"I had the yearly maintenance check at two properties and have the same gentleman for both. He was very helpful and very professional, and taught me a few things that I didn’t even know."

"I wish this experience would have been better. Long process to get this install but gave benefit of the doubt because of the housing boom and supply chain issues. What really upset me was the install. The countertop went in fine but apparently the design we signed off on wasnt followed and backsplash came in more pieces than we agreed on. They had to come back a different day to complete. The 2nd crew that showed was as clean and meticulous as a grade school kid. Caulk all over the walls (and walls not associated with this counter), a chipped wall corner, caulk all over the countertop not cleaned, and the backsplash pieces not lining up to make it look like a $1100 product. I wish more care was given to the install, putting the pieces together, and the cleanliness of the finished product. Plenty of stone companies out there, look somewhere else folks."

"Called them to install a small vanity that I had purchased to replace a similer sized vanity in that spot. Connections were there but he had to leave and get another tail piece. Doors on vanity were not adjusted and handle on vanity was not installed. I was charged $550.76 for this work which took less than 2 hours (and included estimates for other projects, sic.) I had also wanted him to switch out older fixtures on a tub shower. He looked at it briefly and suggested I replace the tub ?. I said ok (I'm open to suggestions and money is not an issue) but then he looks and says he can't do it but an outfit like Tundraland might. ???? Duh? The plumber that I had in for recommendations before didn't see any problem switching out the faucet....and he didn't suggest pulling the tub and he DEFINITELY did not suggest using another company. I had also wanted information on converting a third bedroom into a bathroom. He didnt volunteer the info so as he was going out the door I asked him....too expensive, he says. Lol. He lost that remodel immediately. Thennnnnn....i received unsolicited text messages Saturday, SUNDAY, Tuesday, Wednesday ,and Friday wanting to know if I wanted to proceed. Huh? Proceed with what? I was still waiting for the RECEIPT! Requested the receipt, received the recept only to have the wrong service address on it. I texted back that despite using their services on and off over the past 20 years I would be using a different provider and to not contact me agaIn!!! Within 2 hours Hockers was calling me. ? Sooo we started out with 5 stars and subtracted one for their $250 per hour charge. Lost another star when he didn't install faucet on tub and suggested I contact another provider. Lost another star when he started walking out the door before he had given me BASIC info about converting a third bedroom into a second bath. Lost another star for 5 unsolicited texts before sending a receipt. Lost another star for calling me when I very clearly asked him not to contact me again. We're out of stars? That's too bad because I had more to say. I own and manage multi-family properties and can use a good plumbing provider. Hockers does not meet my needs and I won't be using them."

FAQs for plumbing installation for a remodel or addition projects in Appleton, WI

Adding bathroom plumbing to a detached garage starts with the basic line installation cost of $900 to $1,300. On top of this base expense, you'll need to budget for each fixture. A toilet costs  $250 to $550, sinks cost $150 to $800, and a shower or bathtub costs $400 to $1,900. The project will also require ventilation, moisture-resistant materials, and possibly electrical work. Remember that these costs reflect only the plumbing aspects—additional construction, finishing, and permitting expenses will apply to complete a functional bathroom space.

While certain aspects of garage renovation might be suitable for DIY enthusiasts, plumbing installation requires professional expertise. Connecting to water and sewer systems demands specialized knowledge and equipment, and improper installation can result in severe water damage, code violations, and potential health hazards. Most municipalities require permits for plumbing modifications, and these often stipulate that licensed professionals must perform work. Consider limiting your involvement to simpler tasks like painting or basic finishing work.

The timeframe for adding plumbing to a detached garage spans one to three days for the actual plumbing work. However, this represents only the active installation period. The complete project timeline must account for planning, obtaining permits (which can take weeks depending on your locality), coordinating multiple contractors if needed, and addressing any unexpected challenges that arise during installation. Weather conditions can also impact excavation and outdoor connection work.

Adding plumbing to a detached garage will likely increase your property taxes. Tax assessors consider plumbing an improvement that enhances property value and functionality. The specific tax impact varies by location and project scope. Converting a garage into living space with plumbing facilities can trigger significant reassessment in many jurisdictions. Before proceeding with your project, consult your local tax assessor's office to understand the potential tax implications and factor this ongoing expense into your decision-making process.
