"Classic Plumbing Solutions was easy to work with and did what they said they would do in a timely manner. They are conscientious and I would recommend them."
It went well and the job was thorough. To prepare the original cost estimate, I met Ruckersville Roto Rooter's Robert Watson at the home and we discussed the project and his recommendations. Afterward, Mr. Watson called and we discussed how it went, and he even went back to the property after our conversation and put an additive in the distribution box to r***** future root growth, advising me what to buy and how often to apply it, myself, in the future.
I was very impressed by the professionalism of both Mr. Watson and Kelley at the office, who answers the phone and helped set up the appointment for estimate, and followed up with the video, and I am very appreciative of their responsiveness. I will definitely hire Ruckersville Roto Rooter for future plumbing needs.
"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!!"
"Chris, Luis and Travis were great!They were easy to reach and quick to visit us (despite our post-snowstorm driveway conditions). They all communicate well and ensure an understanding on both sides every step of the way. Travis and a colleague were both courteous while in our home and did a nice, clean install of a new water softener and sediment filter. We’re very happy with the service we received so highly recommend Plumbing Champions!"
"Very professionally completed my walk-in shower with safety bars, pull down seat, etc. Friendly, great on cleanup, and determined to satisfy customer."

"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."
"I hired Don’s Home Improvement’s LLC to remodel my bathroom.I’m very pleased in the material he suggested I could use. He was very thorough in detecting a few hidden problems that were corrected, and now there will be no future issues. I was always shown damaged material so I knew exactly what was being replaced. I would highly recommend Don’s Home Improvement’s LLC and one of his employees John, who did a fantastic job!"
No, it’s not safe to use a blowtorch or any open flame to thaw pipes. The intense heat can cause the pipe to burst and/or start a fire, leading to very costly damage. Instead, use safer external heating alternatives, such as heat tape, a space heater, or an infrared lamp.
If your toilet is still leaking after replacing the toilet flapper, then you may not have installed the toilet flapper correctly. Double-check that you have placed the flapper over the overflow tube correctly, and check the flapper chain is at the right length. If your toilet is still leaking, then you may have another problem on hand. For example, you may need to replace the toilet wax ring or replace the toilet fill valve if your toilet is wobbly and leaking from around the base.
In general, PVC (polyvinyl chloride), PEX (polyethylene), and copper are the three piping materials used in new constructions when adding water supply lines. There are some caveats. PEX and copper are considered ideal when running lines that will handle hot water because they are not at risk for melting and warping the way that PVC piping can. At $0.40 to $4per linear foot, PEX is considered more affordable than copper pipes, which cost $2 to $12per linear foot. PVC is considered appropriate in water lines for cold taps only.
The best option is to alter the plumbing. Moving and centering the drain pipe behind the sink usually does the trick and creates the sleek, minimalist look that pedestal sinks offer. If you don’t want to do any plumbing work, there are a few decorating hacks:
Painting the pipes
Placing shelves, plants, or baskets in front of the pipes
Adding a sink skirt
To unclog the drain pipe, remove the machine's drain hose from the pipe or sink drain, being careful to contain any water in it. Next, use a plunger for sink drains or a plumbing snake for a wall drain. Test the repair by pouring a small amount of water into the pipe before trying it with a laundry load.
