"Mike and Brian were absoutely amazing!! They installed a new hot water heater, fixed some leaking pipes, and they ended up fixing some other issues with the kitchen sink for a GREAT price. I can't stress enough how awesome they were. We were going through a rough time due to covid and they helped us out and made it affordable to get all the issues we had fixed and gave us great advice on other issues that helped save us hundreds of dollars! I highly highly highly recommend them! Thanks again guys you are both life savers!!"

"I don't often leave reviews, but I still feel taken advantage of by this company. Let me start by saying that the man who came to my house was very nice, professional, friendly, etc. That was not my issue. My issue is that they charge 49 dollars to come out (fully advertised) but still it puts you in a spot that once they give you a quote you have already "dumped" 49 dollars to get them there so you are more likely to say yes. The guy went down and informed me he had to cut through the drywall to get to the pipe, which I knew. I didn't have the right tool to do it and they came quickly. I figured how much could it cost to cut a 3x3 foot hole in my wall? Well, I found out. He quoted me 150.00 dollars. I knew that was a lot, but he said he was going to bill for 3/4 of an hour (45mins), but assured me it would "not take that long." I went down to the basement to watch and it took about 3 minutes. So here I was at 200.00 dollars and all that had actually been accomplished was a hole in my wall. He then quoted me the job and it was an additional 355.00 dollars. This is when I said "thanks, but no thanks." I tried to give a coupon of 25 dollars off "service," but was informed that he didn't actually perform a service. I guess charging me 150 dollars to cut drywall isn't considered a service. So 200.00+ dollars later I was left with a 3x3 hole in my drywall and had to call another plumber to finish the job (for half the price). Friendly service, prompt service, but couldn't help but feel I had been taken for a ride."

"We hired Mike to repair some drywall and also replace a kitchen sink faucet, and he was fantastic! He showed up when he said he would and got the jobs done in the time frame he gave us. He also did an excellent job and we were more than satisfied with the quality of his work. We have other projects we would like to get done and will be calling Mike back for the work. I highly recommend Mike for any jobs around your house you would like to get done."

"We chose Five Star Bath Solutions to renovate our 2 bathrooms and let me just say, we were blown away by the professionalism, friendliness and hardworking nature of Latchman and Rocky, under Phil’s management. From start to finish, the process was smooth and we felt confident in the ability of the team to get the job done. Extra care was taken to prevent damage to the house throughout the renovation process and my wife and I were involved at every step of the way. You can tell that Phil and his crew take pride in their work and the results tell the story. The quality of the materials used was top notch and they tested everything following installation to ensure functionality. Finding hard workers that actually care about their work is difficult to find in today’s world but rest assured, you will be satisfied with a Five Star Bath Solutions renovation."

"This company was able to come out the very day I had an issue. They were prompt and courteous. They tried really hard to clear my sewage line. Unfortunately, his drill bit broke and he was unable to get my drain clear. It is a 180 year old house so who knows what is blocking the drain. They recommended four companies immediately to help. I cannot thank this company enough for their kindness and prompt service. I highly recommend this company."

"recently had our water heater replaced and had a great experience from start to finish. The team was professional, knowledgeable, and completed the installation quickly and efficiently. They explained everything clearly, cleaned up after the job, and made the whole process stress-free. The new water heater works perfectly, and we couldn’t be happier with the service. I would definitely recommend them to anyone needing water heater replacement or plumbing work!"

Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts

For plumbing projects in Schenectady, PEX and copper piping are preferred for their durability and resistance to freezing. Insulated pipes and frost-proof outdoor spigots help prevent winter damage. Water softeners and sediment filters are recommended due to local water conditions. When selecting fixtures, choose corrosion-resistant materials and consider high-efficiency water heaters to ensure long-lasting, reliable plumbing performance.

Helpful?

When hiring a plumbing professional in Schenectady, prioritize experience with local building codes and older home plumbing systems. Ask for references from nearby residents and verify insurance coverage. Make sure the plumber is familiar with local utility infrastructure and historic district requirements. Request multiple written estimates, confirm emergency service availability, and ensure they can promptly service your specific neighborhood for reliable support.

Helpful?

In Schenectady, recurring clogs in the same location often signal deteriorating cast iron pipes common in older homes. Watch for gurgling sounds from multiple fixtures or water backing up in basement floor drains, as these can indicate main line issues. Slow drainage during winter is another red flag, as freezing temperatures can expand minor clogs and crack pipes, leading to significant repairs.

Helpful?

In Schenectady, especially within historic districts, drain cleaning projects must balance function and aesthetics. Upgrading old cast iron pipes to modern PVC requires careful planning to preserve a home's character. Professionals work to conceal new access points and route lines to avoid disrupting original floors, all while accommodating the narrow lot configurations and older basement layouts common in the area.

Helpful?

Proper drain cleaning significantly boosts comfort in a Schenectady home by preventing frustrating slow drains and messy sewage backups. It also enhances health and safety by eliminating sewer gas odors common in older homes and reducing mold risks. Ensuring reliable drainage is crucial for preventing basement flooding during heavy spring runoff, protecting your property value and providing peace of mind.
