Tumminello Plumbing & Heating, Inc. is a small owner business, ran by Michael Tumminello. Michael has been a Local Union 1 plumber for over 30 years with his Master's Plumbers License with The Town of Hempstead. He is also licensed by numerous other cities, towns, and villages throughout Nassau and Suffolk counties.

"I had a terrible leak in my bathrooms in a 60 year old home. Mike over at Tumminello's quoted me an all-in price. Mike immediately realized I needed the lead pipes leading up to my toilet replaced. I knew as soon as Mike described what he wanted to do that is what I waned. Mike gave me an alternative, but I went with the full replacement choice. The other plumbers I called could only give me an hourly rate. The two guys that came to my home, Matt and Ryan, were very friendly and respectful. The work was quoted and done quickly and at a very reasonable cost. I had 2 toilets installed and leak fixed. I had my lead bends replaced; both leaked; both definitely needed replacement. Mike was very flexible on whether I wanted to install my own toilets or if I wanted him to pick them up. I told him the toilet that I was looking at, and he told me he could get a quote on a similar toilet. He saved me from having to order the toilet, and waiting a week over at HD or Lowe's. He called me back in about 10 minutes, we agreed on a toilet. My elderly father then decided he wanted his toilet changed too. I called Mike, and someone else answered, I told them I wanted to add a toilet, but with a rounded shape. The next day, Matt and Ryan arrived with both toilets. They did a great job on the toilets and the leak. I'm doing more work to my plumbing, and will definitely be using Tumminello Plumbing and Heating again. Thanks to everyone over at Tumminello's Plumbing and Heating."

Excavating questions, answered by experts

Above ground pools are not buried in the ground. Typically, above ground pools are semi-permanent. One reason they’re more affordable is that you don’t have to dig for an inground pool and pour concrete or another material. However, you can choose to install a semi inground pool, which is a hybrid between the two.

A trench that is less than 5 feet deep often doesn't require a protective system. Most residential trenches will not go this deep (the typical residential drainage trench is just 18 inches deep). In the event that an excavator needs to dig more than 5 feet beneath the surface, a protective system is required unless the excavation is in entirely stable rock.

How deep your septic system needs to be into the ground depends on several factors. In extremely cold environments, the tank needs to rest below the maximum frost line, which can be up to six or eight feet deep. The standard burying depth for most systems is between a few inches and four feet below ground level. Depth can also depend on the slope of the landscaping and other property variables. 

While general contractors sometimes handle demolition, you can also look specifically for local demolition contractors. Demolition experts need to understand structural integrity, the equipment needed for safe demolition, and the permits required for demolition.

Prior to excavation, you should prepare the dig site and call 311 before you sign anything.

To get your site ready for excavation, you should move anything in the area that isn’t affixed to the land. You can save money on the excavation by removing hardscaping, including walkways, decks, concrete patios, and paver patios.

Before you carry out any digging, you should call 311 to confirm that there are no utility lines running through your excavation site. Skipping this step could lead to severe injury and property damage if your excavator hits a water, sewage, or gas line.
