"Fast, Clean, Efficient, Feasible! This is an easy review to write when you have a professional on the job. Titan Plumbing Sewer & Drain was on site ready to swap out our old tank and install the new one. Also, was aware of new housing codes and installed an Expansion Tank. He could of easily changed the thermocouple just to get by but did not recommend doing so on a 10+ unit. Do it right once and call Titan Plumbing Sewer & Drain. We were so happy with their service! Easy to recommend them"
"We have used Gene from Preferred Plumbing on several occasions. We had a water heater replaced and multiple faucets, hose bibs changed or repaired, and drain / sewer clogs. Gene was responsive, courteous, and explained the issue and required work clearly. The work was completed without issues and reasonably priced. I recommend Gene (Preferred Plumbing) for any plumbing issues / work."
"George was fantastic ! Extremely professional, extremely knowledgeable, personable, and reasonably priced. Donâ t look any further! Will definitely be calling George for all future plumbing needs!"
"Mo was absolutely amazing. Possibly the best contractor I have ever hired. Had a situation with a clog in my main sewer line and he was extremely quick to respond. Even before arriving at the house he did a FaceTime to diagnose the situation and give me peace of mind. He moved his schedule around to come first thing in the morning the next day and his customer service throughout was great. He walked me through everything that he was doing and gave me counsel on how to avoid situations in the future along with different options. Saved his number because I will absolutely use 123 Sewage again!"
"Needed leaky water valve repaired and sewer system unclogged. Came within 45 minutes of my desperate phone call. Installed new valve and new copper piping. Could not flush clog from inside, so came next day and dug 7' hole in front garden to remove the clog. Also installed vertical pipe to access any future sewer problems. Work crew had to dig out two big bushes to access the old sewer pipe at my home's foundation but replanted them along with any tulip bulbs they displaced. Truely considerate of my early spring garden! Courteous, mindful of property, work done in a timely fashion at a fair price. Explained each step in the process and why it was needful. Very pleased with 'Moose' and his work team."
"I recently had plumbing work done and had the pleasure of working with Gashi. He was incredibly kind, respectful, and thoughtful throughout the entire process. Although the project turned out to be more extensive and needed to be escalated, Gashi handled his part with great professionalism and care. He took the time to explain things clearly and made sure everything was left tidy. I truly appreciated his friendly attitude and attention to detail. Highly recommend Gashi for anyone looking for reliable and considerate plumbing service."
"Fred responded very quickly to our call. Was most accommodating as our problem required immediate attention. Great job. Good service. Will call again for plumbing issues."
Yes, shower water goes into the septic tank. Shower water is a type of greywater, and in fact, all water used in a home with a septic system—including water from sinks, toilets, the dishwasher, and the washing machine—drains into the tank. When shower water enters the tank, debris like soap and hair travels with it. The solid debris sinks to the bottom to become sludge, while soap residue joins the scum layer at the top. The remaining water is treated in the tank before moving to the drain field for further treatment and dispersal. It is important to avoid putting oil or harsh chemicals down any drain, as they can cause clogs or disrupt the beneficial bacteria required for proper wastewater management in the septic system.
In the best-case scenario, the pipe size is written on the side of the pipe. You’ll often find this with different types of plastic piping like PVC, PEX, or CPVC. For other types of pipes, you’ll have to measure. You can measure the outside circumference with a soft tape measure, then divide your measurement by pi. From there, you’ll have to use a conversion chart to get the nominal pipe size (the size you’d buy in the store).
Yes, hydro jetting can potentially damage pipes, particularly if they are old or weakened. The high-pressure water can be too abrasive for fragile pipes, potentially causing cracks or breaks. For this reason, it is highly recommended to have a professional evaluate the condition of your pipes before the procedure. However, for newer pipes made from materials like PVC, which is common for sewer lines, hydro jetting is generally considered safe.
Yes, you can technically use a utility knife or straight blade to cut through PEX pipe. However, this isn't an ideal method simply because you won't get the same clean cut that you'll get with a pipe cutter. A utility knife will likely create angles that weaken your push connections. If you use a utility knife, score the pipe with the knife along your marked line several times before making your final cut.
Soda, coffee, and other soft drinks are highly acidic. This affects the pH in septic tanks, causing them to require more frequent pumping. However, a vast majority of people don't need to worry about septic system disruption. Pouring out the occasional flat soda doesn’t affect septic systems to the same degree as the high-volume dumping from restaurants and convenience stores.
