FAQs
How long does it take to repair my faucet?
On average, we can replace a faucet in an hour. Replacement is the only and best option for repairing leaky or dripping valves.
How do I know if my pipes are clogged?
If your toilet takes more than usual to refill after flushing, that’s one indicator of plumbing obstruction. Another sign may be excessive water pressure or noisy operation.
I need multiple projects done, can you do them all at once?
Yes, we are happy to work on several projects at the same time and your licensed plumber will let you know which ones can be done simultaneously, along with an accurate timeline for each project.
