"Mr. Bill Tucker, was outstanding. He arrived on time, was extremely courteous and went straight to work trying to find the source. Once he located the problem he quickly repaired the leak and while he was there I asked him to look at another problem and he simply replaced a new water pressure valve. Long story short, I will continue to use Bergen for my plumbing needs because of the good professionalism Bill Tucker showed for Bergen."

"GREAT!! Scott from Dalton's is a true professional who knows his trade and how to keep our equipment in great running order. I trust Scott and would not call anyone else for service to my heating and cooling. I take great piece of mind by being on the Service Contract with Dalton's for heating and cooling needs. They check out my system 2 times per year and make sure that everything is in working order. I never feel pressured to buy anything and always have the final say if they recommend a piece or part. I believe the annual maintenance is great and would not go back to waiting till something breaks down. Remember, it never breaks down on a good day, only when you need A/C or Heating in the dead of Winter. Scott and Dalton's are excellent for service!!"

"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."

"Our kitchen sink and laundry tub empty into the same branch line, that has a tendency to get clogged. This time the blockage was farther than our 25 foot snake.  Dion came out the same day I called.  He had the drain flowing freely within 20 minutes!  And he did it for a very reasonable price!  I would recommend his services to anyone with drain/sewer issues! <br />"

"We had a walk in shower installed and they were professional, clean, and did an excellent job. Explained everything they did and gave us a sample so we could use it to buy new items for the shower."

"They found a defective wire connector. The AC was a new install just over a year ago so technically out of warranty. The connector was obviously bad from the very beginning but they insisted on charging me $80 for the repair. They would not even talk to me about it. UPDATE 9-7-17 This is submitted as an addition to a previous review about an $80 charge to replace a wire connector. When the owner found out about it, he was very apologetic and immediately refunded the $80. Apparently his staff didn't notify him of the problem."

"Things I liked: David and his crew were extremely polite, personable, and professional. (The "three ps" of a good contractor.) They were willing to work around my schedule, particularly because of the later start. These guys were fast...like really fast. Got my job done in a day! Everything was explained to me, and I got some instructions on care and limitations of finishing over top of their trenches. They came back to do some brief touch-up work the next day, and left everything clean and tidy. David even worked around some of the goofy stuff in my basement. You know, the stuff you might find in a 100+ year-old house. All of the various drains, services, and pipes were left untouched, which is impressive because some of them were veeeeeery close to the perimeter where they were installing the drain. Lastly, my basement is now dry. Had a deluge of rain immediately following the work and I have not seen a drop! :D Things that could be improved on: Price - I mean, a price can always be lower, but their price is definitely fair for what is included. Their system was more expensive than some of their competitors, but there were several things about it that I preferred over others. Punctuality - The digital appointment card I was sent was for 8 AM so I was under the impression that they would arrive then (or soon after). I called at 9 to check in and was told they'd be there at 12:30 PM. This was not a problem for me, but I wish I had been told that earlier. Granted, the appointment I was sent could have just be left at the default time. Either way, not a big deal, but a bit of miscommunication. Bottom line: David and his crew were excellent. I would hire them again. My basement is dry. :D"

"We had a few hiccups due to bad planning on the salesman's part, but the foreman Dillon and his crew were amazing. I am having them come back to install a second pump for our system. The foreman saved the day and went above and beyond the call of duty. I will recommend them in the future. It is worth every penny we spent on it."

FAQs for plumbing installation for a remodel or addition projects in La Porte City, IA

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.
