"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."

"Job was done in timely manner. Cleaned nicely when job was finished. Danny W was my installer Came in removed old jetted tub and surrond .Fixed a plumbing issue with p trap in shower area. Installed new shower and grab bars. Needed tub removed with aging in place. Tired of stepping over tub..The new shower easier to clean with vinegar and water. Grab bars that I don't have to worry about them breaking. The surround goes to the ceiling. So don't have to worry about water on the backer board.. With the chrome and stainless steel looks amazing.Glad got bench seat in back.So can sit and shower .With shower hose extension."

"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."

"I have used Tom Drexler multiple times. Their plumbers are always competent and the customer service is top notch. My recent project had to be rescheduled twice (due to delays with a contracter) and then the plumbing repair that was needed turned out to be a larger project than originally expected, but it was no problem. Every time I have used Tom Drexler they have completed the job properly the first time. They are competent, easy to work with, and most importantly, they have integrity!"

"They were very prompt in coming to evaluate and give me a quote.  The price I stated did not include tile, tub, vanities, etc, but did include some other plumbing/construction materials.  Basically, it didn't include anything where you had a preference of styles. They were able to start the job within 2 weeks of me accepting which was important to me because we were having plumbing issues with old bathrooms.  
Craig and his team worked very hard and were professional.  They showed up when they were said they would and even worked one Saturday to get the job done.  
It was a large task to complete 2 bathrooms at once, but they shared plumbing and it had to be done.  They completed the job in about 10 or 11 days.
The bathrooms turned out beautiful and I would definitely use Creative Tile again.

Plumbing FAQs, answered by experts

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.

Yes, a sprinkler system can leak even when it is turned off. This issue is often caused by a leaky valve, which may have a crack or hole that allows water to pass through. In many cases, repairing the valve will solve the problem. Another possibility is that water is simply finishing its draining cycle, which you might notice at the lowest sprinkler head as gravity pulls the remaining water out. More seriously, the leak could be due to improper grading of the system, which can lead to significant water waste. It's also possible that what appears to be a leak is actually just poor drainage in your yard. If you suspect a leak, it's a good idea to have a professional take a look to diagnose the exact cause.

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.

Problems with a damaged handle or valve cartridge can result in a leaking faucet that won’t turn off completely. The faucet may also be rusty or corroded, which can prevent the faucet from turning the water off all the way. A leaky faucet can cause issues beyond the annoying dripping sound. It also wastes water and can be an indication that something else is wrong with the system, so fix a leaky bathtub faucet as soon as possible.

While the toilet bowl and toilet tank require haul away to your curb, landfill, or recycling center, you can dispose of your old, used toilet seat in your regular garbage collection. If your toilet seat is plastic or duroplast, you can even recycle it instead at a local recycling facility.
