The problem with most "pros"? Too many bad habits. It's easy to get swept away in the day to day monotony, even for those that call themselves "pros". When it comes to hiring a heating and cooling technician, nobody wants to deal with being treated like a sale rather than a person, the use of scare tactics instead of education, or someone who just wants to get to job done quickly instead of correctly. All our HVAC pros go through 5 years of HVAC schooling, for a total of 10,000 hours of on-the-job training. And it's not just technical training either; it's training that focuses on you, on making you feel comfortable every step of the way. We will roll out the red carpet for you, both figuratively and literally. Red Carpet Treatment During every visit to a home, we lay out an actual red carpet to prevent any additional mess. But what may be even more important than just protecting your home is making sure you feel like you've received the best in customer service.
"Tim Calfo is a liar, a crook and does not deserve the privilege to own a business that serves the community. Do your homework before you hire this company. LONG story short, I purchased a new boiler system. I was promised the new system would work in the same manner as the old one, meaning my home was zoned for different areas with different thermostats (through circulator pumps). The technicians that completed the installation never took the time to learn how my home was setup and did not complete the zoning for the new system at the time of install. Instead of admitting their mistake, I was lied to multiple times and told my previous system was never zoned. (Which is a lie and verified by a 3rd party who has worked in this home prior to me buying it). Now, they want to charge more money to fix it because and zoning was not part of the original contract . This bait and switch type tactic seems to be a common theme for Calfo based on other reviews, they do this pretty often."

Warning signs include water stains on ceilings below your bathroom, musty odors around the tub area, or visible moisture around the drain connections. You might notice loose flooring, warped baseboards, or peeling paint in adjacent areas. To confirm a suspected leak, try placing dry paper towels around the drain components and checking for moisture after running water. Early detection can significantly reduce repair costs and prevent structural damage.
While minor, accessible issues might be temporarily addressed with DIY methods, most bathtub drain leaks require professional attention for lasting solutions. Amateur repairs often miss underlying problems or create new ones through improper techniques. Professional plumbers can properly diagnose the true source of leaks, which may differ from where symptoms appear. Proper repairs ensure code compliance and come with workmanship guarantees that protect your investment over time.
When performed by qualified professionals, bathtub drain repairs should last 10 to 15 years or longer. The longevity depends significantly on the materials used and your water quality. PVC repairs might last 25 to 40 years, while properly maintained copper can exceed 50 years of service. Regular maintenance, including avoiding harsh chemical cleaners and promptly addressing minor issues, helps maximize the lifespan of your plumbing system and prevents premature failures.
