"The people on the phone and the workers that worked at my house were fantastic. Damien and Ernest were the installer's top rate people. Jack, their license plumber was polite and funny. The only person we didn't care for was Keith He only stopped by to look at what was going on. He was a little rude to my wife and Made her feel Like she was second class in her own home. We Were very shocked by that. We would definitely recommend Jacuzzi to our friends."

"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!"

"It was great. We just haven't done anything at all with it. The responsiveness of the guy was very good. I think it was just not quite what we were looking for. It wasn't that their price was really high. I think it was just the price that we decided. Instead of just redoing the whole thing. we decided to do a fraction of it. The quote was about $5000. Their professionalism is great. We just need the plumbing redone and then that little section re-tiled. I don't think they would do just a little bit. With ReBath, they do the whole system."

"Fast professional and friendly. Spot on when it came to the estimate all the way around. Job site was clean and looked better than it ever did before Buxton started the job. We would recommend Buxton waterproofing every time! Raymond Buxton is what I would call an honest hard working family man, he treats you like a family member! Kind of a Jack of all trades!!"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

A successful plumbing project in MO features a closed permit and proper documentation from your licensed contractor. Inspect the physical work to ensure pipes have proper support hangers and lack any moisture or discoloration at the joints after a month. For homes on well water, verify that the water pressure reads between 40 and 80 PSI. Finally, confirm that all exterior wall penetrations feature tight seals against freezing winter drafts.

Helpful?

Select PEX tubing for your plumbing updates in Salem. PEX perfectly handles the moderate mineral hardness of the local water supply by resisting internal scale buildup. Furthermore, PEX expands slightly under pressure, making it highly resilient against freezing winter temperatures in unheated crawl spaces. While copper remains a durable option, avoid using CPVC in unconditioned areas, as it becomes brittle and breaks during harsh cold snaps.

Helpful?

When planning plumbing projects in Salem, prepare for unexpected issues behind older walls. You will find corroded galvanized steel pipes that require extensive replacement. If your property relies on a private well or septic system, excavation exposes failing pressure tanks or drain field issues. Additionally, digging through the rocky Ozark soil requires specialized equipment, and spring renovations uncover hidden frost damage from freezing winter temperatures.

Helpful?

You should combine plumbing updates with electrical and insulation improvements when opening walls in older Salem homes. Upgrading these systems simultaneously minimizes drywall patching and streamlines your renovation timeline. If you replace your water heater, schedule an HVAC inspection to assess your shared gas lines and venting. However, avoid adding unnecessary well pump repairs to your project, as expanding the scope triggers extensive delays and additional permit requirements.

Helpful?

Turning your heat completely off during winter trips causes severe frozen plumbing damage in MO homes. You must also disconnect all outdoor hose bibs before the first freeze hits. Inside the house, running your water heater above 140 degrees accelerates mineral scale buildup from the moderately hard local water. For rural properties, parking vehicles over your septic drain field severely compresses the soil and cracks your underground drain lines.
