Best-1 Plumbing & Heating, Inc. was established in 2000 by Jeff Rucinski. Since then, our company has expanded to ten employees. This gives us the manpower we need to handle just about any job, but still allows us to be personally involved with our projects and customers. Area contractors appreciate the kind of quality service and workmanship they have grown to expect when they hire Best-1 Plumbing & Heating. We take pride in the quality of our work, and we know how important it is to get the job done on schedule. Builders know they can count on us when they choose Best-1 Plumbing & Heating to help in constructing their show-case homes. Best-1 Plumbing & Heating, Inc. has a pager system that our customers can utilize in an emergency, giving them peace of mind that their problem will be taken care of as soon as possible. We appreciate the opportunity to bid on your projects, both big and small, and look forward to working with you.

" I have done a lot of business with Best 1 over the last 20 yrs or so in servicing my home and my rentals and they have always charged by time and materials and been very reasonable.  Recently, I had a hot water heater changed out in my home.  To my surprise the bill came and it was billed as a lump sum of $1984. I was shocked to say the least.  This was for a 40 gal, 6yr warranty, reg gas water heater.  They can be found anywhere for under $575.  If you add in $100 for a couple of extra parts  and allow $100 for disposal of the old water heater (which is very generous) you have a total cost of $775. They arrived at 3 pm and left for 45 mins to go get the water heater from the shop, and were done at 5:00  ( 2 men). That is 1.25 hours working time. Allowing for the .75 hrs  to run to the shop, that's 2 hrs x 2 for a total of 4. 1209 divided by 4 is over $300 per hr. Buyer beware I have since gotten several quotes that were over 25% less. Not the company they were under the old owner."

Residential and business water treatment systems. Water softeners, UV lights. We will analyze your water for contaminants such as chlorine, low pH, iron, bacteria, and devise a system to suit your needs. Treat your water from the source, as it enters your home, so whether you are drinking it, cooking with it or bathing in it, your water is pure.

"The process was quick and easy. I just provided a water sample. It was determined that I had high levels of chlorine in our drinking water. I was able to solve my water problems with only one filter. Why did I wait years to have this done? Now I can be confident that our water is safe. Highly recommended."

Septic Tanks questions, answered by experts

The cost to drill a well varies, but the national average is around $5,500 for a 150-foot well. However, prices can vary significantly based on location, well depth, and other factors, so it's best to research potential fees to get a more accurate cost assessment for your area.

Most deep wells can be expected to last somewhere between 30 and 50 years. This assumes that the well and all of its components are properly maintained on a regular basis. During this time, it is unlikely that modern deep wells will run dry over the course of their typical lifespan. That is one of the biggest benefits of digging a deeper well. 

You only need to pump the septic tank. The leach field allows the liquid and waste to naturally seep into the ground, so there’s no need to pump the leach field. You should call a local septic tank pumping service to remove the materials from the tank every three to five years. Without pumping the septic tank occasionally, solids could flow into the leach field pipes and clog them.

There are many reasons you may want to extend the depth of an existing well or drill a new, deeper well on your property. A deeper well can tap cleaner water sources—shallow water may contain more contaminants. With a deeper well, you’ll also have an easier time reaching the water table depth (the level at which underground water is found) and can get past tricky soil conditions. 

Plus, if your local building code requires a minimum well depth for safety and environmental standards, you’ll meet the code by digging a deeper well in the first place.

Oversized well pressure tanks are not always a bad thing, but it is still better to opt for a tank sized more appropriately for your well to save money and space. The advantage of an oversized well pressure tank is that it can reduce frequent pump cycling to conserve energy.
