"I highly recommend Benjamin Franklin Plumbing. They cam within a day of when I called, assessed and fixed one problem, installed a new water heater the same day, and returned the next day to install new pipes above the water heater. The plumbers were polite, professional, and explained clearly what they were doing. Pricing was very reasonable and I also have a yearly service contract. Office personnel were also friendly and knowledgeable. Will only use them from now on."

"Have used Jarboe's for several plumbing jobs. A couple turned out to be major projects that were difficult to fix, but the job was always completed professionally and to my satisfaction. I usually prefer to do my own handyman projects but sometimes you need to turn to the pros. These are not the first plumbers I've used, but they are the best."

"Great! Arrived promptly. Assessed what needed to be done & quoted price. I felt the price was reasonable & hired Greenwell Plumbing to go ahead & repair the leak. They were finished the same day. I definitely would hire the company again & would recommend them to family & friends."

"Great! The only "hitch" was that their schedule was backed up and Craig asked me if I would be okay with being pushed back a week, to which I replied it was. Chris and Denny showed up at 8:30 on the Monday and had the old acrylic bath/shower unit and floor tile ripped out by 11:00. I had already removed the toilet and old vanity. They put down new sub-floor and installed a new alcove bat tub. Everything just seemed to go so smoothly. They tiled the bath surround and laid new floor tile; a plumber came in to install the new fittings. They were finished and out of there by mid-afternoon Thursday, and that was after wrestling a heavy vanity up the stairs for me, which I was to install as well as the new toilet. A really great job! I would fully recommend Creative Tile for any bathroom remodel. And if you are lucky enough to get Chris and Denny as your crew, then all the better, though I would be that Creative Tile would only use the best employees."

Plumbing FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, a skilled plumber can fix frozen pipes, and it is recommended to hire a professional for this task rather than attempting it yourself. A plumber will begin by investigating your plumbing to identify the frozen areas and then use a professional tool, such as a heat gun, to safely thaw the affected pipes. If a pipe has burst or developed leaks, the plumber can also make the necessary repairs. For homes with recurring frozen pipe issues, a plumber can provide long-term solutions, such as advising on where to add insulation or rerouting pipes away from areas prone to freezing.

Emergency plumbers charge a significantly higher rate than for standard service, typically 1.5 to 3 times the normal hourly cost. You can expect to pay between $100 and $500 per hour, with an average of around $200 per hour. In addition to the higher hourly rate, many plumbers charge a flat emergency service or trip fee, which can be between $150 and $300. The final cost depends on the timing of the call; prices are highest for major holidays, followed by weekends and after-hours service on weekdays. For a complex job on a major holiday, a master plumber's rate could reach as high as $600 per hour.

A two-way cleanout can help if there’s already a clog, but the best strategy to prevent one is by not rinsing grease, oil, or fat down your drains, not flushing or rinsing coffee grounds or egg shells down your drains, flushing only human waste and toilet paper (so no diapers, period products, bathroom wipes, or paper towels), and using drain guards on all of your drains.

DIY is not recommended due to specialized equipment requirements. Professional services ensure accurate diagnostics.

Bleach isn’t likely to help unclog a sewer line. Bleach isn’t useful in this situation because it won’t dissolve the grime and debris in the clog. Instead, you want to use ingredients that will have a chemical reaction to clear out the buildup, like vinegar or salt and baking soda.
