"George with Independence Plumbing and Bath exceeded my expectations. I had a tub and shower remodel that was not only finished earlier than quoted, but completed with such quality and at a great price. George is punctual, has great communication, and definitely knows what he?s doing and does it with care and professionalism. I would 100% recommend them to anyone who needs any bathroom repairs or remodels."
"Love Haines Drains Plumbing!!! They answered the phone, didn't let it go to voicemail😊👍. They were able to come out the same. wow! Excellent technicians gave an estimate, explained everything. Highly recommend them."
"This family owned business is AMAZING!! They worked until the job was done correctly without overcharging us. They were professional, intelligent, and had our water flowing and toilets flushing after a long, grueling day and a half of work. Wonderful job!!"
"We are pleased with our bath remodel that included a new tub, tub surround and wainscot walls. There was one small problem with the walls due to the ceiling and walls not being plumb however they did go above and beyond by doing more than was was agreed upon by making plumbing improvements, installing a new lighted medicine cabinet and repairing a light fixture. They were very courteous and the installer even made a suggestion for a change that we agreed would be better."
"I had my tub replaced by Home Team Home Improvements and I?m so happy with how it turned out! The whole process was smooth and the crew was friendly and easy to work with. They showed up when they said they would, worked efficiently, and cleaned up after themselves. My new tub looks amazing and made such a big difference in the bathroom. You can tell they really care about doing quality work. I would definitely recommend them to anyone looking to update their bathroom.If I could recommend anyone for Home improvement it would be Window Depot, Thanks again for the great job!"
"JR Bath converted our old tub into a walk in shower. I'm thrilled with our new shower. They finished it in 1 day. Eric the installer was respectful & consulted us so everything was placed for our convenience. I can't recommend them highly enough."
Phoned Marty's appliance Repair on July 16. Although He could not come out that day that was okay. He later phone me again the same day in the evening and confirmed he would be out on the 17th between 10 and 12.
He had not arrived by 12:30, so I phoned him because I wanted to be sure he was coming. He had forgotten that he had called me the evening before and told me he was planning to come at the end of his day. Once we got this cleared up, he did show up after he finished the job he was on.
I had an icemaker that had stopped dispensing water, then stopped dispensing ice cubes. I could live without the water, but was worried to just let it go, since everything had then also stopped. My suspicions from looking on-line was that there was ice in the lines, which I mentioned to him.
He checked the lines behind the refrigerator and did some reconnecting to see if the water was coming through, and it was. There was no plumbing issue. Still the water would not dispense. After some more switching back and forth he thought it was corrected as he got the water to come from the lines. He put the refrigerator back in place, but still no water came out of the dispenser.
Ultimately, there was ice in the lines, and he got a heat dryer of some sort and directed it as some of the lines around the dispensing unit and under the refrigerator. Which is exactly what I had found in my research on line, but my concern was there was something else was wrong when the ice stopped dispensing.
He mentioned when he had been there about 10 minutes and still behind the refrigerator checking the lines that it already was $120.00, I can only think this is what he charged for this kind of job. I believe he noticed that it was very dusty behind and inside the back of the refrigerator and I asked him what it would cost to vacuum it out. He had said it would be another $60 so $180 plus tax. I did have him vacuum this out, because I knew it had never been done. and he was already there.
There were no parts involved, and he had also told me in my initial conversation that if I called one of the "big" repair stores it would be a lot more. How much more could it be? I did call another service repair company the next day because I felt ripped off, and received a quote of 90.00 plus $30 for the vacuuming of the unit. I had used them before, and should have used them again.
No Angie's list discount was even suggested. He seems to be a very nice, pleasant man, and is knowledgeable at what he does, but I would not use him again because of cost. My mechanical skills are nil so I could not have done the jiggling around behind the refrigerator, and I do not mind paying for services, I just do not want to feel taken. This is the second time I have been unhappy with an Angie's list recommendation.
"Very happy with our remodeled bathroom!! The shower is exactly what we wanted! Very reliable! I would recommend Premier Home Pros to anyone looking to redo their bathroom!"
The best way to unclog a bathtub drain is to pour a pot of boiled water down the drain, being careful not to splash yourself. However, take precautions, as boiling water can damage PVC pipes and joints. Follow up with ½ cup of baking soda and ½ cup of vinegar. Cover the drain with a small sink plunger and let it sit for 15 minutes. Pour boiling water down the drain again and replace the drain stopper.
Sprinkler pipes can leak for various reasons, including physical damage from being stepped on or punctured by garden tools. Systemic issues can also be the cause, such as broken or damaged O-rings and connections. Leaks may also occur if the pipes were not installed correctly or if the above-ground valves have failed.
If you have a huge leak like a burst pipe, it’s an emergency, and you should call a plumber immediately. Burst pipe repair costs range between $150 and $5,000, depending on the location of the pipe and the severity of the leak.
On the other hand, more minor leaks can go undetected for a while, which can cause water damage to your cabinets, walls, flooring, or ceiling. So while you don’t need to call it an emergency, you should still worry about a small leak. Get a temporary pipe leak solution in place while you wait for a plumber.
To maintain a walk-in tub, clean it regularly with non-abrasive cleaners. Periodically inspect the seals, jets, and faucets to ensure they remain functional and in good condition.
Yes, a toilet, sink, and shower can share the same vent. This is a common plumbing practice that can simplify installation and save space. When sharing a vent, it's important that the toilet is located downstream from all other fixtures. You will also need to ensure the vent pipe is large enough to handle the demands of all connected fixtures without compromising its effectiveness. Because requirements can vary, you should always check your local building and plumbing codes. Consulting a qualified plumber is recommended to ensure the vent is properly sized, installed, and adheres to all local regulations.
