"Excellent job by all I worked with. My wife even commented how every one from the dig crew to plumber we are very nice. I have building experience but it was nice that the first service tech walked me through the issues and even let me view everything he was viewing. Gave me three solutions and good/bad of each. When it comes to the actual work it was done exactly as discussed. No surprises and no hidden charges. Nice to work with a service provider that does what they say, no surprises, and put my yard back to original. I will definitely use them again for my plumbing needs."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Yes, a burst pipe is considered one of the most common types of home emergencies. Turn off the water supply to your house and call a local plumber the moment you suspect a burst pipe. Not only can a frozen or broken pipe leave you without water, but the break can lead to water damage, structural issues, and mold. 

In general, PVC (polyvinyl chloride), PEX (polyethylene), and copper are the three piping materials used in new constructions when adding water supply lines. There are some caveats. PEX and copper are considered ideal when running lines that will handle hot water because they are not at risk for melting and warping the way that PVC piping can. At $0.40 to $4 per linear foot, PEX is considered more affordable than copper pipes, which cost $2 to $12 per linear foot. PVC is considered appropriate in water lines for cold taps only.

Signs of a broken drain pipe include slow-draining sinks, tubs, or toilets; foul odors coming from the drain; damp or wet spots on your walls, floors, or ceilings; and gurgling sounds coming from the drain. In severe cases, you may also notice a sudden drop in your water pressure.

You can tell if a pipe is leaking behind your wall if you see bubbling, warping, water stains, mildew, or mold on the ceiling, flooring, or walls. Musty smells can also indicate a leaky pipe. Finding a leaky pipe in a wall can be challenging, so work with a pro to pinpoint the leak’s exact location.

If you have the necessary skills, you can attempt DIY plumbing installation for simple systems, but professional installation is recommended for complex systems to comply with codes and ensure safety.
