"All Trades Plumbing and Construction saved the day! We were mid project on two bathroom remodels when sadly our existing plumbers business folded. All Trades Plumbing was highly recommended to me from a friend and for a good reason! great communication, turn up when stated, outstanding quality of work and a follow up service like no other. Both bathrooms were finished to perfection. They also found time to install a new water heater and a full house filtration system. The quality of the plumbing was just outstanding. Being a contractor for 20 years i know good work/service when I see it. Definitely the best at what they do and top of their game. I Can’t say enough good things about them."

"I was pleased with every aspect of the service provided. He came the day before a holiday, brought the new water heater with him, removed the old one and installed the new one in a very short time. He was even willing to give my son some advice on a faucet change out my son was working on. The price was very reasonable and the plumber was friendly and responsive. I am thrilled to have found my forever plumber!!"

Plumbing FAQs, answered by experts

Flushing the toilet only to realize it’s clogged can cause anxiety. To avoid a clogged toilet, use less toilet paper. If you notice that the toilet is flushing and refilling slower than usual, you can use a plunger to clear clogs in the S-trap. If that doesn’t work, call a plumber to check your system and possibly clear the drain lines.

You cannot leave the sewer cleanout cap off. Leaving it off can be dangerous and costly for you. If you need help getting the right sewer cleanout cap or adding one to your system, reach out to a local pro for advice and professional help to ensure the cap is installed correctly. 

Sometimes a leaky faucet is simply the fault of a washer gone bad. Follow these steps to change the washer:

  • Shut off the water to the faucet

  • Remove the screw and handle

  • Remove the packing nut and washers

  • Clean and replace washers 

  • Reinstall the packing nut and handle

No, rough-in plumbing isn’t usually required for minor bathroom changes. However, if you’re taking on the cost of a bathroom remodel and require plumbing work, hiring your local plumber to replumb your home is best. Rough-in plumbing is only ideal for new construction and full-blown renovations.

The key difference between a standard spigot (or regular hose bib) and a frost-free hose bib is its design to prevent freezing and pipe bursting during cold weather. A standard spigot is a basic outdoor faucet. In contrast, a frost-free hose bib has a longer stem that extends into the heated interior of the house, placing the shut-off valve inside where it's protected from freezing temperatures. This design, often combined with a downward-sloping supply pipe, ensures water drains out of the faucet body when turned off, preventing ice formation. This allows you to leave the water supply on year-round without the risk of pipe damage, making it a valuable choice for regions with harsh winters.
