"Kevan (spelled with an "a") was the only plumber who even called me back the day after Christmas. All these other companies that advertise 24/7 & Holidays emergency service did not even answer the phone. We lost power and our pipes froze in super cold weather we had Christmas 2022. In 32 years my pipes never froze but they did this time and they burst in multiple locations. Kevin called and came out the same day and worked into the night replacing multiple ruptures. He is extremely courteous and professional and I HIGHLY RECOMMEND HIM for any plumbing or water treatment needs. Ken H., New Paltz, NY."

"Comment: I was finally able to find a responsive and reliable plumber. Jason returned my call promptly and showed up on time for both the estimate and several days later when he completed the job. He replaced two toilets, an outside spigot and well as installing several cut off valves. All work was done with care and cleanup was great. Jason also made suggestions for other work that I am considering. All-in-all this was a positive experience and I highly recommend Jason and Aquarius Master Plumbing and Heating for your plumbing needs. Thanks again, Jason."

"This was a total positive experience. I would highly recommend Parker Plumbing and Electric. We have owned a home for 40 years and he is the first plumber who actually returned phone calls promptly and answered all our questions and explained the work he was doing. We had a water softener installed as well as other water pressure issues resolved. He does quality work and is very professional and at fair prices with no hidden costs."

"Nice job. Very, very satisfied. Had used company before to replace well tank in basement. This after my well pump went a few years before. Thought well tank a bit pricey at the time. But excellent responsiveness and service. Found Olf Faithful here on Angie's list, as plumber did not do well tanks. This time Joe came when pump stopped working. It was replaced a few years back by my plumber, so was surprised it stopped working after a short time. Plumber told me he would be a lot cheaper than well service companies. So Joe pulled up the pump, and told me that the pump was fine!! I think we were both very surprised. The plumber didn't tie down the electric cable appropriately, so it frayed, then finally broke off, resulting in lost power to the pump. I wouldn't have had a clue if I was told the pump needed replacement, so while it cost me to have the cable replaced, it would have cost more with both new cable and pump. So am grateful for company's honesty. The old saying goes here. In the end, had I knew of Old Faithful to install the pump properly, I "might" have paid more initially. But would have never needed a follow-up repair. That old saying rings true. You get what you pay for!!! Very satisfied with professionalism as well as honesty of this company. Would highly recommend."

"John and his apprentice are great, friendly & personable people. They came right away and took care of my plumbing problem. They worked with me on prices and are very affordable! It's the first time I used them but it won't be the last. They have a customer for life!! I highly recommend them and if you use them, you will be a customer for life as well. He even went as far as giving us tips on how to effectively fix other issues we have. What plumber does that?!! Thank you John...you rock!!!!"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Applying drain cleaner is a common DIY solution to clogged drains, but it can be extremely harmful to your pipes and lead to corrosion and leaks. It is almost always better to try snaking a clog than using a drain cleaner, but the best solution is to hire a professional plumber. They can locate the clog and gauge the severity using a camera system and then decide if using a plumber’s snake, auger, or drain cleaner is the best option to remove the clog and limit damage to your plumbing system.

The average cost to hire a plumber is typically between $45 and $200 per hour, with a common average rate around $125 per hour. This cost can vary based on your location, the plumber's experience, and the complexity of the job. Rates are often broken down by experience level: an apprentice may charge $45 to $90 an hour, a journeyman $60 to $110 an hour, and a master plumber $80 to $200 an hour. While hourly rates are standard, some plumbers may charge a flat fee for routine projects or offer project-based pricing. It's also common for plumbers to charge a minimum service or trip fee. For reference, some typical flat-rate costs for common jobs include: drain unclogging ($220), leaky faucet repair ($270), burst pipe repair ($400), toilet repair ($300), and water heater repair ($600). Note that these rates are for standard service hours; emergency, holiday, and after-hours calls will cost significantly more.

If your sink is on an exterior wall that isn’t insulated, or if pipes travel through a cabinet against an exterior wall that prevents heated air from circulating around the pipes, the pipes can freeze, causing them to burst. The best way to avoid leaking sinks is to insulate the pipes and open cabinets in the short term to warm the water line up and prevent freezing.

It is okay to use a drain auger on a toilet, just make sure you are using the correct tip size. The auger is a plumbing snake with a protective sleeve to protect the porcelain toilet bowl from getting scratched. Using too large of an auger can cause the snake to loop back and damage the inside of the drain and plumbing.

To keep window wells from filling up with water, you need to stay on top of maintenance. Remove debris as it fills up, and regularly loosen the gravel at the base if it’s become compacted. You can also reslope your yard to make sure water flows away from the window well (and your home’s foundation), and you can even install a window well cover to prevent debris from building up. Installing an actual drainpipe at the base of the well can also prevent window well drainage problems.
