"Background: 
This is my 5th home and I have had remodeling projects in the past. In this case the remodel was isolated to the kitchen and one bedroom that we wanted a shower installed. In addition we were considering removing carpet from 2 bedrooms and replacing with tile. Babcock Construction is a family owned business started in 1968 and together with the founder, his 3 sons are involved in the business as both craftsman and the business end. They have a conveniently located office/shop in Santa Fe. It is difficult not to be impressed with their facility. It is large, clean and contains many sub shops for cabinet making, carpentry and other typical construction type shops. The difference to others I have seen is the appearance as everything is spotlessly clean and organized. That impressed me as an introduction to the company. When they arrived for the  estimate, all of the company brothers and their father arrived and they provided their vision based on a brief outline of what I was looking for. I was immediately impressed with what they were saying and more importantly, how they would do the work. They have various craftsman on staff with the exception of plumbers and electricians however; they have vetted through the years several of each and Babcock had them come to the house for an estimate.  
Responsiveness: 
At all stages, they were available to answer any questions. This included weekends or evening hours. One of the sons (Steve) was designated as the site foreman and he was there every day overseeing and applying his trade for both detailed tile work, painting, carpentry and refinishing several doors. Early on it became apparent that based on what I was seeing, I wanted to add to my initial project. Steve would tell me what could be done, provide an estimate (after consultation with his brother Richard) and leave it at that. There was never any encouragement or pressure from Babcock to have them perform the additional work.  
Quality:
The quality is unlike any contractor I have used in the past. Their attention to detail is nothing short of remarkable. They moved and covered furniture each time it was needed. With any construction project dust and debris are inherent. They did their level best to mitigate this issue everyday. At the conclusion of each workday, they were very thorough in cleaning up their specific location that had been worked on that day and neatly put away their tools in the designated area (garage). Never did I arrive home to find a "mess". 
Dependability:
The crew arrived each morning without fail at 7:30AM. There was a minimum of 3 workers but often times up to 5. They actually worked on a federal holiday. At the end of each day I was given an update on what had been accomplished and the schedule for the next day or beyond in some cases. 
Professionalism:
Without exception all of the craftsman maintained the highest level of professionalism that I have seen on any construction site. These folks went out of their way to make sure I was satisfied in all that they did which included asking how I liked the progress, recently completed job and many other items of interest to me. 
Price:
Being somewhat of a "miser" I was always on top of the price for each project be it the base contract or the many add ons that I contracted for. In the end, the "you get what you pay for" axiom proved to be true. Never did I feel I was charged more than was reasonable. 
Summary:
Babcock provided a detailed professional result while keeping the customers needs at the forefront of all that they did. Their degree of professional service is above reproach. The quality I am convinced, can not be overstated. The bottom line is that you can not go wrong contracting with them. You will find customer service, communication and quality is at the top of the list in all that they do.

"Philip York is a great handyman, a jack of all trades if you will. He's done a lot of work for us in the past and has always charged a very fair price. I'd recommend Philip to anyone who needs "chores" done around the house."

Plumbing Handymen questions, answered by experts

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.

You can temporarily patch a leaking copper pipe using epoxy putty or adhesive tape. These are not permanent solutions, and you will eventually need to remove and replace the damaged portion of the pipe. 

For a smaller pinhole, you can solder it closed using plumbing flux. Again, this is only a temporary solution, but it will give you time to hire a plumber and go over your options.

Clean regularly with non-abrasive cleaners, avoid pouring grease down the drain, and check for leaks under the sink.

The use of polybutylene pipes stopped in mid-1996 in the U.S., following a class action lawsuit that was filed against polybutylene plumbing manufacturers. Homes built between 1978 and 1996 are most likely to have polybutylene plumbing.

Yes, you can use flexible pipe for a sink drain. Flexible pipes can make it easier to fit sink plumbing together with less measuring and fewer cuts. However, corrugated flexible pipe can trap hair, grease, and food particles in the folds and cause foul odors and eventually build up enough to clog the drain. Smooth pipes are recommended for sink drains and plumbing.
