"Could not have been better. Ran into a scheduling issue with another plumber. Called Kirkwood Plumbing on Monday, they were able to schedule us for the next day. Gave them the info from the original plumber's proposal and they agreed to match the cost and work. Plumber was running late due to very heavy traffic. Called 45 minutes before the scheduled appointment to let us know he might be a little late. Arrived only 10 to 15 minutes late, which was fine with us since he had called. Got right to work and finished within a few hours."
"Great. He is very honest, quick and does a terrific job. I have used Ambassadors Plumbing at my business and personally. He does his utmost best to get you the best deal, while always keeping safety and efficiency in mind."
"The plumber came in and did an excellent job. Knew exactly what needed to be done. Got right on it and finished it up efficiently and professionally. I would hire them again without any hesitation. Quality work from a quality company."
"Maplewood Plumbing was the 2nd company I called to replace a garbage disposal after the first company was blatantly trying to rip me off. The plumber they sent was on time, friendly, honest (he didn't try to upsell me models) and was less than a third the price of the 1st company I had called. Thankful for a company I can trust, I will absolutely use them again in the future!"
"Don was very professional and affordable. He finished my water pressure regulator and new faucet in under an hour. My only complaint is that the drain for my sink he worked on has been leaking for over a week and he hasn't come back out to look at it. Aside from that, I'm very happy with Don's work and will hire him for more projects in the future."
"The company was Professional and the plumber was friendly and listened to all my concerns. Dwayne explained everything he was doing and his findings to me."
"Excellent customer service! The team was efficient, responsive, and professional. I was very much in need of a bathroom remodel, due to a deteriorating floor. The product quality is excellent and exceeded the remodel.
Very reasonable pricing!
I highly recommend Romine Contracting LLC!!!"
Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts
The most common places for water leaks in a home are the fixtures we use most often: the kitchen and bathroom sinks, the showerhead, and the toilet. These components all contain moving parts and O-rings that prevent water from flowing through when the fixtures are shut off, and these can wear down over time and lead to minor drips or significant leaks. You can sometimes employ a DIY solution to replace aerators or faucet O-rings that could be causing the leak, but it’s usually best to call in a professional for a permanent fix.
The best drain cleaners are biodegradable ones or a mixture of baking soda and vinegar. Strong, caustic chemicals may seem appealing with promises of unclogging your drain quickly, but liquid drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes over time. Consider making your own drain cleaner with baking soda and vinegar.
Water pipes will unfreeze once temperatures stay above freezing long enough to thaw. As things warm up, you might hear gurgling and banging sounds from the pipes. It can take a while for the pipes to unfreeze, and they won’t without help if temperatures stay below freezing. Open cupboard doors, turn up the heat, and get out hair dryers, heat guns, space heaters, and heat lamps to speed up the thawing process. If you live where it’s frequently below freezing, consider whether pipe insulation is worth installing.
The size of the pipe you use for your shower depends on the part of the shower you’re installing. Shower drainpipes have a 2-inch diameter, and the water supply lines (both hot and cold) have a ½-inch diameter. You may want to slightly increase the size of the vertical pipe if you have dual showerheads. Check the local building code prior to installation for guidance.
The most common reasons a toilet won’t stop running are a faulty flapper or fill valve, improper fill height, or incorrect chain length. Luckily, all these issues are relatively easy to fix with parts you can find at a local hardware store. You can also call a plumber or toilet repair professional to solve the problem.
