"This group was hired by repipe to repipe my house and they did an outstanding job! I am a very picky person but I was very satisfied with their work not to mention the extras that were put in to bring my house up to code as a courtesy! I rate them as five stars and would recommend them to anyone that needs work done. They were courteous and very respectful towards my premises."
"The entire process was very professional and stress free. The technicians, Ivan and Jake, were knowledgeable, friendly and professional. The area where the repair was done is all rock with a river rock stream running through it. When they were done it looked like not a rock was ever moved. Excellent job. I recommend Hawthorne Plumbing to all."
"Two years ago Riley Plumbing and Heating replaced the corroded galvanized water pipe from the street meter to my house, so I was very surprised to have another water leak in the back yard last month. Riley Plumbing came out again, and found that the new leak was due to another corroded galvanized pipe that was supplying water to the back yard irrigation system. They replaced this pipe, tying the water supply to the irrigation system to the water line they installed two years ago. Mike Rojas, Luis Ortiz and Aiden did the work in a professional manner, and left the back yard in good shape for re-seeding this fall. (Hopefully no more corroded pipes in my yard!)"
"Responded extremely fast to my inquiry, was out the next day for an estimate and a couple days later fixed our closet. Turned out amazing, very nice, quick and good to work with!"
General handyman things, light electrical, landscaping, painting, plumbing and pretty much anything else. I also know my limits, so if there is something I am not 100% certain I can do up to standards then I will be honest. Cost is always negotiable with me.
"I will never call another plumbing company! Mike and Matt were awesome. They were friendly, knowledgeable and quick. They got the job done perfectly in under an hour. I would highly recommend them to anyone looking for plumbing."
Pipes tend to burst once frozen for 24 to 72 hours. It takes temperatures 20 degrees Fahrenheit or colder for several days to freeze and burst pipes, rather than a day or two with temperatures hovering around freezing. When temperatures are dropping, it’s time to drip faucets and open cupboard doors that house pipes to circulate heated air.
It’s a good time to replace your outdoor faucet at the first sign of a leak that doesn't stop when the knob is turned off. Also, you may want to replace your faucet if there is a great deal of lime build-up, the surface behind the faucet is deteriorating, or the faucet itself is pulling away from the wall. The job doesn’t take more than a few hours and can save you money in the long -run.
The water in your toilet tank refills after each flush. So if you see dirty water in the bowl, you should check the tank to see if it’s coming from there. A dirty toilet tank can be the result of sediment in the water itself—-after all, the water will sit in the tank between flushes and can cause the interior to change into a dingy color. Faulty toilet components, like an old flapper, corroded tank lever or chain, or damaged seals, can also lead to dirty water as the materials break down inside the tank. You can clean the toilet tank or change out the old parts to give it a fresh start.
Yes, a sprinkler system can leak even when it is turned off. This issue is often caused by a leaky valve, which may have a crack or hole that allows water to pass through. In many cases, repairing the valve will solve the problem. Another possibility is that water is simply finishing its draining cycle, which you might notice at the lowest sprinkler head as gravity pulls the remaining water out. More seriously, the leak could be due to improper grading of the system, which can lead to significant water waste. It's also possible that what appears to be a leak is actually just poor drainage in your yard. If you suspect a leak, it's a good idea to have a professional take a look to diagnose the exact cause.
Shut off the water if it’s safe to do so, and call a plumber as soon as you can. The longer a leak goes on, the more potential there is for water damage or a burst pipe. Repairing a burst pipe costs $500 on average. Then, remove any remaining water and ventilate the area.
