"Robert was simply amazing. I really canâ t say enough good things about his professionalism, speed or results. Our water heater busted and 5 days without hot water as a paramedic during covid, was difficult. We also have a young child. We were getting desperate. Robert was prompt in response he got back to me so quickly. He was at my house within an hour after we spoke and we had hot water 3 hours later! His price was affordable for us as money is very tight. He even texted me, knowing I had to manage all this while on shift, with a picture of the finished product. I can not say Thankyou enough for being able to come home the next morning to a hot shower and functioning washing machine. He will be the first person I recommend to friends, family, coworkers and random strangers. Again THANK YOU."

"Dustin was excellent. Showed up on time and was extremely professional. He fixed what was broken, hooked up what needed to be hooked up and got my kitchen and shower running beautifully. He didn't try to upsell or convince me to replace things that didn't need fixing or replacing. I have definitely found my new plumber! Would strongly recommend."

"The owner clearly values quality work and excellent customer service. The materials are high quality and beautiful. The project met our need for a step in shower to replace a shower/tub combination. We not only feel safer using this shower but enjoy it's beauty. Installation happened on the date we agreed to and was completed in one day. Highly recommend this business."

"Colin did a great job for me. He was there when he said he would be, looked at the job and explained what needed to be done. He started it when he said he would and finished in the time he said it would probably take. He also did a great job cleaning up afterwards. Nothing was left for me to do! I was completely satisfied and would absolutely hire Colin again for any plumbing needs. Bourne Family Plumbing is the type of plumber that everyone should have!"

"Wonderful service from Adam! My water heater was struggling to keep up with my wife?s long showers - which by the way she heats them up hot as hell! ? Besides the point, Adam recommended sizing up the water heater in order to keep up with the demands of some crazy hot water. Incredibly fast installation process and Adam was really friendly. I would definitely recommend him to all my friends who are looking for a plumber. You should certainly give him a call!"

Affordable Plumbers FAQs, answered by experts

Hiring an experienced plumber is key to a successful plumbing project and protecting your home from potential damages. Improper plumbing maintenance and repairs can lead to problems with sewage, flooding, your home’s foundation, and more. The work of a licensed plumber helps guarantee not only experience and expertise but also quality work, insurance, and adherence to local rules and regulations. Note that working with unlicensed plumbers doesn't automatically negate experience—as six states don’t require plumbers to have licenses— but it’s a safeguard to consider. 

If you’ve accessed the bolts and nuts that hold your toilet seat in place and can’t unscrew them, it’s possible that they were overtightened or that the material corroded over time, making it impossible to unscrew. If that’s the case, you can either call in a plumber for help, or you can DIY a solution if you’re careful. Lay down masking tape around the mounting bracket and then use the tape as a surface to lay a hack saw blade. Move slowly to cut through the bracket and bolt, being careful not to damage the porcelain in the process.

Basement toilets don’t always need a pump. However, it is the most common setup because plumbing systems use gravity to move waste away from the home. Basement toilets often sit below the home’s main sewage system, and installing a sewage ejector pump pushes the wastewater and sewage up to the main sewer line. Alternatively, you can use an upflush or macerator toilet that breaks down the waste and pushes it straight to the main sewer line rather than via a sewer line from the bathroom.

Applying drain cleaner is a common DIY solution to clogged drains, but it can be extremely harmful to your pipes and lead to corrosion and leaks. It is almost always better to try snaking a clog than using a drain cleaner, but the best solution is to hire a professional plumber. They can locate the clog and gauge the severity using a camera system and then decide if using a plumber’s snake, auger, or drain cleaner is the best option to remove the clog and limit damage to your plumbing system.

PEX pipe is safe for drinking water, though it wasn't always. PEX was introduced in European water supply systems in the 1980s, but early versions of the piping deteriorated when exposed to the higher chlorine levels in U.S. water supplies. Antioxidants were added to PEX piping to meet U.S. potable drinking water standards. Today, it’s commonly used for drinking water.
