"Jason and James were complete professionals. They ran into some interesting issues in my 85 year old home, with much original plumbing. Nothing got in their way of leaving me with a beautiful shower/tub. And they left the worksite spotless. Thanks guys,,"
"Extremely pleasant to talk to! I didn’t realize my husband had already booked someone else for the job, but I truly appreciated how responsive and professional Haines Drains and Plumbing was. I will definitely be contacting them for any future plumbing needs—they’re reliable and a pleasure to work with!"

"We had a bathtub converted into a Shower, they removed the old bathtub and installed a shower tray with a wall lining system unique to their company called Re-Bath. They also removed an old single person shower and installed a linen closet, new ceramic tile floor with a heating element (heated floor with thermostat and timer). New Mirrors, new lights and new solid surface counter top with integrated bowls and new faucets. Rerouted plumbing and minor electrcal work. The 2 installers Ryan and Ken were fantastic, their work was very good, they kept the house clean during the whole process and made sure everything was clean at the end of every day. They took the time to explain how everything new they installed worked, very thorough and very professional. They arrived everyday when they said they were going to arrive and kept us updated with the progress throughout the process. I would definitely use this company again."
"although it took almost 15 weeks between the order and the installation, it was worth the wait. We had a wall surround and tub liner along with new plumbing fixtures. I am very happy with the product and the workmanship. The installation took two days but the installer was thorough and meticulous. Wish I had done this sooner."

It can be helpful to open one or two faucets before turning on the water main again. Turning off the main shut-off valve will introduce some air into your pipes. Having at least one faucet open should allow the air to clear as the water refills the pipes. Try to open faucets far from the main shut-off valve and on the highest floor of the house.
You will need a plumber to install a kitchen faucet if your installation requires modifications to your plumbing system. However, if none of these modifications are needed, a faucet installation pro can do the job. In a pinch, you can also outsource the project to a handyperson or simply go the DIY route.

While you can put Drano in a sink with standing water, most plumbers don’t recommend doing so. It usually doesn’t help to clear the clog, and you’ll end up with a sink full of standing water plus a toxic chemical—which is very unpleasant to deal with and best handled by a professional.
Because well water is not artificially filtered or pre-treated, it may contain contaminants. As a result, it’s possible for well water to damage pipes based on what is in the water. Well water can be corrosive, slowly rusting and dissolving pipes, fixtures, and fittings. The corrosion can affect the taste and quality of the drinking water that comes out of the taps in your home.
