"Austin and Corbin were our installers and they did a fantastic job! They quickly got the old shower out and had the new one installed and the bathroom cleaned up in less than 7 hrs. We LOVE our new shower and we wouldn’t hesitate to do it again!"
"What a nice and efficient plumber. He explained everything he was doing and got to it and got it done in a very professional manner. I will definitely call them if I ever have another plumbing need."
"Impressively quick service. Cody was very professional, responsive, and friendly. He explained the process, issue, and resolution. Very happy with this plumber and company."
"There was some miscommunication between the dispatcher and I but the plumber that came to my house explained the issue and rescheduled me for the weekend. I explained the urgency of filling in the trenches and he accommodated my schedule, he was great to work with. He spoke very highly of his company, not something you hear everyday from employees!"
"Ean Emery worked us into his busy schedule and replaced a kitchen faucet that was purchased and installed earlier this year by another service. We had bought that previous faucet from Amazon but it just wasn't the quality we had expected. And the installation was wanting, too --- it leaked into the cabinet beneath the sink. Very frustrating. But EMERY BUILDERS came through for us, answered all our questions, and was really wonderful. We recommend them with no reservations. And, yes, we will hire them again!"
"We are super happy with our tub/shower conversion to a walk-in shower. Everything about our transaction with Bath Planet was up to par from the excellent communication, to the installation by Robert (who is a perfectionist) and the high quality materials."
"Alex was very accommodating, amicable, competent and prepared to handle all the odd jobs that I needed done! He cleaned up everything after completion of the work, and charged a teasonable fee."
"Great service all-round! the sales person was great and really helped us with his knowledge and experience in choosing the right roof for our house & was very price competitive . coordinator the job was really good with keeping us update to date with the installation process and Elijah and the other installers did a fantastic job with installing our new colourbond roof which looks amazing. I would highly recommend."
Hiring an experienced plumber is key to a successful plumbing project and protecting your home from potential damages. Improper plumbing maintenance and repairs can lead to problems with sewage, flooding, your home’s foundation, and more. The work of a licensed plumber helps guarantee not only experience and expertise but also quality work, insurance, and adherence to local rules and regulations. Note that working with unlicensed plumbers doesn't automatically negate experience—as six states don’t require plumbers to have licenses— but it’s a safeguard to consider.
You can replace a spigot handle by unscrewing it from the outdoor faucet. Take the broken handle to a hardware or home improvement store. Ask for a new handle that matches the size of your existing one. Screw the new handle into the place and test the new handle to ensure it works and doesn’t cause any leaks.
Pipefitting is a more specialized profession, and pipefitters work with complex systems and low- and high-pressure pipes, so it can be considered harder than plumbing. Though each profession comes with its challenges, the nature of pipefitting requires working with heavier materials in fast-paced and dangerous environments, which can be more challenging than working on residential and commercial plumbing systems.
If methods like hot water or a plunger don’t work on your clogged drain, you can snake your drain to dislodge the plug. This can be a messy process, taking some physical effort and additional time over the other drain-clearing options. You can purchase a drain snake at a hardware store and choose from handheld options or those attached to a drill. Just work slowly, and be ready to call a plumber if you’re unable to reach the clog from your drain or P-trap.
While it’s possible to use an outdoor faucet in the winter, it might not be the best time to water your grass. Drawing water to your outdoor faucet increases the risk of that water freezing when you’re done with the faucet, especially if you don’t take the time to re-winterize your faucet. There are heated hose products you can buy to use in winter, but these can cost hundreds of dollars. It may be best to simply wait for the weather to warm up again.
