"Called today for a non-emergency service (no water leaks at the moment).  I scheduled an appointment for the following week.  A couple hours later they called and said they could come today.  Jason arrived a few minutes later.  He was very friendly and professional.  He reviewed the damage from the leak (we had turned off the water).  He was able to quickly determine the likely cause.  After making the fix he double checked to ensure the problem was fixed.  I really appreciated his expertise and ability to ensure the fix worked.  I also appreciated his friendly demeanor.
I have used Kirkwood Plumbing before and they will be the first for me to call.

"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!"

"Look no further if you’re looking for a new handy man for hire. Don with Super Handy Man is your guy. There were a few plumbing projects around my house that needed to be taken care of. After getting a few astronomical quotes from larger plumbing outfits, I decided to go the route of a handy man. Don with Super Handy Man, was the first to reach out. After a few conversations about the projects he was able to quote me a price that was very reasonable and affordable. We scheduled the work, he showed up on time, and did dang good job. He’s just as knowledgeable as he is a stand up guy. For future projects that are outside of my scope, I won’t hesitate to give Don a call."

"Overall the project went well, and we have a beautiful finished basement that we use for combine office / family space. They were very accommodating of changes in scope along the way, all while getting things complete on schedule. They were able to frame in around everything, keeping things as tight as possible to maximize the space, were able to have a plumber on site same day to move some piping when mine fell through, they sub contracted the electrical work. The project was not without bumps / changes, and no project of this size is (i assume). I think some of the problems could have been avoided with better communications and setting of expectations during the project, on both my part and theirs. At the end of the day, the basement looks great and we enjoy every moment down there. I would hire them again for my next project (and plan to)!"

"I had a severe plumbing problem. Mike was awesome he was here yesterday and I was not charged for the job because he couldn't get it unclogged. We scheduled for him to come back this morning. Gotta say amazing person. He unclogged from the stack and did the video process that needs to be sent in to the county. For the type of job he has, his sense of humor is fantastic. I did not feel that as a woman that he took advantage of my wallet. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND MIKE!!! Thank you for making my day!!!"

"Michael & Tommy did an excellent job. They showed up on time, worked very diligently and kept us informed every step of the way. The workmanship was top notch and our new walk in showers look and work fantastic. Best shower we’ve ever had! Mike and Tommy went out of their way to address every need and mission accomplished! Kudos to those gentleman as well as their support team. If you are looking at an upgrade to your bathroom, Jacuzzi is who I would recommend. Great job fellas! 5 out of 5 stars! *****"

Plumbing Handymen questions, answered by experts

Yes, and no. Your shower, toilet, and sink all connect to the same main drain, but the secondary drains going from each fixture to the main drain are usually separate. This isn’t always the case—especially in older homes—but since toilets contain black water and showers, tubs, and sinks have grey water, toilets are more regulated and come at a greater risk of contamination. It’s best to keep these drains separate using individual waste collection for this reason.

If you don’t want to remove the sink stopper, pour ½ cup of baking soda and 2 cups of boiling water down the drain. Start by pouring 1 cup of boiling water, then the baking soda, followed by the remaining cup of boiling water. Use caution as boiling water can damage PVC or other plastic piping. Using a scrub brush or slightly abrasive sponge, clean the top of the stopper, and run the faucet to ensure the drain is clear and the stopper is clean. 

A sewage ejector pump is necessary if you have any plumbing fixtures, such as a bathroom, laundry room, or sink, located below the level of your home's main sewer line. Standard plumbing relies on gravity to move wastewater and solid waste to the municipal sewer or septic tank. However, for fixtures located below grade (e.g., in a basement), gravity is not sufficient.

The purpose of a sewage ejector pump is to actively pump this wastewater and solid waste upward into the main sewer line. Without an ejector pump in this situation, wastewater would have no way to exit and would eventually back up, causing a sewage overflow or flooding in your basement. If all of your home's plumbing is on the main floor or higher, gravity can handle the drainage, and an ejector pump is not needed.

Main water shut-off valves last 10 to 20 years on average, though they can sometimes last longer. This depends in part on the material you choose. Brass valves are very durable, but more expensive bronze or stainless steel valves may last even longer. Main water shut-off valves often fail due to aging internal parts, such as rubber washers. However, corrosion and sediment buildup also contribute to valve failure. If purchasing a home at least 10 years old, you may want to replace the main water shut-off valve soon to avoid potential problems.

Yes, an ambitious homeowner could decide to replace their own toilet. A person attempting to do a DIY toilet installation should keep in mind that the average toilet weighs between 100 and 120 pounds. That means that you'll need to be comfortable lifting and carrying your old toilet and replacement toilet during both phases of the project. Additionally, homeowners will need to have basic plumbing knowledge to avoid plumbing problems that could result in messy, expensive water damage in their bathrooms. Hiring a plumbing pro from the get-go can help you avoid damaging your plumbing or your new toilet.
