"I would recommend Warren and his company to anyone in need of work done. His team replaced my old, one-piece shower with an amazing new shower, complete with all the bells and whistles. Warren was honest, straightforward, and efficient. Other companies wanted to jerk me around and squeeze all the money out of me that they could. This company gave me everything I wanted, and at a very affordable price. I feel very lucky to have found 592 Properties & Construction, LLC."

"G & E Plumbing was an absolute lifesaver. Our previous plumber left the job in terrible shape, with a mountain of work left to do and plenty that had to be redone. Gerardo, the owner, came out and did the work himself. He rectified problem after problem, from toilet flanges to two improvised P-traps with AAV vents under sinks caused by rough-in installed in the wrong place. His problem-solving got us to code and through inspection on the first pass. His communication is excellent. He shows up on time and works fast. This is the guy you want on speed dial, whether it's an emergency repair or rough-in and finish trim done properly. No cutting corners. I know this because he came in specifically to fix the work of someone who did. He caught issues I had no idea about, and he knows the code inside and out. He's friendly, kind, and he'll travel. We're in Asheville, NC (Buncombe County). Best plumbing experience I've ever had, hands down. Gerardo and G & E will be our plumbers for life."

"Overall the tub removal and shower install was great. The installers did a great job. There was a miss on the sales reps side. We picked the subway tile with black grout and we got the subway tile with white grout. We checked back on the sales sheet and the mistake was there, so we have to own the mistake. However, we were talking to the rep about the black grout and he even made a comment about it as well. We made an assumption that everything was put in correctly and that’s on us. Even with that, the shower looks great and the guys doing the installation did a great job."

"James Cress Jr Water Pump Company came out to check my well and give me an estimate on work to be performed. He was punctual with his appointment with me. He replaced my pump in the well and I am one satisfied customer. I will call him again. I will be referring him to family and friends. I was satisfied with the hob and the cost was reasonable."

"I recently had my shower remodeled by House Pro and I couldn't be happier with the results. From start to finish, the entire process was seamless and stress-free. Crystal was extremely professional and knowledgeable, providing great design ideas and suggestions that truly transformed my outdated shower into a beautiful and modern space. The quality of workmanship was top-notch and the attention to detail was impeccable. The team was efficient, respectful of my home, and completed the project in a timely manner. I was kept informed every step of the way and any questions or concerns I had were addressed promptly. Overall, I am extremely satisfied with the outcome of my shower remodel and would highly recommend House Pro and Crystal and her team to anyone looking to renovate their bathroom or other house repairs. Thank you all! For a job well done!"

Plumbing FAQs, answered by experts

Yes, a skilled plumber can thaw frozen pipes, and it is recommended to hire a professional rather than attempting a DIY fix. A plumber will typically start by investigating your plumbing to locate the frozen areas. They then use professional equipment, such as a heat gun, to safely thaw the affected pipes. If a pipe has already burst or developed leaks, the plumber can make the necessary repairs. For homes with frequently frozen pipes, a plumber can also suggest preventative measures like improving pipe insulation or rerouting lines away from areas prone to freezing.

No, vinegar won't hurt PVC pipes. While vinegar is acidic, it’s not caustic enough to damage PVC. Pouring baking soda and vinegar down your drains is a great DIY solution for clearing minor clogs. If the problem isn’t resolved with vinegar and baking soda, it’s likely time to call in a pro. Avoid using more caustic solutions like drain cleaners, as these will damage PVC pipes, especially if there’s a clog.

Toilet handles can get stuck for a couple of reasons, but it’s commonly an issue with the chain. Remove the lid and check the chain’s connection, running from the flapper to the handle arm. Sometimes the chain gets snagged on or against another part of the tank. 

The chain might not have the right tension. For example, a chain that’s too short can make the handle feel stuck. Check that there’s some slack in the chain. Old, worn-out flappers can get stuck, too. In this case, you’ll need to see which size toilet flapper you need.

The best types of piping for underground main water lines are PVC and PEX pipes because of their ability to be buried and withstand high levels of water pressure. PVC and PEX pipes are resistant to rusting and corrosion, which makes them ideal for transporting water. Copper is another efficient type of pipe for underground water lines because of their resistance to rusting and leakage. Again, copper pipes are on the higher end of the price range.

A standard toilet flange should fit snugly into the outflow pipe and sit level with the subfloor. Installing a new one without first removing the old one will make it impossible to form a seal and keep the toilet bowl bolted securely in place. 

However, if you’re dealing with leakage or wobbling because you’ve installed a new type of bathroom tile (making the floor taller), you may be able to avoid fully replacing the flange by opting for a toilet flange extender. Extenders typically come in kits for easy DIY installation, fit over the existing flange, and bring the drain connection higher.
