"My sister-in-law told me about Justin when I needed to replace a toilet. I called him yesterday, 2/18, and told him what I needed done. He picked up the new toilet, installed it perfectly and took the old one with him. I have never experienced a plumber like him: willing to help ASAP, professional, honest, personable and so kind! Finally…I have a great plumber!"
"It was a great experience. Preston was very personable and explained everything that needed to be done once he assessed the problems. He proceeded to fix the problem.(back up between the toilet and shower) with minimal ease and in a timely manner. I would definitely hire him again to do any other plumbing jobs in the house that needed to be done."
"Josh and his team installed a tankless hot water system into my new home. Josh was always super responsive, showed up on time and performed quality work. There was a small issue with a line in our house and he came out immediately to resolve it. Also had his team install two new toilets to our house. Highly recommend him and his team."
"Had a clogged toilet that just wouldn’t flush no matter what I tried. Called Honest Drain and they had someone out the same day. He had it fixed in about 30 minutes and it’s been working like new ever since. Can’t ask for much more than that. Highly recommend!"
"He arrived when he said he would and he was very kind and knew a lot about what he was doing. Did a great job fixing my drain and I will call him again if I have more plumbing problems."
"They replaced two toilets and a leaking shower valve all in on morning. Very forthright on what they must have problems with. Very professional service."
"Chris and his team were a pleasure to work with on our hot water tank and boiler replacement project. We are very happy with the results and look forward to working with them again on future projects."
"I highly recommend Mark for any of your plumbing needs. He was communicative, polite, kind, and informative. We spoke on Friday and he was at my house Saturday morning…no added fees for weekend work…in fact he was more than reasonable. He spoke to me professionally and gave me some helpful tips for keeping my garbage disposal running smoothly in the future. Added bonus, he was great with my dog who tends to be very “talkative” with unknown visitors. Can’t recommend Mark enough! I am glad to have a trusted plumber to contact should the need arise again."
Flushing the toilet only to realize it’s clogged can cause anxiety. To avoid a clogged toilet, use less toilet paper. If you notice that the toilet is flushing and refilling slower than usual, you can use a plunger to clear clogs in the S-trap. If that doesn’t work, call a plumber to check your system and possibly clear the drain lines.
Yes, pressure-assist toilets leak, but less often than regular toilets. You might experience leaks from your toilet due to worn-out parts, water pressure in your plumbing that’s too high or low, poor installation, or cracks in your tank. These toilets are harder to fix on your own than gravity-fed ones, so it’s best to call a plumber if you can’t figure out what’s wrong,
Replacing a standard toilet with an elongated one is straightforward. The two types can be installed using the same existing drainpipe and plumbing. If you have a small bathroom, make sure that an elongated toilet doesn’t violate local building codes for clearance, which is the space between fixtures and walls.
The average cost to replace a toilet seal ring is around $50 to $200 if you hire a pro to do the job. If you do it yourself, you’ll only need to pay for the supplies. Wax rings alone cost anywhere from $5 to $25 at hardware stores and can save you a lot of money compared to having a professional installation. At the same time, a licensed plumber knows how to properly install your new wax ring to prevent premature issues down the line.
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.
