"Great - Troy and Hunter were very professional. They cleaned up after themselves which was a big deal. This was not an easy install. The Water Softener that was installed was top quality. We have to work through a service contract for the upkeep and maintenance which was surprisingly very expensive. Like I said though - this was not your average Water Softener System and the original plumber had no clue about Water Softeners when the house was built. Wisler is unique in our area as they cover both HVAC and Plumbing. Previously we were working with 3 different companies to handle our HVAC and Plumbing needs. Reducing it to one does have value. Softener + New Filter to Front End Sediment + Services to Install was $7700. Maintenance contract I am told is $500 which was a bit of a shock but we are working through that."
"Very pleased with the work performed by Murphy Plumbing and Patrick Murphy was a delight to have in my home. Would call again in future for needed plumbing work and would highly recommend. Very professional and fair and reasonable pricing."
"Michael was very professional and knowledgeable. He took out my old bathtub and put in a new shower. He also had to add some studs to the wall and redo my plumbing. Work was done quickly and attention to detail was outstanding!!"
"Worked with several techs from Plumbing Champions on several occasions. All were professional, provided options and explained all well and the pricing was fair."

"My installer was meticulous and paid attention to every little detail. He did excellent workmanship and had pride in his accomplishment. I love the results and was glad I had the shower enlarged and the ceramic is beautiful. It is a pleasure to take a shower."
"Work will not be done for another 2 Months. Have to hire electrician to put in dedicated circuits for sump pumps and plumber to move the laundry sink."
While the drain connection for a garbage disposal is nearly universal and fits standard sink drain holes of 3 1/2 to 4 inches, the size of the disposal unit itself is not. You must have enough space in the cabinet underneath your sink to accommodate the disposal's housing. A larger model may not fit in a compact cabinet or if the existing plumbing is arranged in an unusual way. Before buying a new garbage disposal, measure the available space under your sink. If you are replacing an old unit, it's often easiest to choose a new model of a similar size.
There are several signs that can indicate you have air in your pipes, including unusual noises coming from the pipes, like banging and whistling, and inconsistent water flow and pressure. Spitting from the faucet right when you turn the water on is another indication that you might have air in the pipes.
Professional plumbers use many high-grade chemicals to unclog drains. Many use hydrochloric acid, known as muriatic acid, when it comes to extreme blockages.
Replacing a toilet costs between $275 and $480 in most cases, and the average cost sits around $375. This includes removing the old toilet and installing the new toilet. Your price could be significantly higher if you invest in a high-quality brand, need the replacement done on an emergency basis, or replace your toilet as a part of a larger bathroom remodel that demands additional work.
Pool leaks most commonly occur at joints or where different materials meet. The most frequent leak spots include:
The Pool Skimmer: Where the plastic skimmer meets the pool's liner or shell.
The Pool Liner: Tears can develop in vinyl liners, especially those between 5 and 20 years old. Leaks also occur around the liner's edge.
Fittings and Accessories: Areas around return lines, the main drain, and pool lights are common culprits.
Pool Equipment: The pump, filter, and filter housing can also leak.
While leaks in underground pipes are less common, they can be costly to fix. It's usually best to check the more common spots before investigating the plumbing system.
