Tommy came to fix my dryer. He was prompt, polite and neat as a pin. He diagnosed the problem right away. He then took the bad part home and tried to repair it to save me money. When that proved impossible, he found a replacement part and installed it. The work was done quickly and on budget.

Sink Repair questions, answered by experts

If you know the job is going to be extensive (and you don’t like surprises), hiring a Roto-Rooter specialist may make sense for you. You’ll know how much you’re going to pay right away.

That said, hiring the best plumber isn’t solely about price. If you've worked with a plumber you trust before or have a list of plumbing services you need tackled at your home, working with a plumber might be a better choice for you.

Yes, you can replace just the top of a bathroom vanity, which you may choose to do if you love the look of your vintage bathroom cabinets, but the countertops are not your style. Fortunately, it is pretty simple to detach a vanity top from a base for replacement, but you should still shut off the water to avoid a leak. Replacing only the vanity top costs around $400 to $4,300.

On average, it takes four to eight hours to install a pedestal sink. However, several factors will influence how much time it takes to install a pedestal sink, including:

A replacement will take longer to put in than a new install
The size and weight of the pedestal sink—a pro may need an apprentice for help
It will take longer to change the sink type vs. replacing the pedestal with a duplicate

Putting in a new bidet attachment or seat requires as little as 30 minutes. Installing a full bidet toilet or stand-alone bidet might take one to three hours. Additionally, if you need a GFCI outlet installed, that can take 30 minutes to three hours depending on the complexity of the job.

Many homeowners stress about cleaning before an emergency plumber arrives, but you’re far better off doing the following while you wait for your plumber to get to your home:

Shut the water off at your water main if you have a leak or a burst pipe
Avoid using any water fixtures in your home, including appliances
Clear a path to the problem area so that it’s easily accessible
Consider shutting your breaker if you’re concerned that the leak may affect your electrical system
