"Ok, I can't really Say I hired them. But during a holiday We called our home owner insurance and they sent out a plumber which quoted us $7000 to repair our Main Water Leak. I paid them for the service call ; and sent them on their way. I call Straight Flush Plumbing the following hour not realizing it was a holiday. Kevin and I texted almost half the day July 4th scheduling a time to come out. During a Storm I was greeted by the service guy which informed me that the problem was a coupler on the water meter. I could have been out $7000 dollars but they were truthful to tell me the issue was in the hands of the city. I was grateful to only pay the service fee; but I would have given them more so here is my recommendation. 5 stars."

"These guys are GREAT!  I would highly recommend them.  I had a big job and they completed the work on time and exactly as planned.  There were no surprises and I felt like I got a great deal.  They did such an amazing job that I feel like I have a whole new home.  They were always on time, courteous, reliable, trust worthy, and they added a great deal of value to my home.  I could go on and on about how wonderful this company is and I am a very picky customer!  If you are considering a kitchen or bath remodel, please call Bret or Vickie and have them come out and give them a chance.  I don't regret using them one bit and can't wait to start my next project with Granite Transformations of Nashville."

"I highly recommend American Home Design. Karol was my installer. He was 5 Star all the way. After the first day I went up to see how it was going, the bathroom was so clean I was in disbelief. He finished the next day and the shower is amazing. The doors will be a few days to get here because I had open door instead of a sliding door. It?ll be awesome when they install the doors."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

No, putting new plumber’s tape over old plumber’s tape is not recommended. The old tape connection may not be completely adhered and could cause a leak. 

Instead, remove the old tape completely, clean off the pipe threads with a clean rag and wire brush if needed, then apply new plumber’s tape to make your connection.

You cannot replace a shower valve without turning off the water. Always turn your water off before doing any kind of plumbing work—and this project is no exception. Turning off the water is a best practice for personal safety and to keep things in your home dry.

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

A water hammer refers to the banging or knocking sound you hear in your water pipes after you turn off your faucet or when your washing machine or dishwater fills. This happens when highly pressurized water suddenly stops moving in your pipes due to a valve closing or your well pump shutting down quickly. Try adjusting the pressure setting on your water pressure tank—it should be below 50 psi (pounds per square inch). Or have a plumber install a water hammer arrestor.

A back pressure valve is a control valve used on production vessels, such as separators, treaters, and free water knockouts. The valve holds pressure until a set point is reached, and then releases upstream pressure to reset. Back pressure valves are not safety mechanisms. Instead, they are regulators designed to keep the fluid, gas, or liquid mixture in a system at a certain pressure level to prevent bursts and other incidents.

Meanwhile, a backflow preventer is a safety mechanism that kicks in when the pressure has already failed and contaminated water flows in the reverse direction. Most backflow preventers consist of two one-way valves, or check valves assembled together. This design only allows water to pass through in one direction but not the other.
