"I needed a vent pipe rerouted in my attic, as the original design was not installed to let the water drain. Mike from Tom Drexler called to let me know he was on his way, gave me the estimate before starting work, and explained what he was doing and why. He was very knowledgeable and fixed the pipes quickly and made sure it was working properly before leaving. I was very satisfied with the service. The price was more than I was expecting but I am happy to have this fixed, as it was causing leaks in my kitchen ceiling and I should not have any other issues. I will be requesting Mike for any future plumbing issues."

"Bill Gorman .... <br /> Honest, punctual, dependable, and does great work (came first and capped 2 pipes so we can shower, and then returned to fix 7 bursts pipes after carpenter gave access. <br /> I waited a week for the bill, thinking it was going to be at least $1000, but it was only $450 <br /> Don't ask him for an estimate, it would be an insult as he is the least expensive plumber I ever met. <br /> <br />"

"We had an "emergency" on a Saturday morning where multiple toilets were backing up.  That condition prompted us to look for a plugged main septic pipe out to the tank or the septic tank itself had become overloaded with sludge.  We called Lex-Rooter around 9:30am hoping they could get to us today (and we live in the next county NE of Lexington.)  They were here within a couple of hours.  The service technician, "Nate", quickly identified that the main septic line was "full" and we either had a plug at the outlet to the tank or the tank was full.  We pulled the cleanout drain cap on the septic tank; the effluent was at a normal level.  So "Nate" correctly concluded that we had a plug in the main line. <br /> To get the most-direct clean-out route, it worked out best to pull up one of the other toilets in the house.  "Nate" did that very quickly and with no mess.  Then he started the drain cleaning process.  Unfortunately, what he found was a surprise.   Apparently the main pipe from the house to the inlet on the septic tank had fractured at some point (it's Schedule 40 PVC put in about 24 years ago) and some roots from a foundation bush had grown in there and allowed a root/dirt ball to form.  "Nate" 's drain cleaning device couldn't cut all the way through that mess but did open it enough to allow liquid to flow freely. <br /> So the good news is that we can use the bathrooms albeit watching how much water (and TP) goes down the drain for now.  The bad news is that we'll need to excavate that pipe and replace it which is more than Lex-Rooter does. <br /> But we were grateful we still had use of our facilities and that Lex-Rooter was prompt, professional, and conscientious particularly on a weekend.  "Nate" even gave us a little break on the price since he could "solve" the entire problem.  <br /> We'd definitely use Lex-Rooter again for a drain problem. <br /> <br />"

FAQs for plumbing installation for a remodel or addition projects in Frankfort, KY

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.
