"I hired a plumber through HomeAdvisor using prepay but I would not recommend this service. The contractor left a leaky pipe that caused water coming up through carpet. I had to purchase a wet vacuum to dry out the carpet. I had to contact HomeAdvisor again and hired Dave the Plumber, LLC who had to redo the installation done previously. Dave the Plumber replaced all the piping and outside spigot because of a water leak the previous contractor left. Thank you Dave the Plumber for being a professional and a job well done."

"Donald L. and Nick H. did a wonderful job replacing my mother's cast iron 40 year bathtub with a beautiful and safe "walkin" shower (there was also a master plumber on site but I did not catch his name). My mother asked alot of questions and really looked over the completed work but the guys never lost patience with our questions or concerns. They even talked about future concerns we might have and answered those questions as well. The house was left immaculate and all trash was taken away. We were also a given a demonstration on the operation of her new shower. Great Job, Everyone!!!"

Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts

Yes, a skilled plumber can thaw frozen pipes, and it is recommended to hire a professional rather than attempting a DIY fix. A plumber will typically start by investigating your plumbing to locate the frozen areas. They then use professional equipment, such as a heat gun, to safely thaw the affected pipes. If a pipe has already burst or developed leaks, the plumber can make the necessary repairs. For homes with frequently frozen pipes, a plumber can also suggest preventative measures like improving pipe insulation or rerouting lines away from areas prone to freezing.

It is generally recommended to schedule a professional plumbing inspection annually, though an inspection every two years may be sufficient for newer homes. The ideal frequency depends on several factors, including the age of your plumbing system, water quality (such as hardness), and any previous plumbing issues. More frequent checks are advisable for older homes or those with a history of problems. Additionally, if your property has mature trees with extensive root systems, more frequent inspections are beneficial as roots can crack sewer and water lines. Regular maintenance helps identify potential issues early, preventing costly repairs, and can include checking for leaks, inspecting connections, and ensuring pipes and fixtures are in good working condition to prolong the life of your plumbing system.

Yes, you should leave outside faucets dripping in freezing weather to prevent frozen and burst pipes. While a drip doesn't always prevent freezing, ice is less likely to form and there's less pressure in your pipes, meaning they’re less likely to burst. You can also winterize your outdoor faucets, eliminating the need to run a drip.

Yes, you can fit a vanity unit to an existing sink, especially if you plan to custom-build the vanity. With a prefabricated vanity, you’ll likely need to make a few adjustments. It depends on the type of sink, the size of the sink, and the existing plumbing. If you plan to retrofit a sink into a prefabricated vanity, make sure you take precise measurements and that your sink is compatible with the vanity you select. Prefabricated units have a precut sink hole, so you’ll need the size to match your sink.

Pedestal sinks typically come with two pieces: the pedestal (also known as the base or pole) and the sink basin. You may hear it referred to as a standalone sink. The sink sits on top of the pedestal, which attaches to the floor and hides the plumbing. Both pieces usually come in porcelain or ceramic.
