"Forever Baths recently remodeled our bathroom and we’re very happy with the results! From start to finish, Chad was incredibly responsive to all my questions, providing clear and timely communication. In addition, the work was done at a fair price, which we greatly appreciated. The project included installing a bigger shower, reframing a closet and adding doors, and replacing the vanity. The new shower is not only beautiful, but we love our raindrop showerhead! The reframed closet and new vanity have significantly improved the overall look and utility of the space. I highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a professional and efficient remodeling experience."
"I am very happy with Monarch Plumbing. Very friendly, professional and did a great job! Arrived on time. He let me know up front exactly how much everything was going to cost and I really liked that. Very affordable for the work being done. He did a great job cleaning up after the job was complete. He will be my go to plumber from now on and I will be recommending him to family and friends."

"Very polite salesman who went over the work choices we could do and gaves us several options to choose from and price quotes on each option. The workers were very friendly and hard working. They showed us what they were going to do as they went along in the process. That part was very interesting to see what they were going to do and we could ask questions as we went along then. We did the who outside drainage work and foundation waterproofed. Put in a new back up sump pump and did a whole perimeter drainage system and braced two walls. We were very impressed with the work and all the workers. I would recommend them to anyone."
"Craig and his crew are great. I first came to know of Happy Home Contracting when my father was battling a terminal form of cancer. I saw Craig's truck down the road and I needed some help remodeling parts of my father's house that had been deeply abused by renters. Craig was reliable, charged a fair price, and does really quality work. He helped recreate a bathroom upstairs that really previously looked like it was from a slum house. The final result was something beautiful, modern, open, and full of light. He is easy to work with. He is someone that I trust deeply. And someone you can feel good about talking through concerns or questions throughout the process."
A water pressure regulator, also known as a pressure-reducing valve (PRV), is typically located near the main water shut-off valve where the main water line enters your home. Common places to check are basements, utility areas, or outside near the water meter. The device is usually bell-shaped. Its purpose is to control the water pressure coming into your home from the public supply, protecting your pipes, plumbing fixtures, and appliances. If you can't find a regulator, your home might not have one. In cases of high water pressure, installing a PRV is recommended.
Never ignore burst pipes, as they dump heavy loads of water in their wake. This excess moisture can lead to ruined appliances, an abundance of mold, and issues with your home’s electrical system (and so much more). If you suspect a burst pipe is wreaking havoc somewhere within your system, do not hesitate to contact a professional plumber. Pipe replacement costs much less than mitigating serious water damage or structural issues.
While gasket-sealed PVC flanges are the type most commonly found in homes, flanges come in a range of different materials, including copper, brass, stainless steel, cast iron, and aluminum, that pros sometimes secure with glue. If this is the case in your bathroom, the replacement is a job better left to the pros.
Yes, you can water plants with water softened with potassium chloride. Potassium is a vital nutrient for plants, so using this type of water is harmless and can even be enriching. It is often a better option than water softened with sodium chloride, as too much sodium can build up in the soil and make it difficult for plants to absorb the water they need. If you notice that your plants are not tolerating the treated water, try letting it sit in a watering can for one to five days to allow the chlorine to diminish.
Prices for shower drain styles vary. For example, a linear shower drain costs about $200 or more for the part alone compared to about $15 for a circular shower drain. Also, linear shower drains typically require a shower remodel to use them, so you may pay a few hundred dollars more for labor. Read about the pros and cons of linear shower drains.
