"I am writing to warmly recommend Precision Plumbing. They worked with me at Heron Woods Cottages in cleaning up a renovation job left incomplete by an incompetent local contractor. They reported directly to me in my position as Property Manager. They are a highly valued member of the cleanup of this disaster and have made a strong contribution in this job. I put a premium on great work and Precision Plumbing is a natural fit. The owner displayed an eagerness to help and a constructive attitude towards feedback. They quickly gained my respect and trust and are praised for their reliability and collaborative spirit. Precision Plumbing has a passion for quality and had a positive impact across a number of areas on the job site. I would not hesitate to hire them again. Their background and experience should be a good match for your construction project."
"Everyone; from the salesman that initially came in and explained the services offered, to the installer that completed the work; were completely professional. They efficiently removed the old shower and extended the original space to twice the size by removing a dead space wall. All of the wood and insulation was replaced and the plumbing updated. The final product is elegant and spacious. The installer in particular took great care to make sure that every evening after working that the space was cleared of clutter. When the shower was finished, he made sure to clean the space and returned everything to where it was before he came in. Everyday he would update us on how the install was progressing and when he would expect to be complete. Our new shower is everything we were promised and more. The extended size of the shower and the hanging glass doors gives the entire room an completely new feel and openness that was previously missing. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to update/replace their current bathroom/shower."

"Two shingles, which were improperly installed by the homebuilder, fell off the roof just before the remnants of a tropical storm came through. In addition, I was aware that the rubber seals on the plumbing vent roof flashings was deteriorating and needed to be fixed or replaced. I called Georgia at Spicer Brothers on a Thursday morning, and explained the urgency of my situation with the coming heavy rains. She worked with their projects manager to send a crew out that day. The repairmen who responded were experienced, and not only fixed the fallen shingles but also identified that surrounding shingles had been nailed improperly. They re-nailed several surrounding shingles and applied adhesive to reinforce the area as best as possible. The crew also installed permaboots over the plumbing vent flashings to prevent leaks. I was very happy with the service and price seemed reasonable, especially since they had to pull a crew off another job to respond to my emergency. I would definitely use them again for repairs and will look to them when it comes time to replace the roof. "

"Would be 5 stars based on the crew, but we had problems with the lead up to the job, which started 3 weeks late based on the salesman not understanding the scope of work and promising something that wasn't possible. The Friday before work was supposed to start, Gustavo (the supervisor) came to look at the job and let me know it would not be able to be accomplished the way we wanted. He worked with the Engineer (Scott) to figure out a way-ahead. Once the plumbers moved some interferences, the crew started. Eduardo (foreman) and his team (Jorge and Hector) did an expert job. They communicated each step of the way, were respectful of the inside of the house, took no shortcuts, and cleaned exceedingly well at the end of each day. These guys were top-notch! The best of the best! We were able to accomplish the first three of our goals: 1. Stabilize the house 2. Gain room in the basement. 3. Get lift to make the house [more] level. 4. Recover the existing beam for use over our fireplace."

"Workers were encapsulating our crawl space and accidently hit a pipe and it burst open! We had never needed a plumber at our vacation home so I had no one to call. Luckily I stumbled upon Benjamin Franklin Plumbing by asking our propane company for a recommendation and they were able to send Anthony out to fix it after hours but by the end of the day! Anthony was so kind, professional, explained everything to me and quickly took care of the burst pipe. Kudos to Anthony! Anyone that needs a reliable plumber should call Benjamin Franklin Plumbing of the Eastern Shore."
No, bleach will not harm PVC pipes. Assuming the bleach is not mixed with any other chemicals, you can dilute it and pour it down a drain that has PVC plumbing. Undiluted bleach won’t hurt PVC pipes, but bleach should be diluted before disposing of it by pouring it down a drain.
Most of the time, the answer is yes, but with an enormous asterisk. While an increase in iron deposits isn’t likely to harm you if consumed, that doesn’t mean you should drink any brown water from your faucets. In our book, it’s better to be safe than sorry and opt for bottled until the issue is resolved.
Bleach is generally not recommended for your shower drains. Although diluted bleach can technically help clean your drain, it will not unclog your pipes. In fact, bleach can harm your plumbing system because it’s so powerful. The bleach can change the color of your sink and even corrode metal pipes and fittings.
Often, people reach for bleach because it's already in their house. But it's worth getting a plunger or a drain snake for the job instead. It'll be a lot less money to buy a new plunger than to pay a plumber to repair or replace damaged pipes.
Plumbers will typically take one to two hours to install a new drain pipe, but that timeline can vary based on the area’s accessibility, the drain length, and the type of drain line. Replacing an easily accessible p-trap under a sink could take as little as a half an hour, while replacing a larger section of drain line behind the wall could take as long as three to four hours. When hiring a plumber for your specific installation, ask them to provide an estimated timeline to get a more accurate assessment.
It is best practice to hire a plumber to install a bathroom sink and vanity. Even simple installations require basic plumbing work, such as connecting water supply lines and attaching the sink to the drainage system. While an experienced DIYer might manage a straightforward setup, any complex work, like modifying existing plumbing or installing new lines, should always be left to a licensed plumber to avoid the risk of expensive water damage. In most cases, a plumber will handle the installation, provided it is a straightforward job that does not require custom carpentry. It's important to outline your expectations with the plumber beforehand to confirm they can handle the full project.
