"I hired Do It Right Plumbing for the first time today. They arrived promptly, early even and were very down to earth, knowledgable and their price was reasonable. I felt comfortable having them in my home and would hire these pros again any day. Thanks Dylan and Steve. My toilet works again!"
"They got here when they said they would, finished when they said they would. They did some extra adjusting of fixtures for us. We called them to come back for another plumbing issue that we noticed!"
"This is the second project we had Nick do in our house in 10 months. This time we remodel the main bathroom and the kitchen. For kitchen, new granite countertops were installed over the original cabinets as well as new custom backsplash. Both came out great! I must note since Nick custom cut out the space for the cooktop on-site, there are no annoying seams around the cooktop that I have seen in many other homes. Attention to details is definitely Nick's strength. For bathroom, we replace all the plumbing, countertop, vanity mirrors, lights, hardware, and toilet. New wall and floor tiles were also installed. Just like the last project, Nick and his team did an expert job in remodeling the bathroom and we couldn't be happier with the results. Frameless glass door was also installed over the tub that display the wonderful tiles. Nick's price is extremely competitive and his service is the best in the area. He let you use his contractor's discount with the local suppliers where you purchase the materials directly without any markup (and get exactly what you want). Quality of the tile works is truly superb that we are really impressed. His crew cleanup the work area at the end of each day during the project and keep everything neat and clean. We are very happy with the results and would highly recommend Nick for any kitchen and bathroom remodeling projects."
"I hired Bennett to replace my gas water heater. He was prompt and thorough when he came out to give me a quote, he made sure I knew all my different options, and he helped me understand the reasons behind suggestions he made. Things that gave me confidence in Bennett were that he listened well, leaned on his network of experienced plumbers to get a second opinion on a tricky setup, was extremely fair with his pricing, and in the end his recommendation was a replacement-in-kind rather than an upgrade since it was more in line with my needs, which showed me that he put the customer first! Great experience working with Bennett overall."
"Bath Planet came out and remodeled my Bathroom Shower, they were professional, and they did this with in 4 hours, they cleaned up after themselves. We had odd shaped walls but they handled this professionally. Mike the installer was professional, but he did a quality job, he also run into a little plumbing problems, so I had to get my own plumber there to help them out, otherwise everything was good. I am happy so far, it is been 2 weeks of using my new shower and so far so good, very easy cleanup, just wipe down which I Love!!"
"We hired Kevin to redo our bathroom. He finished the drywall, installed the tub shower with panel walls, tile floor, installed the toilet, installed the vanity, and hung the mirror. There were many great conversations between us about plans before work began and he was very helpful with bouncing ideas back and forth. We really relied on his experience with installing other bathrooms when making decisions. We also wanted a partial wall on one side of the tub to let in natural light in the shower and he worked with us to get it just right. The paneling he used in the shower is very nice and something you wont find at a box store. We LOVE IT! We were thinking tile but Kevin mentioned the paneling was easier to maintain but we were sure since we didnt like what weve seen at the box stores for paneling. We trusted his judgement and chose the basket weave (if I recall that right) with a matte finish. Again, we used his experience when picking the color of the shelves and even the color of the tub. There were so many choices but we felt like his experience really helped us make good decisions, everything looks so nice all together. Were also glad we chose the paneling, its so nice. He was also right; it is very easy to clean. It is our favorite part of the bathroom. Kevin also recommended extending the paneling to the ceiling and we love that recommendation too! Such a small detail but when youre in the shower it feels so large. Between the feeling of it being large in a very small bathroom and the quality of the tub and panels, you feel like youre on vacation, a little getaway. He also helped us customize the shelves in the shower and helped us decide the spacing the shelves. there are so many decisions to be made when remodeling a bathroom and Kevin helped us when we were not what we should chose. Kevin helped us by visually showing us where he could place them. We really felt like our experience was customized and didnt work with someone who is just going through the motions to get things done quickly, very refreshing. Kevin really focused on details and the results really show this in the quality of his work. We also love the insulated tub he recommended, when we give our daughter her bath, it stays warm much longer. We love our tile floors too. We had already gotten the floor before hiring Kevin but he showed us different options by laying them out for us, which made the decision easier by seeing the options in the actual space. Keven worked at a great pace and we asked him to do some additional work as a result of his great work. He helped us with installing our kitchen sink and dishwasher, as well as, finishing up some other drywall and plumbing in the house. We highly recommend Kevin from Patriarch Remodeling! He is so personable without it distracting him from his work. He cleaned up everything and our bathroom was ready to be used when he was done. We get so many compliments on our bathroom and I know youll love his work too!"
"The crew of 5 did a great job installing a new Cummins generator. They had to run a new gas line from the meter, through the basement and out to the backyard. Also had to reroute many electrical connections. The generator activates twice a month for 20 minutes. All automatic. They installed a wifi connection from the generator to Anderson. Price was much lower than quotes from local plumbing companies who were mostly offering an inferior product. Cummins is highly recommended for cold climates."
"I had to have my pipe coming into my home replace in a very small crawl space. I had someone not show up and another quote me almost twice Greg's price. Greg came in on a Sunday and had the job done by Monday evening."
"The tech came in, knew exactly what the problem was, and went right to work. Took the freezer unit apart, chip the ice out of it, and had to use hot water to defrost the drain hole. Took him 40 minutes. Unit works perfectly now. Would definitely use this company again!"
How much it will cost to install an earthquake shut-off valve depends on who’s doing the installation. The price of the earthquake shut-off valve itself can cost between $250 and $750, and you’ll pay between $150 and $200 for labor if you hire a licensed plumbing contractor. If you install the valve yourself, you’ll save on labor, but you might need to spend $50 to $300 on the right tools for the job (and it’s a complex job that we don’t recommend DIYing).
Homeowners insurance often covers water leaks and resulting damage, but coverage depends on the cause. Leaks from sudden and accidental events, like a burst pipe or storm damage to a roof, are typically covered. However, if the leak is due to a lack of maintenance, homeowner negligence, or general wear and tear (such as an old roof failing), the claim will likely be denied. Some causes, like flooding or leaks from faulty appliances, may be excluded from standard policies. After taking steps to stop the leak, contact your insurance company immediately and review your specific plan to understand your coverage.
Yes, pressure-assist toilets leak, but less often than regular toilets. You might experience leaks from your toilet due to worn-out parts, water pressure in your plumbing that’s too high or low, poor installation, or cracks in your tank. These toilets are harder to fix on your own than gravity-fed ones, so it’s best to call a plumber if you can’t figure out what’s wrong,
You can unclog a double kitchen sink by plunging the side with the garbage disposal. Cover the drain hole on the other side first to avoid creating a mess. Plunge up and down until the water starts to drain. You can also pour in baking soda and vinegar to try and dissolve a clog.
While you may have some water, it's best to wait until after the repair is complete to use your home's pipes. For one thing, the water pressure will most likely be greatly reduced, leading to a less-than-intense shower. There's also the risk of contamination from dirt and bacteria that can enter the broken water main pipe. In many cases, a pro will turn off the flow of water from your water main to do the repairs, so showering won’t likely be an option.
