"Daniel did a great job. He took the time to help me choose a good name/grade toilet; installed and left both bathrooms clean. His helper was great too! Southern Plumbing is now my “go to plumbing business”! Thanks again!"

"They responded quickly. Day of the appointment the plumber/service tech called to ask if he could show up early. We appreciate that courtesy. He was very patient and explained the process to us in a way that we could understand what was going on. We would use them again."

"Very satisfied with the job. We talked on the phone, I got an estimate, sent some pictures, set up a time for the work. Installers arrived on time and finished the job in a little over an hour. Excellent work, personable people, glad I now have a plumber to call on should a service be needed."

"We had 2 bathrooms redone and are very happy with the final product! Our team, lead by Tate, was very professional and responded to errors and changes very graciously and promptly. The downstairs bathroom was made with a zero entry floor and I had them put a track system on the ceiling for a curtain since the space was small and I didn't want any glass. I have elderly parents and needed ease of use in the space. They stripped it down to the studs and put waterproofing on the entire floor, dropped the shower floor down to the joists and poured a custom shower pan. No curbs to trip on. In the Master, they removed my old huge jacuzzi tub, stall shower and block window, removed the wall and expanded my linen closet. Took out my old vanity and toilet and had a custom vanity built with A quartz countertop that we went and picked out at Stone. There were a few bumps here and there but the team met each challenge with a positive attitude and made sure I was satisfied with every step along the way. We are very happy with both bathrooms and will hire them again to do another bathroom in 2026."

"Short Pump is now my "go to" company for HVAC, plumbing and soon for some electrical work. This is due to my experiences with Chris. He is professional, respects my home and does great work. I ask for Chris for all HVAC and plumbing needs."

"Quality Remodeling did a great job remodeling both of our bathrooms. The workers showed up on time, cleaned up every day and consulted with us throughout the renovation on placement of plumbing fixtures. The subcontractor for the glass installation, Joey the glass guy, was very good. We are very satisfied with the work Quality Remodeling did and give them a 5 star recommendation."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

This depends on how old your home is and residential construction norms where you live. Most modern homes have outdoor shut-off valves, but many older homes have the water meter indoors. You're most likely to find this valve in the basement or utility closet if it's indoors. If you have an outdoor shut-off valve, it should be somewhere on the perimeter of your home.

The time it takes to fix a leaking pipe is determined by the location of the leak, the extent of the damage, and the experience level of the person completing this task. Leaks from exposed pipes should only take an hour or so, but that can increase to several hours if a significant section of pipe needs to be replaced. Pipes in walls or ceilings will take two to six hours, while complex underground pipe repairs can take multiple days.

For best results, you should remove the toilet in a bathroom before removing tile or installing new tile. If you don’t remove the toilet, it will be harder to fully waterproof the tile around the toilet, which could increase the risk of mold growth or plumbing leaks. If you have trouble removing the toilet, hire a plumber to help.

Depending on the issue, you have a good shot at fixing a leaking sink yourself. If you have some plumbing experience or are comfortable with DIY jobs, you can clean the P trap, tighten nuts, replace washers, and replace shut-off valve stems on your own. For more complicated jobs, such as repairing a garbage disposal, calling a pro may be the way to go.

Yes, an ambitious homeowner could decide to replace their own toilet. A person attempting to do a DIY toilet installation should keep in mind that the average toilet weighs between 100 and 120 pounds. That means that you'll need to be comfortable lifting and carrying your old toilet and replacement toilet during both phases of the project. Additionally, homeowners will need to have basic plumbing knowledge to avoid plumbing problems that could result in messy, expensive water damage in their bathrooms. Hiring a plumbing pro from the get-go can help you avoid damaging your plumbing or your new toilet.
