"Walter did a great job.  He came to our house as scheduled. He even called to say he was going to be a little late as another job was taking him longer than planned.  He came on a Saturday at no extra charge on his rates.  
I was aware of what was causing the leak and what it would take to repair the leak by checking it on a self repair site on the internet.  I felt the job was a little above my level of expertise so we called a plumber. 
Walter did only the work that was required and his price was astonishingly fair.  He is a licensed master plumber (we checked) who is self employed.  He did a great job and I would not hesitate to use him again or recommend his services.

"Richard, the owner, had a plumber over in no time. The work was completed quickly and with no trouble.  The repairs were very reasonable and the plumber, Jimmy, was very helpful and understanding.  It was a great experience compared to a previous visit from one of those 24-hour companies, both in quality and value."

"It went very well.  Despite the fact that I live in Tennessee and this company is in Boston, they helped me a great deal.  I can't remember what I actually paid them, but it seemed reasonable for what I got:  unlimited access to the decorator's assistance.   I had already chosen some of the elements needed for my bathroom remodel, but got bogged down over colors/curtains/light fixtures at the end.  I just needed some help in tying everything together.
Their decorator (Amanda Zettel) and I worked mainly through Pinterest;  I made a board of my bathroom, using pictures of what I'd chosen already, and she sent me links to items that she thought I would like in categories that I needed.  We also talked over the phone several times, and emailed, too.  I believe Homemade Design will also help you with vendors and purchasing, though I didn't use that service.  Amanda did send me to some new websites, and I chose my bathroom lights from one of them.  Amanda helped me choose the finish, the shades, and the placement of the fixtures, which I love.  They are unique and charming - thanks, Amanda!
She also sent me several names of paint colors to chose from for the bath.  Because of the variations in computer screen colors, some people might not be comfortable with this, but I wanted to be the one who actually picked the color.  I just felt a little overwhelmed at the huge selection, so Amanda was able to narrow my choices to a range that I could live with.  The color has been up on my wall for over a month now, and I'm very happy with it.
All in all, this was a very good experience, and I will definitely use Jeff and Amanda's help again!"

"Well, the first time the replacement was ordered it was the wrong one, which of course, delayed the installation a week. When it was finally installed I had to pay an additional $850 for code upgrades. This I was not informed of by Home Shield. Then we noticed that there was water on the garage floor and found that the pipe coming in from the wall was leaking at the wall so had to call the plumbing company back out to fix it. They first tried to say it was not their fault but since there wasn't a leak before they installed they did fix it. I have used Home Shield a few times before and never had a problem. Some of the companies they use are not the best so you have to research them before you commit. I have found HS service to be good if you do your homework. At the end of the day I was without hot water for almost 3 weeks but it was do to the plumbing company they sent out."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

A major mistake during plumbing repairs in Calais is failing to insulate pipes in unheated spaces, leading to severe freeze damage. Homeowners also overload existing septic systems by adding new fixtures without verifying capacity. Avoid ignoring corroded galvanized steel or lead supply lines when opening walls. Always secure proper approvals and hire a licensed professional for major alterations.

Helpful?

Before beginning plumbing work in Calais, secure all necessary permits from local authorities, especially for septic system alterations. Because local professionals and specialized parts are limited in this remote area, book your contractor well in advance. Plan outdoor work around the deep winter frost line. Always check your well water quality and septic capacity before adding new fixtures.

Helpful?

Upgrading your insulation during plumbing projects is highly recommended to protect pipes from extreme ME winters. When walls are open, update your electrical wiring to meet modern safety codes. Coordinate boiler replacements with domestic water heater upgrades to minimize service calls. You should also explore state efficiency programs, which offer rebates for installing heat pump water heaters.

Helpful?

For plumbing maintenance in Calais, keep a detailed record of your specific pipe materials and sizes to order emergency parts in advance. You must know the exact location of your main water shutoff valve and well pressure tank to act quickly during winter power outages. Keep insulation supplies ready to protect exposed pipes in crawl spaces before the freezing weather arrives.

Helpful?

As homes age in ME, extreme freeze-thaw cycles accelerate wear on buried plumbing lines and joints. Historic properties contain corroded galvanized steel or outdated lead supply lines that require complete replacement. Cast iron drain lines crack or suffer root infiltration over decades. Well pumps and pressure tanks also degrade, requiring replacement every ten to twenty years to maintain water pressure.
