"We had a new home in which builder installed low quality parts that started to malfunction after warranties expired. Joe fixed the toilet, sink, and bathtub issues. He then installed a water softener and filtration system that addressed Pottstown hard water issues. He and his team include a master plumber, master electrician, and chemic specialists. They are friendly, courteous, and happy to explain and teach you about their service, products, and how to maintain. They do not believe in oversell. They match products to customers needs. They are honest, knowledgeable, reasonable and fair in their service and product pricing. They do go the extra mile for customers, something that is rare in customer service these days. Absolutely will continue using for maintenance and future plumbing needs."

Customers say: True professional

"My family and I absolutely LOVE our new shower. Joe and his team did a tremendous job and we highly recommend them. They were professional, knowledgeable, hardworking, and courteous from beginning to end. The cost was reasonable and as quoted, even though they had to do some additional work along the way due to our old home/plumbing system. They explained everything in detail and made sure we were satisfied every step of the way. The finished product is beautiful and we could not be happier!"

"CalCo Design and Renovations is fantastic to work with! We engaged them for a bathroom remodel and window replacement. Their processes were smooth and structured from sales to installation. They provided frequent communication on the status of the project (Val) and provided a point of contact for any questions/issues. The installation team was phenomenal! Very skilled, professional and friendly. Drew, Wendell and Jared worked tirelessly and were very respectful of our home. We enjoyed working with them. The results are demonstrative of quality product and workmanship! We love our gorgeous new bathroom! For any future projects, CalCo will definitely be our first call!"

"They did a great job, cleaned out clogged pipe but later it was again not working they came back and were here till 830PM and made sure all was working and only charged us for first visit. We need to get our old cast iron pipes replaced and we hired them to do the job. The price quoted seemed reasonable and fair. If you need a plumber I highly recommend this company"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

For plumbing projects in Reading, freeze-resistant materials like PEX piping are highly recommended due to the region's cold winters. Copper is also common, especially in older homes, but PEX offers flexibility and durability against freezing. Local plumbing supply stores in Reading can advise on materials that handle the city's unique soil conditions and moisture levels, ensuring your plumbing system is well-suited for the area's environment.

Helpful?

Reading's cold winters increase the risk of frozen or burst pipes, making pipe insulation and proper placement essential. Heavy spring rains can stress sump pumps and lead to basement flooding, so regular sump pump maintenance is crucial. Seasonal temperature swings may also cause older pipes to expand and contract, potentially leading to leaks. Planning for these local weather patterns helps extend the life of your plumbing system.

Helpful?

In Reading, permits are required for most plumbing work, including new installations, major repairs, and water heater replacements. The Reading Building and Trades Division oversees permitting and inspections, which typically include rough-in and final inspections to ensure compliance with local plumbing code. For historic or older homes, additional steps may be needed. Always verify requirements directly with the Reading Building and Trades Division before beginning any project.

Helpful?

In Reading, hidden costs often stem from discovering old lead or galvanized pipes that require replacement to meet current code, as enforced by the Reading Building and Trades Division. Additional expenses may arise if water damage or mold is found during repairs, or if temporary water shutoffs are necessary. For older homes, restoring disturbed walls or floors after plumbing work is another common, unexpected step to consider.

Helpful?

No, homeowners should never attempt to fix a gas leak themselves. Gas leaks pose serious health and fire hazards. Exposure to leaking gas can make you sick, and accumulated gas can ignite and explode. So always take leaks seriously and seek the help of a pro right away. While you may be able to detect a gas leak, always call a licensed professional to handle repairs and replacements.
