"I had a plumbing need in my basement. It was a leaky sewer drain stack. I contacted two different companies thru Angi's list. Both came to look at the job and quote it. John Morel came in almost one half the cost. The other company wanted to do extra things do do the job, seems that was to make it easier on him. John proved that it was not necessary. He was very professional, quick and did it right. Thank you Angi's list. I called them to verify his reviews. He is a 5 star plumber. I would definitely recommend him. John N"

"Put in new shower heads that met our needs. John was on time, gave us a fair price, left area very clean and wore booties over his shoes. Very congenial person. When he came to give us an estimate we explained our needs and he gave us choices as to how it could be done and gave us the pricing. Work was done as specified and pricing. Would recommend him and we would certainly hire him again.."

"I am so appreciative of his fast, efficient and most of all his honesty. Unlike others they were going to charge me a service fee, just to come to my house. I’m a stickler about reading reviews and most of them weren’t good through yelp. I highly recommend reading Pedro, very nice and personable, didn’t try and sell me unnecessary service. I would definitely call him again!!"

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

When tackling plumbing in Johnston, choose materials suited for the soft, slightly acidic water from the local reservoir. This water accelerates corrosion in older copper or galvanized steel pipes. You should upgrade any outdated galvanized pipes or lead solder joints to modern, code-compliant materials for safety. Additionally, always use cold-rated materials for exterior pipes to withstand the freezing RI winters.

Helpful?

Start by requesting a lead service line inspection, since older Johnston properties feature lead pipes. Next, assess your water heater, because the local acidic water accelerates tank corrosion. You should also verify your sump pump operates correctly to prevent basement flooding. Finally, insulate pipes in unheated areas before winter arrives to ensure your plumbing survives the freezing Rhode Island temperatures.

Helpful?

Cosmetic plumbing updates, like replacing a faucet, do not require permits and are safe for homeowners to tackle. Functional projects, such as moving drain lines or replacing water heaters, require permits and a licensed professional. Opening walls in older Johnston homes for cosmetic updates exposes hidden pipe damage and triggers strict lead paint regulations under Rhode Island safety standards.

Helpful?

Always hire a licensed professional for functional plumbing work, as Rhode Island law requires proper permits and inspections. You must also identify whether your home connects to the municipal sewer system or relies on a private septic tank. Renovating older Johnston homes reveals outdated cast iron or galvanized pipes, requiring mandatory upgrades to meet current safety and building code standards.

Helpful?

The cold RI winters create a high risk for frozen pipes in unheated spaces like garages and crawl spaces. You must install all underground plumbing below the 48-inch frost line to prevent freeze damage. Repeated freeze-thaw cycles stress pipe joints over time. During spring thaws and heavy storms, basement flooding is common, making a reliable sump pump essential for protecting your Johnston home.
