"Lucas was very professional, extremely friendly, very thorough in his job. Did a great job made sure I was happy. Haul the old water heater away. I was so pleased he's coming back to replumb my sump pump lines. Would not hesitate to call him for any plumbing jobs. Oh yea he put in new sink faucets too great shop of guys"
"No nonsense, had a very straightforward approach and I really liked that. We even had some plumbing issues and they didnâ t charge us extra to complete."
"Mark and his crew were very professional, knowledgeable, and friendly. We bought the wrong sized product but they were able to create the perfect bathtub and shower. In addition, I was impressed with the daily cleanup. No messes left behind. Mark and his crew also installed 3 ceiling fans and did additional plumbing. I am planning on having them come back for additional upgrades."
"David went above and beyond his job duties to help me; I ve just moved here from Texas to discover a moldy basement. Not only did he do thorough testing, he provided support by contacting locals who provide honest, safe rental properties..helping me to find a new, safe place to live."
"I hired Neli over a week period for 3 different appliances, my dryer, washing machine, dishwasher, and even kitchen sink! I had a fantastic experience: 1. I fixed my dryer with Thomas' excellent remote guidance, changing the timer and the switch! Fabulous guidance Thomas, with lots of money saved! I learned a lot in the process. 2. I determined that there was no dishwasher leak and in the process learned how to check for leaks and trouble shoot for some common repair issues. It cost $40.00 but as I had some water on the floor, I was ready to get a new dishwasher. Now, I am confident that it wasn't a leak and caused by putting in the dishes in a funny manner and not a repair issue. I am using the dishwasher now again with no problem. 3. I determined with Thomas' help that the washing machine had a major problem and could have spun out of control into my wall....no question, it was time to get a new washing machine! This was a well spent $40.00--I even got Thomas advice on purchasing a new washing machine and what to look for. 4. I checked the drainage on my kitchen sink and learned how to empty out the "trap" and that most likely, I am okay, but what to swap out if I have continuing issues with slow drainage. In the end, I saved lots of money, gaining and learning valuable experience! Absolutely fabulous service!"
"I recently and foundation channel installation and basement waterproofing. From my inspector, Shawn, to my work crewJeremy, Josh and Jacob - I had nothing but excellent work and wonderful customer service.

"My husband and I feel lucky to have picked Harris Renovations for our remodeling projects. From the first meeting to the completed project, we were impressed with their professional and friendly manner. Casey and his brother worked to perfection in every aspect of the remodeling. Windy proved to also be an invaluable asset. She was always there to answer questions and guide us through the many choices. The completed result was even better than we had anticipated. We love our new kitchen and bathroom and highly recommend Harris Renovations."
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.
In most cases, you can’t connect to an existing sewer line, but this is specific to new builds and additions. For example, if you add on to a home or build an ADU, you'll likely have to install an entirely new sewer line. In most places, connecting new lines to an existing line is not up to code. As such, most new home builds or additions will require proposals for an entirely new line from the construction site to the sewer.
You’ll likely pay between $300 and $450 to unclog your toilet with Roto-Rooter. However, the price could change depending on if the clog has caused a lot of damage, which your plumbing pro will want to inspect during your service appointment. Keep in mind that you won’t get a quote from Roto-Rooter over the phone. They have to send a pro out for an in-person cost estimate. You can also attempt to snake your own clog for a lot less, and simple drain snakes cost no more than $50.
A well-installed wall-mounted faucet shouldn’t splash. That’s why it’s worth hiring someone with experience installing wall-mounted faucets. Beyond the installation, you should carefully choose the right faucet and sink combination. If your sink splashes after installation, you can try installing an aerator, which lowers the amount of water coming out of the faucet.
To keep your toilet from clogging, you can use less toilet paper. You can also use a liquid toilet plunger to break up any clogs and keep the toilet drain and pipes clear. When it comes to a clogged toilet, the best route is prevention by using less toilet paper and making sure the mechanisms are all working properly.
