"As often happens my kitchen sink replacement started stacking up potential issues. The techs were very professional, keeping me informed of the potential issues and letting me know what they intended to do. Ultimately they would not give up and ended up making everything way better than I thought it could be. I even ended up with almost double the under kitchen sink space. Will 100% use them for future projects!"
"From the service tech to the installers, everyone was professional and great to work with. Gave me options up front and didnâ t pressure me. Already recommended them to family members. Grade A work."

"Kell did a great job! He was on time and worked efficiently to get the job done. He cleaned up after the work was completed and even went above and beyond by taking care of the mess the leaking sink had left on the cabinet floor. I will be calling on Cransten handyman and remodeling for my future needs."
"The folks I’ve dealt with at Groundworks have all been very high quality. Phil Ralph’s was our inspector and his very thorough inspection and estimate of repair was followed by Micah, Austin and Jaxon performing the repairs. All were great communicators and very hard working. Micah, Austin and Jaxon were willing to explain anything I asked along the way and Micah did a great job of recapping everything at the end. They were carful and very good about cleaning up, as well. Highly recommend the company and the people"
"I am incredibly impressed with 5 Star Kitchen and Bath. We had a leak in our shower, and were unable to simply repair the leak without ripping out a whole bunch of stuff. We decided to go ahead and update the bathroom and went with 5 Star. Kim was excellent in helping us design a bathroom that kept our current footprint. I am going to tell you it was quite expensive, (I'm still struggling with the cost of it, but it's part of life now I suppose) but you definitely get what you pay for. Ethan, Brady, Ron, Ben, and Austin did an excellent job. Communication in a job like this is key for a concerned homeowner, and these gentlemen always let me know what was happening and answered any questions I had. To be able to have one contact person and our new bathroom almost compete (waiting on custom shower glass!) in under two weeks has been amazing. I looked into doing the bathroom myself, but there was no way I had the contacts - or time - to go with a bunch of general contractors, plumbers, electrical, tile people, etc. Having one group complete the entire bathroom was so wonderful. I was comfortable having them in my home, and they cleaned up every day before they left. They even took care of my dog when she got a little clingy due to a thunderstorm. I would definitely recommend 5 Star to anyone."
"Fantastic service all around!! I had our HVAC system inspected and serviced and couldn’t be happier. Kyle was professional, thorough, and clearly very experienced. The dispatcher made scheduling simple and kept us informed every step of the way. Communication was top-notch, and the entire appointment went great. I would definitely recommend! Thank you."
"I thought getting ready for the virtual chat was a little difficult, but once everything was set up it was relatively easy and he was able to diagnose the problem. It was very cheap ($30)."
Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts
A well-installed wall-mounted faucet shouldn’t splash. That’s why it’s worth hiring someone with experience installing wall-mounted faucets. Beyond the installation, you should carefully choose the right faucet and sink combination. If your sink splashes after installation, you can try installing an aerator, which lowers the amount of water coming out of the faucet.
Yes, pop-up drains commonly get clogged with hair, soap scum, and toothpaste. It is important to know how to properly clean the drain or get professional help to ensure it remains clear and can drain water effectively.
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.
Frost-free hose bibs are undoubtedly worth the investment, especially in regions with freezing temperatures. While they may have a higher upfront cost than standard bibs, the expense pales in comparison to the cost of repairing pipe leaks or the cost of water damage caused by frozen and burst pipes. The added protection and peace of mind they offer make them a cost-effective choice in the long run.
Your home’s plumbing has three types to ensure safe water usage and waste disposal. You have your drinking water plumbing system, which sends clean water to your sinks, bathtubs, and other faucets; the sewage plumbing system, which removes wastewater from sinks, bathrooms, and appliances; and the drainage system, which helps with rainwater runoff control. Each system works to keep your home dry, clean, and functional.
