"Robert Johnson Plumbing was excellent from beginning to end. Robert himself responded to my urgent Angi request within minutes on a Saturday, and they installed our new water heater Monday morning. His quote was less than half of what a large firm had quoted us. Robert took the time to explain our options rather than simply replacing our aging propane heater with the same thing. His recommendation led us to a hybrid electric water heater that is expected to reduce our yearly energy costs. Installation took about 3–4 hours with two plumbers and a contracted electrician. Everyone was helpful, respectful and professional, and they left the basement cleaner than they found it. They explained the new system and made sure I knew where to turn for future care and maintenance. Professional, kind and transparent throughout. I would absolutely recommend them."

"Will arrived first thing in the morning and thoroughly cleaned out my clogged kitchen pipe. The price quoted was the price charged. Completely cleaned the work area even though I told him not to worry, I would take care of it. I have some other projects that need repair/ installation. Sgt. Smith is now my'go to' plumber. Professional, polite, and knowledgeable. Thank you for such timely efficient service."

"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."

"I had a great experience with this plumber! He arrived right on time and was very professional and friendly from the start. I had a leak in the plumbing in the wall between the bathroom and the bedroom and he took the time to explain exactly was going on. He even went under the house (in the cold and dark) to inspect the issue further and took pictures so I could clearly see the problem myself. He explained the repair in a way that was easy to understand and fixed the leak quickly ad professionally. I really appreciated his honestly, communication and the quality of his work. Everything is working perfectly now! I definitely would recommend him and would happily call and refer him if I ever need a plumber's help!!"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

There are a few reasons why this could be the case. More than likely, your flapper is worn out and needs to be replaced. When it’s worn out, it lowers the water pressure during each flush leading to inefficient flushing. Luckily, replacing a toilet flapper is a simple repair that should only take about 30 minutes.

Yes, even though frost-free and freeze-proof faucets are designed to withstand winter weather, it is still recommended to cover them with an insulated cap, especially during periods of extreme cold. These faucets work by keeping excess water inside the home's heated space and using a downward slope to drain, but this protection can be compromised. For the faucet to work correctly, you must always disconnect any attached hoses before temperatures drop below freezing, as a hose can trap water and lead to freezing. Ultimately, covering all outdoor faucets, even freeze-proof models, is the best way to prevent frozen and burst pipes.

A cistern works by collecting rainwater from your gutters and downspouts and storing it in a holding tank. The holding tank can be installed above or below ground, and the size will depend on your household needs. The stored water can then be used for household tasks, watering your garden, and even for drinking water.

A back pressure valve is a control valve used on production vessels, such as separators, treaters, and free water knockouts. The valve holds pressure until a set point is reached, and then releases upstream pressure to reset. Back pressure valves are not safety mechanisms. Instead, they are regulators designed to keep the fluid, gas, or liquid mixture in a system at a certain pressure level to prevent bursts and other incidents.

Meanwhile, a backflow preventer is a safety mechanism that kicks in when the pressure has already failed and contaminated water flows in the reverse direction. Most backflow preventers consist of two one-way valves, or check valves assembled together. This design only allows water to pass through in one direction but not the other.

You can stop a leak with plumber’s tape, but it’s not a recommended way to repair a leak. To install it, you have to dismantle the plumbing connection, apply plumber’s tape, and then re-install the pieces. 

There are better options for a temporary fix for leaking pipes, such as repair sleeves, epoxy compounds, or pipe clamps.
