"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,,"

"Jake B. came to our house to do a full evaluation of our crawlspace. He took measurements of the humidity and moisture levels of our wood which he shared with us along with photos of all of the areas of our crawl space. He did an amazing job showing us the issues with our crawl space, explaining the detrimental effects to our home and health, and presented us a comprehensive solution to encapsulate and insulate our crawl space. I had a list of questions that I didn't even have to ask because Jake had answered all of them during his presentation. He answered the additional questions that I had and shared a number of options for paying for the encapsulation, including one that would give us a discount. I was pleased to hear about the warranties and annual inspections that will provide peace of mind that our crawl space will be dry and mold free, in the years to come, after they have completed the encapsulation. Jake was a pleasure to work with and we were happy to sign with Groundworks."

"Excellent service and quality installation. Totally clean install and done in 3 days as it was an oversize area. They were creative in filling in the extra area with a counter. The crew was delightful, quiet and respectful. I highly recommend American Standard Walk-In Tubs!"

Customers say: True professional

"Dave, once again, did a fantastic job. I live in a small old, old house and he tackled all the problems that come with working on a house that is tight on space and just plain crooked with ease. He's great at answering questions and trying to help you find solutions to problems that aren't even on his list of "to-dos". He doesn't just care about getting the job done he cares about the person or family in the home as if it was his own family. If you are looking to renovate a preexisting space, Diamondwood is your team."

Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts

A back pressure valve is a control valve used on production vessels, such as separators, treaters, and free water knockouts. The valve holds pressure until a set point is reached, and then releases upstream pressure to reset. Back pressure valves are not safety mechanisms. Instead, they are regulators designed to keep the fluid, gas, or liquid mixture in a system at a certain pressure level to prevent bursts and other incidents.

Meanwhile, a backflow preventer is a safety mechanism that kicks in when the pressure has already failed and contaminated water flows in the reverse direction. Most backflow preventers consist of two one-way valves, or check valves assembled together. This design only allows water to pass through in one direction but not the other.

Yes. You can replace just the stopper portion with a universal sink stopper. All you need to do is open up the existing stopper and pull it up from the drain. You should be able to remove and replace the stopper with bare hands. If the existing stopper seems to be stuck, use a pair of pliers to remove it.

Flushing the toilet only to realize it’s clogged can cause anxiety. To avoid a clogged toilet, use less toilet paper. If you notice that the toilet is flushing and refilling slower than usual, you can use a plunger to clear clogs in the S-trap. If that doesn’t work, call a plumber to check your system and possibly clear the drain lines.

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

Repairing a bathroom leak costs an average of $280, but shower and tub leaks can cost up to $500, depending on the issue. Ongoing leaks behind or under your tub can lead to mold growth, wood rot, and hidden water damage in your bathroom, so if your leak has been going on for a while, you could pay several thousand dollars to remove the tub and address the damage underneath.
