"The overall experience from beginning to end was very professional! I received a prompt response to my request for removal of our gas line. Henry was very polite and kept me informed of the progress of the job with updates and pictures/video of the piping in the crawl space. He even went over and above and fixed our gas leak in our kitchen! I would truly recommend About Plumbing! Thank you."
"The Seatown team did a great job. I got quotes from 3 different recommended plumbing services, but the Seatown guys were the only ones who recognized we would need to upgrade our gas meter. They did a great job explaining how to get this scheduled with PSE. The estimate Seatown gave was on par with some of the other plumbers, so we went with them. They sent 2 service people to come and install the tankless and the guys were just excellent. I expressed concern about mounting the water heater on the beams in our basement because Our house is so old, so they came up with a better solution. They built a small wall frame to mount the water heater. No extra cost. When they found there was no outlet wired near the heater they were able to get an electrician from Seatown to come out and wire one up while they worked on the water heater install. Seatown aldo had a good scheduling method, sent text reminders the day they were coming to do the work with a photo of the person who was coming and a short set of info about the person. It was a nice touch, and a thoughtful safety measure. They did a great job with the install which took several hours. I’d definitely hire them again."
"The professionals who came made a thorough assessment of what needed to be done. The job was split between the plumbing techs according to their expertise, and each part got completed satisfactorily. I appreciated their honesty regarding what could be fixed immediately and the estimate for a bigger sewer-related job in future. The charges are reasonable. SEATOWN seems like a very organized company, their call center staff is friendly/polite, they follow through on scheduling appts."
"We are very happy with our new Jacuzzi shower. It is a great upgrade from the 30+ year original shower we had been using. Our installers, Austin and Corbin, were excellent. The idea of turning over our bathroom to them for two days was somewhat intimidating, but they were very prompt, professional, and personable, and kept us informed as needed every step of the way, answering any questions we had. They were very careful about keeping the pathway to the bathroom clean, minimizing any debris while taking out the old shower, and completely cleaning up when finished, hauling all removed materials away. They also were very thorough in leaving us contact information if we have any concerns requiring follow-up, which we do not anticipate needing. We would not hesitate to use Jacuzzi's bath remodel products and services again!"
"Arrived on time. Looked over the job and gave estimates ranging from minimum required repairs to long term inspections with long term warranties. Prices were reasonable for the work required. Job was completed quickly and satisfactorily. Service people were friendly and explained what was required and how they were going to fix the problem. Work area was cleaned up nicely when job was finished. I will hire the next time I have plumbing problems. Recommended."
"This firm specializes in shower stall/bath tub redos. They do not have full capabilities to redo a full bathroom. Thier estimates are not itemized. Their cost seems very high. We passed on them as we needed someone to do the whole bath room."
"John's Waterproofing was the only company to respond. They were prompt, the person reaponding was knowledgeable and explained things in every day language. We will be using this company again."
"Last Thursday my water heater started to leak so it needed to be replaced. On Friday I searched for plumbers in my area on Angi. Alex, the owner of New Moon Handyman and Plumbing, contacted me the next day. He installed my new water heater on Monday. In addition to being prompt, Alex offered me a bid that other larger companies would likely not have been able to match. In my conversations with Alex it became obvious to me that he is a person of integrity. I highly recommend New Moon Handyman and Plumbing to anyone in need of such services."
"Excellent response time, and the team were very professional. They identified and fixed the source of our leaking roof and the prices were quite reasonable. I definitely recommend Near Me Roofing Company."
Running water can help melt ice inside the pipe, but only up to a certain point. If your pipe is frozen solid, adding water will not likely resolve the issue. Water will begin to flow through the affected pipe once the area is heated by a plumber, signaling the issue is getting resolved.
The size of the pipe you use for your shower depends on the part of the shower you’re installing. Shower drainpipes have a 2-inch diameter, and the water supply lines (both hot and cold) have a ½-inch diameter. You may want to slightly increase the size of the vertical pipe if you have dual showerheads. Check the local building code prior to installation for guidance.
When buying caulk, look for ones labeled for tub and tile. These have either acrylic latex or silicone compounds. This allows the caulk to stick to smooth surfaces and prevent mildew from forming.
No, rough-in plumbing isn’t usually required for minor bathroom changes. However, if you’re taking on the cost of a bathroom remodel and require plumbing work, hiring your local plumber to replumb your home is best. Rough-in plumbing is only ideal for new construction and full-blown renovations.
If your wall is wet, but there isn’t a leak, it’s likely a result of humidity and condensation from running a hot shower or cooking in the kitchen. The best way to remedy this issue is to run the fan in the bathroom when you’re showering or in the kitchen when you’re cooking. You can also use a dehumidifier to help remove moisture from the air.
