"I hired Jacuzzi Bath Remodel through an email add that I responded to. They got back to me promptly and their salesman Hunter was at my house within a week. They came and did the work which was demolishing two bathrooms and installing new shower stalls, vanities, flooring and toilets. I expected a crew of plumbers and carpenters, but TULIO and his helper did it all and to perfection. I absolutely love my new bathrooms, every time I shower I feel like I'm in a 5 star hotel. Thank you Jacuzzi!"

"We had an excellent experience from our first call for an estimate. Brian came out immediately to survey our roof and explained the process of both reroofing and working with Vista Home Improvement thoroughly. The estimate came back by e-mail later that day. The price was very reasonable for quality materials and when we called to schedule the work, Brian once again came out immediately to sign the contract. Over the next two weeks, we worked with Keith, the project manager. He was helpful and responsive. The roofing team was excellent. They were personable, very hard-working and efficient. They started on Thursday afternoon and finished on Saturday morning. The worksite was picked up at the end of each day and completely clean when they left and the roof looks beautiful. The whole process from estimate to completion only took about two and 1/2 weeks. Overall, Brian, Keith, and Kim in the office were friendly and efficient which made this a quick, affordable, and comfortable experience. We definitely recommend Vista Home Improvement and would use again for our other home improvement needs. "
Affordable Plumbers questions, answered by experts
Yes, plumber's putty ensures a solid bond between the drain assembly and sink. Silicone is a good alternative if you prefer not to use plumber's putty. However, plumber's putty typically isn't visible from the outside of the drain, as you can wipe away any excess when done.
A hose bib is typically located on an exterior wall of the home, about 6 to 18 inches from the ground or on a deck floor. It will have a top handle that you use to turn the water supply on and off. It will also have a male hose thread, or MHT, on the outlet side, where you would connect a hose.
According to the EPA, there is no safe level of lead in the blood, and so the maximum contaminant level goal (MCLG) for lead in water is zero. Even at low levels, lead is harmful to human health. It can also remain in the body and build up over time with repeated exposure.
There are three main types of shower valves: pressure-balancing, thermostatic, and diverter. Pressure-balancing and thermostatic valves are both considered mixing valves because they regulate water flow and temperature, but they do so in different ways. A pressure-balancing valve senses changes in water pressure, such as from a flushing toilet, and adjusts the incoming hot and cold water to maintain a consistent temperature; these typically use a single knob. A thermostatic valve uses a thermostat to precisely control the water temperature and requires a separate control to adjust the water volume. A diverter valve directs the flow of water from one fixture to another, such as switching from a tub faucet to a showerhead in a tub-shower combination.
No, you can’t convert a gravity-flush toilet to a pressure-assist toilet. Pressure-assist toilets include a tank-within-the-tank, and a standard gravity-flush toilet doesn’t have a capability to include the additional tank. If you want the benefits of a pressure-assist toilet, you’ll have to make the investment in a new one.
