespan of 20 to 30 years.

Homeowners insurance usually doesn’t cover sewer backups because it’s typically an avoidable problem with proper maintenance. The only exception would be if the backup is occurring because of local flooding and only if your city uses a combined drainage system for stormwater and sewage. If that’s the case, your policy should cover any resulting damage.

The amount of clean water your cistern can supply depends on its size and the local rainfall patterns. Cisterns range from a few hundred to several thousand gallons in capacity. 

To estimate the potential supply, consider the average annual rainfall in your area and the catchment area of your roof. For instance, a 1,000-square-foot roof can collect around 600 gallons of water from just one inch of rainfall. 

Multiply this by the average annual rainfall to get a rough idea. However, factors like evaporation and system efficiency will also play a role.
