"Christian and his assistant were very polite and considerate, and on time, and did their best to accommodate my chemical sensitivity. They found less expensive and chemical-free ways to do the work. They came back on Saturday to fix a leak by replacing a pop-up. I was very happy with their thoughtfulness and their work."

"The job that was performed went exceptionally well. I didn't have a pick-up truck to retrieve the water heater from a local store, he went over to the store and picked it up for me. He removed the old one and installed the new one. He also cleaned up the water that leaked over when emptying the old one. I called Affordable Plumbing in the morning and he was right over with in the hour. He hooked up my water line for the evaporative cooler while he was here. The cost was much less than what I had anticipated, a whole lot less. I'm satisfied and thankful. He's upfront with cost and no hidden fees. I would definitely recommend Art Villalobos for plumbing  needs. I will use his services in the future.

"Mr. Stressler was very easy to work with, and he did everything asked of him. His work met all of my expectations and specifications. Should I need any further remodeling, I would not hesitate to call Mr. Stressler. In category below asking for dates of service. But due to my travels, work was done in increments: master bath, kitchen, guest bathroom, and then in June a one day outside job in which a new door was put on a storage unit, and my security door was given a new coat of paint."

"Jill was very pleasant to work with, taking care to assure that specifications were clear & and our preferences were respected.
She provided two complete design layouts as options to choose from before further design work was done. After one was selected, she provided great ideas for furnishings (with distinct measurements,)
appropriate for the setting , accessories, and even paint colors, and samples to work with.
It was a great help to have her assist me, giving me confidence to move forward with furnishing our new home.
I would never have anticipated that one could be so effective with design via email!
Very pleased with results!

Plumbing Handymen FAQs, answered by experts

To create a siphon break and remove any chance of dirty sink water or water that backs up into the sink from getting into your dishwasher, your dishwasher drain hose needs to have a high loop or an air gap device as part of its installation. All building codes require at least a high loop. In many places, it’s necessary to install an air gap device to meet the code.

While you shouldn’t increase the flow of your low-flow toilet by adjusting the water level in the toilet bowl set by the manufacturer, you can make the flow as efficient as possible by ensuring the rim jets under the rim are unobstructed. To do this, use a mirror to look under the rim and scrub them with a toothbrush or a small wire to clear any debris stuck in the holes. You can also watch for leaks, make sure the internal components are in good shape, and replace them if necessary.

No, you typically cannot use metal detectors to find your sewer line. Most sewer lines are made of non-metallic materials such as PVC, clay, or cast iron, which are not detectable by standard metal detectors. Metal detectors are designed to locate metallic objects, so they won't be effective for identifying the path of a non-metallic sewer line. To locate your sewer line accurately, it's best to use other methods.

For a fully-foamed hot tub, freezing typically occurs when the temperature drops below 28 degrees Fahrenheit and remains at or below this level continuously for a minimum of 36 hours. If your hot tub and pumps are still operational, however, the water circulates, and this continuous movement helps prevent freezing, even in very cold conditions. This circulation, along with the insulation provided by the foam, helps maintain the water temperature and prevent it from freezing during extended cold periods. Still, if you’re not planning to run it regularly, be sure to winterize the hot tub properly to prevent damage from freezing.

Yes, you can use the same hole in the wall for the new spigot, provided that the existing hole is in good condition and aligns with the mounting holes of the new spigot. However, ensuring a proper fit and seal is essential to prevent leaks. If there are significant mismatches or issues with the existing hole, make adjustments or consider using a flange or escutcheon to cover any gaps or imperfections around the new spigot.
