"Steve is very likable and very personable. Steve was willing to come to my house, To evaluate the job and give me a fair estimate. Without requiring a down payment. I called another plumber in the area with the estimate that Steve gave me and he wouldn't even call me back after. While Steve was working he suggested a few improvements that he thought that I might like, that have worked out much better and he still maintained the same price. Steve will certainly be my go to guy for all my plumbing needs."

"I thought the price for a sump pump replacement was very expensive for what I had done (2 men, 2hrs). They quoted the estimate and charged me $1,500.00. Home Advisor had emailed/quoted me a fixed price of approx. 600.00. I had asked to schedule when they could do the job and said they could do it that day, THIS WAS NOT A RUSH/EMERGENCY, but I gave the go ahead because I just wanted this project done. There was no drilling involved (in the well and the wall to drain out). They replaced the sump pump and installed a new drain pipe in the well and attached it to the existing drain in my cellar wall. The plumbers were courteous and explained everything thouroughly so that weighed in on my overall star rating. Thanks."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Yes, a toilet, sink, and shower can share the same vent. This is a common installation method that can simplify plumbing and save space. However, there are important considerations. The vent and associated plumbing must be large enough to handle the demands of all fixtures without compromising the vent's effectiveness. Additionally, the toilet should always be located downstream of all other fixtures. Because requirements can vary and space might be limited, it is essential to check your local building and plumbing codes and consult with a qualified plumber to ensure the installation is done correctly.

While replacing an outdoor spigot is a fairly straightforward job that often takes less than an hour, it’s not a DIY-friendly task—even if you have basic plumbing experience. Depending on your home’s plumbing setup, you may need to access pipes in your walls or underneath your home. Plus, if you have copper pipes, you might have to solder them. For all of these reasons, we recommend hiring a knowledgeable local plumber to replace a hose bib.

Your pipes will not freeze just because you’ve turned your water heater off. Rather, pipes freeze when temperatures outside drop below freezing and the pipes are not properly insulated. In fact, leaving your faucets trickling with warm water (from the water heater) is one of the best ways to prevent your pipes from freezing in the winter.

Your water heater itself may have problems in the cold, so it’s important to winterize it each year. In addition, keep an eye on it throughout the year for problems and address any issues accordingly. For instance, here’s what to do if your water heater is leaking from the top.

Draining is the process of removing sediment buildup that has accumulated at the bottom of your hot water heater’s tank. Flushing is a more elaborate process that involves running fresh water through the tank to clean the inside thoroughly. You should at least drain your hot water heater once per year and flush it every other year—better yet, alternate between draining and flushing every six months.

If your copper pipe springs a leak, you don’t have to replace the entire pipe. You can replace just the damaged section, either by adding a new portion of pipe or using a slip repair coupling. Nonetheless, you may want to replace your pipes if they’re more than 20 years old or suffering from severe corrosion. A pipe replacement costs somewhere between $400 to $2,200.
