Frequently Asked Questions
What’s going on with my water bill?
When your water bill is surprisingly high, there can be a few possible culprits. One common reason for water waste is a running toilet, especially in a bathroom you don’t use often. This common problem can add up to $100 to your bill over the course of a year. If you have just one leaking faucet, you could be sending 300 gallons of water down the drain without realizing it.
While a plumber is usually best equipped to help you troubleshoot these common scenarios, you can also start on your own by checking all your outdoor faucets. You or another family member may have inadvertently left a faucet on just slightly, especially if it’s hooked up to a hose that you can’t see dripping. Another place to check is inside of your toilet tank, down where the flapper rests. As time goes on, this part can deteriorate, leading to a running toilet and other related problems.
Another area that is common for water waste is our irrigation system. You can do a quick assessment of your sprinklers by watching each station run, making sure all the heads are functioning properly and not broken. Once each station has run for its normal time period, check afterward to make sure there are no leaks making some areas wetter than others. Although a sprinkler problem is never good news, ABC’s plumbers can work with our experienced technicians on any needed repairs.
Are ABC plumbers able to install plumbing equipment or parts?
Absolutely! New parts are a very simple upgrade to your kitchen or bathroom, but only if you have the time and tools handle them on your own. Many homeowners enjoy picking out accessories, but soon realize that they would rather spend their weekends doing anything other than plumbing installation. When you get annoyed at the pile of boxes in your garage or closet, give us a call. Our skilled plumbers can get in and out quickly, so that you can rest assured that your water heater, toilet, sink, garbage disposal and water softeners will be up and running again. While we’re at it, we are happy to put in new fixtures and faucets. We’re also happy to give you honest advice on when it’s cost-effective to make repairs versus investing in new equipment or an appliance.
What can I do on my own if I have a clogged or slow drain?
One of the most residential plumbing problems is clogged drains. What should you do before you call an ABC plumber in?
Try the following:
- Perform a visual inspection after you have removed the stopper from your bathtub or sink. A flashlight can come in handy to spot anything that’s stuck in your pipe, like a children’s toy, debris or hair. Remove any of these materials and throw them in the trash.
- Slowly add an enzyme-based drain opener into your tub or sink which can break up any clogs past the part of the pipe you can see.
- Follow the drain opener’s instructions by putting the recommended amount of hot water down the drain to see if the clog is now cleared.
- If that doesn’t work, use an auger to get further down into your pipe to find and resolve the obstruction.
A majority of homeowners don’t have an auger on hand and decide at this point it’s time to call in the pros. When you call ABC, you’ll have someone on your doorstep who can get to the bottom of your problem fast and avoid doing any damage to equipment or pipes which may lead to more costly and time-consuming repair work.
What happens when a plumber needs longer for my plumbing work than originally anticipated?
In the vast majority of cases, our plumbers will finish their work on time. If a problem pops up unexpectedly, we will be in touch with you about an extended timeline for the work to be done. Our plumbers will not work on an expanded scope or any additional costs until we get your approval.
In the extremely unlikely case that major repairs can’t be wrapped up and your plumbing will be impacted overnight, our customers benefit from our Comfort Guarantee. What this means is that ABC will cover the cost of your family to stay at a hotel until work is complete, at no cost to you.
Our guarantees are in addition to any manufacturer warranties that may cover the parts and equipment you purchase for installation through ABC.

“Dustin, the plumbing services department manager, and Santiago, Plummer, were fantastic to work with. Santiago repaired a water pipe leak in the garage and he was communicative during the repair process and respectful to the property. During the repair process, there was a small issue that couldn't get fixed so Dustin took over and resolved it on his own. Thank you and I highly recommend the ABC plumbing.”

“ABC replaced my water heater. It started to leak on Friday and they patched it for the weekend. First thing Monday morning they were here to install a new one. Improved the drain system at the same time. Very professional and efficient. I highly recommend them.”
