"Val Little with Irish Accents and Renovations project managed our kitchen remodel including installing our backsplash with 757 Cabinets installing the countertops. They were both very professional and brought in personnel (installers and plumbers) that executed the job brilliantly. I would highly recommend this company to anyone needing kitchen renovations."

"It was hard to rate this service. There were positives and negatives. I normally handle my own plumbing problems, but I'm getting old and crawling around to do plumbing is getting to be a problem. In this case, I had a problem that I was having trouble with and thought a professional might get it done with less collateral damage to the faucet. I assumed that a plumber would have better tools and some experience with my faucet (not a common model). Neither of these were true, and the lack of sufficient tools and supplies caused my low rating. I had already diagnosed the problem, so what I got was a good plumbing assistant with strong hands and a good back. I supplied some of the tools and supplies, and he made the repairs under my supervision. My problem got fixed, but it took a long time. On the positive side, the plumber was a hard worker and very personable. Furthermore, the charge was reduced based on my helping with the job, so I got a reasonable value for the visit."

"They were in did dimmo and fixed behind the walls, new plumbing by a master plumber, built the new shower. I was allowed to watch and take any pictures I wanted. They cleaned up better than I handed it over to them, and they were gone in a day. It looks great."

"How did it go? Most Excellently! 1. Responsiveness and communication – our initial inquiry got a response within a day. Throughout the renovation, communication was excellent, and there was always someone onsite who was in charge of the day. Everyone was open to our questions, suggestions, comments and new ideas, which allowed changes during the process which turned out to be great. 2. Design & materials selections –We met with the contractor's designer a few times to begin planning, talk budget, and explain our expectations, wants and needs. Next we met with the contractor who had additional suggestions and ideas which turned out saving us a bit of money. They were very familiar with the materials, supplies and various brands, and made recommendations based on what we wanted. Selection of materials was a fun process, looking at some in their office, or shopping for what was needed. 3. Quality & Punctuality - very good workmanship and attention to details such as with the various moldings and trim painting, and with tile work and grouting. They showed up when they said they would. 4. Project scope - The project included kitchen renovation, master bath and second bath renovations with floor plan changes, opening up the main floor plan, entire interior house painting, new floors throughout, and a few window and both exterior and interior door changes. We already had a lot of custom molding and trim work, and they were able to preserve it, or copy where needed to keep the same look through the house. 5. Professionalism – Everyone was always great. They were respectful to us, and our property. 6. Overall - We were pleased with every member of the team who worked on our project including the Tidewater Pro Build team, their electrician, and all the other subcontractors such as the masons, plasterers, and plumbers. From start to time of completion, a 12 week period was planned. It was extended only by three more days due to unexpected issues which were addressed to our great satisfaction. We lived in the house during the renovations which they planned in stages so we always had a working bathroom and shower, and bedroom, and made sure we stayed as comfortable as possible during the project. 7. We are very satisfied with the price we paid, and know it will greatly add value to our home. We’ve received many compliments on the work and recommend them highly. Trey and Caleb were a pleasure to work with, as was their entire team."

Plumbing FAQs, answered by experts

During plumbing work in Chesapeake, homeowners often encounter unexpected needs like code compliance upgrades, additional inspections, or repairs for hidden water damage. Local factors—such as high groundwater, hurricane preparedness, or the city's strict plumbing codes—can require extra steps. The Chesapeake Building Safety Department and the Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation both highlight the importance of planning for these local challenges to avoid project delays.

Helpful?

For plumbing projects in Chesapeake, PEX piping is highly recommended due to its flexibility and resistance to freezing, which is valuable in the local climate. Copper is also favored for its durability, while CPVC works well for drain lines. Given Chesapeake's humidity and proximity to saltwater, the Chesapeake Building Safety Department advises choosing corrosion-resistant materials and checking with local plumbing supply stores for code-compliant options.

Helpful?

Common mistakes in Chesapeake include skipping required plumbing permits, using incorrect pipe sizes, and neglecting proper venting. Homeowners sometimes overlook local plumbing codes or fail to plan for the area's high humidity and hurricane risks. The Chesapeake Building Safety Department and Virginia Department of Professional and Occupational Regulation stress the importance of soil condition assessment and ensuring effective drainage to prevent future plumbing issues.

Helpful?

In Chesapeake, plumbing permits are required for projects such as water heater replacement, new plumbing installations, major repairs, repiping, and any work on sewer lines. Both rough-in and final inspections are mandated. For the most accurate guidance, consult the Chesapeake Building Safety Department and review the Virginia Uniform Statewide Building Code, as both outline current permit forms and inspection requirements for plumbing work in Chesapeake.

Helpful?

In Chesapeake, always shut off water and electricity before starting plumbing work. Be cautious of gas lines, especially near water heaters, and ensure proper ventilation for gas appliances. The Chesapeake Building Safety Department and the Virginia Department of Health recommend checking for lead pipes or asbestos in older homes, and considering flood risks or hurricane preparation if your property is in a designated flood zone.
