Brent is very pleasant to work with, and he was generous with his willingness to follow through with my requests on how to behave around the dogs that I work with. He not only followed my instructions but was careful to fill anyone else in who might be working with him that day. I trust Brent, I would never worry about leaving my home to him. He is concerned about the people he works with, and very much wants to complete a job to the satisfaction of the owner. I did not choose Brent to do the largest project only because of the many requirements of speciality workers needed to complete the job including site excavation, plumbing and septic work, electrical, fencing, as well as building. It was too large for a small business to try to complete in a short period of time but I do not doubt that Brent (given sufficient time) could have put together a group to do the job well. Brent s strongest attribute I believe is his ability to problem solve and create unique spaces. He thinks quickly and clearly spends time while away from the job thinking about the best way to go about a project or solve a problem "},"url":"https://www.angi.com/companylist/us/nh/plymouth/brent-harlow-designerbuilder-reviews-2058463.htm"},"position":7},{"@type":"ListItem","item":{"@type":"LocalBusiness","name":"Autowater Irrigation Co Inc","address":{"@type":"PostalAddress","addressRegion":"NH","addressCountry":"US"},"review":{"@type":"Review","author":{"@type":"Person","name":"Erin E."},"reviewBody":"The plumber was punctual and answered all of the questions I had.

The work that he did for this was poorly done. According to the contractor that replaced it, this was shoddy workmanship. Within days, the tile was shifting and the grout was coming out in chunks. I was told that this would be under warranty for a year, under state law. He sent his carpenter back 3 times to replace single tiles and re-do the grout. Finally after the third time, they were unprofessional and rude over the phone to me. They were not willing to work with me to solve the problem. I stopped speaking with him at this point, when I realized he wouldn't do anything. We found a contractor after a year, because of the issues, and they did the job the correct way. I was getting the run around from the contractor about where the tile was bought to replace. I finally was able to get more and was taken care of.

Plumbing Handymen questions, answered by experts
We highly recommend leaving the work of replacing drain pipes to a professional plumber. Drain pipes are a key part of your plumbing system, and making mistakes during the installation or even using the wrong size pipes for your specific fixture can lead to an elevated risk of leaks and clogs. Additionally, drain pipes prevent harmful sewer gas from entering your home, so hiring a professional plumber is essential to keeping the risk of leaks and clogs low and avoid reducing your indoor air quality.
Unfortunately, pipes can freeze when exposed to prolonged freezing temperatures, whether or not you have installed insulation covers. Insulation covers, however, are still an excellent idea as they can reduce the chance of your pipe freezing by keeping the pipes closer to the temperature of the water inside the pipe.
If the shut-off valve to your kitchen sink appears to be stuck or broken, there's no need to panic! The workaround is to turn off the main valve that supplies water to your entire household. This valve is located along the main water line. Of course, it's also important to have a plumber repair the malfunctioning shut-off valve under your kitchen sink because this indicates a problem.
A spigot and an outdoor faucet are essentially the same thing. Spigot is a catch-all that can describe any type of faucet or tap that controls water flow to an output like a garden hose or sink. There are different types of faucets and valves, with hose bibs being one of the most common in North American home exteriors.
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.
