"We discovered a leak yesterday afternoon on our toilet. We called Heaton Plumbing and they made us their first call this morning. In under an hour the problem was fixed. The two gentlemen that came were courteous and very professional! They even left me an estimate for future repairs that they saw we're going to need. Couldn't be happier with the service!

"Extraordinary, and I don't use that word often. Another company was supposed to replace my toilets. They were part of the install package from Home Depot. They were over 2 hrs late twice. And both times, they only sent one person to replace and haul away four toilets -- two of which are upstairs. One of the guys even admitted that he didn't feel safe doing this project on his own, and estimated that it would take him over 6 hours. I switched to MET based on my father's recommendation and Angie's List. They were more expensive, but I believe that you get what you pay for. Byron and Eric were amazing. They gave me a quote, then quickly replaced all four toilets in less than 2.5 hours -- including hauling away my other toilets. They left everything clean and pristine. They were very courteous and very professional. And they also fixed two of my faucets that were sputtering water as a bonus! MET as a company was also very professional. I canceled the other company today, called MET, and they sent Byron and Eric the same day. Just in time for a relaxing weekend before New Year's. I couldn't be happier, and will call them again."
"Bay Coast Plumbing did a thorough job. They arrived on time. They fixed the problem with the toilet, resealed it, then gave tips and advice for improving the plumbing throughout the kid's bathroom. They showed us how to save money, not spend it. I'd hire them again."
"Edward and Phillip arrived on time and went right to work. They had to cut some tile in order to make the toilet fit and did a very professional job. They explained what work was being completed as they went along and cleaned up after themselves as they went along. A very pleasant experience from start to finish. On top of this they were the lowest quote for the work. I would definitely use The Plumber out of Santa Fe Texas again."

"Experienced a blocked sewer line on a Sunday night that caused 1 shower and 2 toilets to back up. Blockage was diagnosed to be about the middle of the house as kitchen + laundry room + 2 bathrooms downstream of the blockage continued to drain OK. The initial company I called diagnosed the blockage as a broken sewer line beneath the house with a $55,000 estimate to repair by trenching under the house and replacing the line (they were reluctant to run a clean-out tool first). Called Abacus for a second opinion; tech was able to come out the same day. The blockage was confirmed to be in the same location as the original company found, but the tech could not confirm a broken pipe. Arranged for Abacus to come out the next day to attempt to clear the blockage and verify the condition of the sewer line by camera. Blockage was cleared - took 2 passes. Camera runs confirmed some low spots in sewer pipe, but no broken line. Worked involve removing 1 toilet to run the tool to clear the line, and to pull and re-seat a 2nd toilet due to blown wax seal. Overall job took about 5 hours with two technicians (Brett and Rick). The techs were punctual, friendly, knowledgeable (took time to explain and answer questions), professional, and they left no mess. Its only been 2 days since the repair, but so far, so good."
A toilet flapper will remain open when the chain that it is connected to is too short. The chain should lift the flapper just enough to allow it to open the rest of the way on its own. The chain should have just about half an inch of slack.
The Thanksgiving holiday period is one of the busiest times of the year for plumbers. Both Thanksgiving Day and the day after, often called Black Friday or "Brown Friday" by plumbing professionals, see a significant increase in service requests. This is because a house full of guests, large holiday meals, and unfamiliarity with the home's plumbing can lead to clogged drains, garbage disposal issues, and sewer line backups. Outside of the holidays, the busiest weekdays for plumbers are typically Monday and Tuesday, as many people discover plumbing problems over the weekend but wait to call for service. Despite the holiday, you can rest assured that many plumbers work on Thanksgiving and Black Friday to handle the surge in emergency calls.
Start by gutting the old fixtures and features that need to be removed, such as the tile, vanity, and flooring. You may benefit by removing the toilet, even if you intend to use the same one. Next, install the new shower or tub, followed by the flooring, and then the drywall, which you should then paint. After that, install your new cabinets, vanity, countertop, sink, and faucet, in that order. Replace your light fixture next. Lastly, reconnect the toilet.
The normal water level in a toilet bowl is about halfway full. The water should sit above the P trap drain because this creates a seal and suction. When you flush the toilet, the suction keeps sewer gases from entering your house through your toilet. Anytime the water level is higher or lower than half full, you need to make adjustments or replace broken parts.
