"I couldnt reccomend Frank more highly.  I had been using a different plumbing company with fairly good results.  We had a leak and of course we needed it repaired quickly.  Our original company couldnt come out until the following week.   <br /> I have had a few different people reccomend Modern Plumbing.  So I called and Frank came out.  Not only was he pleasant and professional, he made a few suggestions and was quick to assess the situation and repair the problem. <br /> We will be using Modern Plumbing from now on. <br />"

"I had called 06/07/2015 to the 24 hour line, due to our air conditioner blowing out warm air. They came out the following day and checked our air conditioner out and saw we had a freon leak. He gave us all our options for it, and we went with replacing the whole system. They placed the order for us, and it took about 4 business days to get the system ordered in. They came out the following week to replace the whole unit. It took them about 4-5 hours to completely finish the whole system replacement. They were very fast, a good price and the customer service was fantastic! We will use them for our complete check ups from now on. and we recommend them highly. <br />"

"There was a pipe that had been broken. The man was able to locate the specific area on the property that was leaking and repair it then. EVERY ONE was wonderful to deal with. I will now give them all our business as we have rentals. Highly reccomend this company."

"I received my radon results in a timely manner. I did not hire them specifically, (so, I cannot say I would hire them again) the local company contracted them for this service. The home inspector I hired, handled this service for me and included the results in his report."

"We highly recommend them. He has been a wonderful plumber. He is very reasonable and always gives us a discount. He will come out late at night on his way home from work. We will call him early in the morning and he always responds that day whether it is early that day or late at night. He is average on pricing and his work is very good."

"The company was recommended by a flooring company that I trust. I called them one morning and, after I had initially scheduled their first available appointment for a day or two later, the plumber (Scott) was able to come by later the same day. The plumber evaluated the work, discussed cost-performance tradeoffs for the leaking valves and sink drain accessories, purchased the parts, and installed them and connected the sink and faucet. The work was completed in about 2 hours (including the time taken to buy parts). The system so far has been problem-free. The plumber worked very efficiently and was always helpful and courteous. He also was happy to take a few minutes (at no charge) to explain to me how to take care of some minor plumbing connection and repair issues on my own, as well as to give rough estimates for some larger plumbing work I was considering. <br /> The charge was on a time-and-materials basis, at $85/hr for labor. I don’t know if this is a typical labor rate, so I didn’t provide a rating for price. <br />"

"I was frustrated that they didn't cover our garbage disposal and they didn't cover the thermostat, otherwise everything we did there was great. I didn't have any problems. It's $50 a month, and then everything is covered. You don't have to pay for people to come out. When our hot water heater broke, we had to pay for the new water heater, but that just for the actual thing, not anything else like the service or installation."

FAQs for plumbing installation for a remodel or addition projects in French-gulch, CA

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.
