"We were pleased with the price and my husband said the owner was very easy to work with.  We knew this was a small job (not much money involved), and the owner came out himself to check things out and give a quote.  The bathroom is very small and hard to manuever, but we were disappointed that the workemen left scratches on doors and the wood frame.  No big deal, they can be cleaned up with a little Old English.  After the tub was installed, the area around the tub was plastered by the workmen that day and they said they were done.  Of course, since it was thick, it cracked while it dried.  But, the owner came out a day or so later and re-plastered it.  It cracked a little less during the curing time and my husband was able to fix it and repaint the bathroom.  If you don't have someone that is handy, keep this in mind.  While I love the new bathtub, there are a few concerns.  First, the scratches on the door and woodwork.  Hard to avoid with the size of this bathroom. So, that was almost understandable.   But, the men put their tools in the sink without protection.  This left surface scratches in a new sink.  While they were installing the tub, they mentioned that they would have to take out the toilet to fit it in.  Since we wanted a new toilet anyway, my husband went out and purchased a new toilet while they were working.  They installed the new toilet (rather than putting the old one back in, so it wasn't extra work), but after they did that, they stood on the brand new toilet cover with work shoes and put scratch marks on the cover!     During the last meeting with the owner, my husband showed him and he said he would bring a new toilet cover the next day.  My husband told him no rush ... but it's been about six weeks now, and we haven't heard anything.  The last thing is that while I was taking a bath, I noticed that one of the tub joints under the faucet was not caulked.  My husband did it himself. Not sure if these problems happened because it was a small job and almost a losing prop for the company.  But, I'm asked all the time for references and we (and my family) do have a lot more work we would like done.  As friendly and easy the company/owner is to work with, I can't recommend them without the caveat that you might need to have someone handy to "finish up". "

Toilets questions, answered by experts

Hiring an emergency plumber is expensive because of the urgency and inconvenience, but there are a few things you can do to help keep costs down:

  • Minimize water damage by shutting off your water main 

  • Clean up pooling water immediately to reduce damage and mold growth

  • Avoid using fixtures if you have a clog or septic system backup

  • Verify that your plumber is licensed before hiring

  • Call a few plumbers for estimates if you can afford a short delay in getting service

Generally, toilet leaking is not an emergency unless the leakage is severe. However, any leakage at the bottom should be addressed as soon as possible because it could lead to water damage to the floors, under the tiles, or into the walls. Leaks at the bottom can also lead to mold growth if unaddressed.

A bit of water in the bowl can help unclog a toilet, especially if you're using a plunger. However, if the bowl is full to the brim, you'll need to strap on gloves and remove some of the wastewater in a cup or container so it doesn't overflow when you try to unblock the pipe. If you're concerned about it filling further, manually close the flapper in the toilet tank or turn off the water supply to the toilet.

A running toilet is not a plumbing emergency, but you will want to try some DIY fixes or call in a plumber to prevent wasting gallons of water. The three most common causes of a running toilet are a broken or dirty flapper, an incorrectly sized chain between the flush lever and flapper, or a float that is out of position.

Replacing a standard toilet with an elongated one is straightforward. The two types can be installed using the same existing drainpipe and plumbing. If you have a small bathroom, make sure that an elongated toilet doesn’t violate local building codes for clearance, which is the space between fixtures and walls.
