"The service from the response from the initial call to the finished work was the best. It was the first time I used them and they are now my plumber and have recommended them to others"
"Kirkwood Plumbing was very responsive, sending a highly qualified technician within 24-hours. He did an incredible job replacing old cast stacks and vents to our 2nd floor bath. The further comment that I would make is they are not cheap. I'm still trying to reconcile their cost for a 7-8 hour job, but the results couldn't be better."
"I can t say enough great things about Hosack Plumbing and Excavation. They just completed replacing the main water line from our home to the street. Their work is excellent, they completely explain what they are doing and make you feel very comfortable and when the work is completed everything is neat and clean and back to its original state. Their pricing was very fair and they were professional and friendly."
"MH Contracting is absolutely top notch! I cannot nor would not think of hiring anybody else for any of my needs at my home. My wife and I wanted to make our basement into a master suite with a large master bathroom and large walk in closet. We contacted Home Advisor which then put us in touch with several companies. MH Contracting was without fail, the best choice. After meeting with all of the companies and comparing bids, we knew that Mike and MH Contracting was the way to go. We had grand plans but were not sure that we could afford to do everything at once. We needed to start with adding an egress window to the basement. Their quote was right within our budget. Mike helped take our basement from an in home office to a wonderful paradise. My wife and I must have changed our plans at least 10 times during the process. Each time Mike and Scott said ������������������������ no problem������������������������. We went from planning a 65 sq ft bathroom to over a 220 sq ft bathroom with an additional walk in closet at another 120 sq ft. This does not even include the master bedroom. From the beautiful walk in shower, 72������������������������ soaker tub, tv mounted above the tub to the heated floors, everything has turned out perfectly. Both Mike and Scott are very scrupulous about every aspect of what they do. Then we decided to take down a wall between our twin������������������������s bedrooms to make one large room. You can������������������������t even tell where the wall was. Their drywall work is amazing. They showed up on time, worked a full day and cleaned up every single day they were here. We trusted them from the beginning. We gave them the alarm code and access to the house exclusively. They even worked while our 13yr old twins were home over spring break. Never a trust issue and that������������������������s hard to come by now a days. Our project took about 2 months from start to finish. I������������������������ve already had Mike and crew out to my father in laws house for some electrical work and to my daughter������������������������s house to work up a quote for all new windows and some much needed concrete repair issues. I can������������������������t wait for our next project to be planned."
"Estimate and service were completed quickly. Price seemed very fair and was less than estimated. Work was high quality. Office team and plumber was very easy to work with. I would highly recommend."
"I hired this company to extend the natural gas in my house and would definitely recommend them. I felt that the plumber who did the installation really knew what he was doing and seemed like a great guy. The installation went well and the price was fair."
Replacing cast iron pipes when they’ve reached the end of their life span is key to preventing leaks and clogs. Over time, cast iron pipes corrode and experience pipe scale, which thickens the inside of the walls and increases the chance of clogs while also decreasing water flow. As the material deteriorates, you could experience costly leaks that increase reparation expenses.
Cast iron can last between 50 and 75 years, but it’s still a good idea to check for leaks as your pipes approach the 25-year mark, as pipes can already show signs of deterioration within the first three decades.
Yes, you can use your steam shower to take regular showers and steam showers. Many people opt to use a regular shower daily while using the steam shower less frequently when they have more time. Keep in mind that after you take a steam shower you’ll need to run the fan longer than after regular showers to avoid mold and mildew growth. You’ll also need to clean your shower more often if you’re using the steam function.
If there's no water coming out of the spigot, or barely any water, you might have a clogged water line. Areas with hard water are prone to this problem because the high mineral content in hard water causes build-up in pipes and water lines. This constricts the water flow and causes water to slowly trickle out, if at all.
While there is no specific “best” method to clear hair out of a drain, several options work well. Using a combination of baking soda and vinegar to dissolve the hair clog is a great and easy way to help clear the drain. Drain snakes are also effective for more severe clog buildups.
Ever wonder what might cause your outdoor spigot to lose water flow? It's not as complicated as one might think. Something as simple as a clogged or leaky pipe could be the culprit. Some other causes are corrosion of the pipes or lack of water pressure coming from your street.
