"I called P & A Sewer and Drain to replace the toilet flange and to unclog the kitchen sink. The plumber did an excellent job, paying close attention to detail and he left the work areas spotless. If you're looking for an honest plumber with very reasonable rates, I highly recommend calling P & A Sewer and Drain."

"Let me start by saying they fixed my leak, cleaned up after himself, were available to start when I needed them, and did not leave any open areas. They quoted me a price to fix a water leak in between my first and second floor bathrooms. Tony quoted me $3800 (I only had $3600) saying this was a big job after he cut a 1ft 6in hole in my 1st floor bathroom ceiling to see what is going on. He said he had to also remove the 2nd floor toilet and create another hole to work through both floors (him and his partner) to access the leak. He called his partner in and by the time it was completed they did not even remove the 2nd floor toilet - which is why I agreed to the higher price because I was led to believe it was more labor intensive."

"Ackeno just left and he did a great job! He is straightforward and honest, hustled to get the job done (a leak under the kitchen sink) and was very fair and transparent with pricing. I told him he is now my guy for all plumbing needs. Ackeno is a real standup guy! I wouldn't hesitate for a second to hire him again or refer him to friends."

Toilets questions, answered by experts

You can tell if your toilet fill valve is full by removing the lid and taking a look. When you flush the toilet, the float is at the bottom of the tank, the water empties, and the fill valve opens. The float rises to the top as the tank fills again with water. When the float rises to the right level, the fill valve closes; if the valve is too high, your toilet may only partially flush, requiring you to adjust the float. 

The normal water level in a toilet bowl is about halfway full. The water should sit above the P trap drain because this creates a seal and suction. When you flush the toilet, the suction keeps sewer gases from entering your house through your toilet. Anytime the water level is higher or lower than half full, you need to make adjustments or replace broken parts.

Hiring an emergency plumber is expensive because of the urgency and inconvenience, but there are a few things you can do to help keep costs down:

  • Minimize water damage by shutting off your water main 

  • Clean up pooling water immediately to reduce damage and mold growth

  • Avoid using fixtures if you have a clog or septic system backup

  • Verify that your plumber is licensed before hiring

  • Call a few plumbers for estimates if you can afford a short delay in getting service

There are several ways to save money on a bathroom remodel through proper planning and savvy design strategies. To reduce costs, consider the following:

  • Purchase your own materials: Buy your own bathroom fixtures, hardware, and other materials to avoid contractor upcharges and delivery fees.

  • Shop smart for big-ticket items: Save on pricey items like tiles and tubs by shopping sales and at discount stores.

  • Avoid major layout changes: Keep plumbing in its current location. Opt to replace fixtures rather than moving them to avoid significant renovation work.

  • Focus on high-impact, low-cost updates: Make affordable but impactful smaller changes, such as upgrading hardware, installing new lighting, and adding stylish but economical accessories.

  • DIY where possible: Handle easier parts of the remodel yourself, like painting or installing light fixtures, to save on labor costs.

  • Time your remodel strategically: Consider remodeling in the spring, which tends to be a lower-demand time of year and may result in lower costs.

To drain a broken toilet, place towels or plastic sheeting around the base in case of splashing or overflowing. Next, shut off the toilet’s water supply, usually via a valve on the wall behind the toilet. Begin flushing the handle to remove as much water as possible from the tank and the bowl. Don’t flush the toilet if it’s clogged, though. From there, use a large sponge to soak up any remaining water and wring it over a bucket.
