"Hildebrant's Plumbing was very quick to respond. The work was done quickly and priced very reasonably. The individuals we spoke with and who did the work were very professional. It was a small job, but I think I have found my plumber."
"A little high priced for a toilet repair. The stopper was not fitting on the seal when you flushed causing it to run constantly. $395 was a pretty high in my opinion for a $20 toilet kit. We should have done that ourselves. Water Heater did have problems and we were happy to get a new one and have installed. There again, paid a high price for water heater."
"The guys arrived on time & worked solidly till the work was done. They layed down floor covers case it was wet & nasty outside..I appreciate that. Rafael was the lead installer & he seemed to really know his business. The helper was very quiet & informative when asked a question. All my questions were answered & work done in a timely manner. I had hot water in 1 hr after they had left. Rafael explained everything about the new water heater to me & was very patient. I have no complaints whatsoever with the installation.
I do believe the cost of the heater was very high, but that inflation I guess. That’s my only complaint. Nothing to do with the installers. I do look forward to hopefully 15 yrs at least from this heater."
"The plumber, AJ, was professional and courteous. Brenda, customer service professional, was nice, understanding and patient. An honest operation. The installation was a success at a fair price. Also gave me a military discount. Will use their services again."

"We had a system installed earlier this year and it went well. The consultation and installation and everything went very well. Their price is actually very good."
"Lone Star did a great job on installing new water faucets outside. Price was good, they were very professional. However, I gave them a C rating because I called for an estimate on another job. They came out and were going to email me the estimate. After almost a week, I called and was told they hadn't gotten to it yet. I have never heard from them. I wasted time waiting for their bid, thinking that if it was reasonable, I would go with them since hey did a good job on the faucets. I will not call them again for anything. "
"Richard did a fantastic job! He made sure everything was completed within a reasonable time frame & worked very ho*** ** connecting the plumbing from downstairs to upstairs. We will definitely recommend him for anyone needing plumbing work."
"Arrived on time. Quickly performed an assessment of our sprinkler system. Fixed a minor leak in one of the sprinkler heads. They were very friendly and efficient."
Some sump pumps are powered by water rather than electricity. Water-powered sump pumps generally use one gallon of city water to pump out two gallons of water from its basin. Therefore, if you're looking at a potential 10,000-gallon flood, your sump pump will need to use 5,000 gallons of city water to prevent it.
Most sump pumps come with power cords that can be plugged into an outlet, but there are options that can be hardwired into a home’s electrical system. Either way, it’s smart to have a backup power supply in case the electricity goes out during a storm. That way, the sump pump can keep running and removing water from the sump pit.
If you’re wondering if your home even needs a sump pump, consider whether you’ve struggled with flooding issues in the past. If your house is in a flood-prone area, your yard has poor drainage, or you’ve dealt with any other water problems, then it’s likely well worth it to replace your old sump pump with a new one.
If you have a self-cleaning washing machine but you’re still seeing lint, your water pump filter might be clogged. To clean it, you should unscrew the drain hose, then remove the water pump filter. From there, you can inspect it and clean it with warm water before replacing it. Check to be sure your washing machine is functioning by running a short cycle.
Yes, you can add a battery to your existing sump pump. There are batteries available that can be plugged into your existing system; however, most battery backups come as a complete system and act as a replacement for your existing sump pump.
