"In searching for someone to install my hot water heater Mr. Medlin was the first to return my call, almost immediately after submitting my estimate request. After discussing the service and price, a date for install was set. And it was sooner than I expected but was glad about the availability. Mr. Medlin was promp courteous very reasonable in price.

"I called on Sunday thinking they would call me Monday morning. Within an hour of my call they called me back. I told her we had water all over our living room and kitchen floor. She said do you want someone to come now. I said in the morning would be fine. They showed right on time and quickly found that the water supply line to our refrigerator was leaking. They also recommended United Water Restoration Group for the water remediation. There was no charge for the visit."

"Five Star Bath is an excellent company. Their design consultant was very informative and they have a proprietary product that is sleek, but also durable. Our tub to shower conversion was clean and seamless. Kirk and team communicated well are excellent install techs. Additionally they were much more competitive from a pricing perspective than all of the larger companies."

Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts

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.

You can use a water leak microphone to find an underground leak in your irrigation system. To do this, shut off the water to your system. Then, grab your sprinkler system’s map to get acquainted with the locations of your sprinkler heads, valve boxes, and water lines. Walk around these areas, waving the microphone’s sensory rod near the ground to detect the sound of water moving through your system.

If your pipes are newly installed, or you recently had plumbing work done, it's normal to have some air in the pipes, which will likely work its way out naturally after using the plumbing a few times. But if you continually hear banging or gurgling due to air bubbles, you might have an air leak, which is best addressed by a plumber. 

You should flush your water heater at least once a year, with some experts recommending a schedule of every six to 12 months (e.g., once in the spring and fall). The ideal frequency depends on several factors.

If your area has hard water with high mineral concentrations, you should flush the heater more often—typically every four to six months. Additionally, a water heater that is used frequently may require more frequent flushing than one that is used less often.

Regular flushing is important because it removes sediment buildup from the bottom of the tank. This maintenance helps improve the heater's efficiency, extend its lifespan, and prevent issues like clogs, overheating, and increased energy consumption. You can either learn to perform this task yourself or arrange for a service plan with a professional plumber.

To file a claim against a plumber, you’ll need to contact their liability insurance company. You can ask your plumber for information about their insurer, or you can refer to the documentation you collected before you hired them. Let the company know you need to file a claim, and they’ll provide you with the next steps. Alternatively, you can ask your homeowner’s insurance company to help you file.
