"J&O Plumbing is professional and they provide quality work. Not only did install a tankless hot water heater for us, they also got rid of some older plumbing that needed replacing, installed our new garbage disposal, connected our new sink & dishwasher as well overhauled our bathroom plumbing and installed new fixtures! They were on time, courteous and the quality of work was excellent and they are very fair with pricing."

"My bathtub drain was clogged. Unfortunately, my trusted plumber of many years had retired and moved away. I looked around on the internet and somewhat randomly chose Fellowship Plumbing & Mechanical to call. Kyle showed up the next day and went to work with his power auger. Unfortunately, the bath being on the second floor resulting in lots of pipe twists and turns, the auger was unable to make the turns required to unclog the trap. The possibility now came up that he might have to come up through the ceiling on the first floor to unclog the pipe. That would have likely resulted in damage to the kitchen cabinets. So the possibility was there that this would cost me many thousand of dollars and great inconvenience. But "Wait" Kyle said, "I've got one last chance possibility". He left my house and returned a while later with a chemical only available to contractors. After 15 minutes or so, I heard a gasp of joy and the pipe was unclogged. The water is now draining at a rate not seen in years. Kyle recommended that I replace the bathtub drain strainer cover with a hair catcher strainer, which I have done. So, hopefully, I won't need a plumber in the foreseeable future, but if I do, I'll definitely call Fellowship Plumbing & Mechanical."

"Bill, the Owner came to my house the same day, which I really appreciated since I was without water. He did a quick fix with the pipe because my home water system broke and blew releasing a strong current of water that left a minor flood on that side of the basement until I turned the water off"

"Matt and his team came and got me out of a jam when every other landscaper I spoke with let me down. He did exactly what I needed him to at a price I could afford. There was no frustration, no b.s. To put it simply I can't recommend him enough and there's no doubt I will be using him for all my future projects."

"Steve was great to work with. Easy to talk to, understood what I wanted, knew what to do. Quality of the work is excellent. Price is very fair. I've recommended him to some friends who are also having issues with low water pressure in the City of Newport, RI. (we all live near the high point in Newport, so we get the lowest pressure).
I would recommend Steve and use him again.

"They had to dig out and replace a section of the cast iron drain out through the fieldstone foundation of my house and added an exterior access clean-out. They came on time, were courteous, did a fine job, and cleaned up afterwards. They also charged me less than the estimate! I was very pleased... I couldn’t 't ask for better."

"Dave was extremely helpful and super nice (and patient). We had some delays in our overall project and he continue to connect with me via phone and check in. The work in the basement was done quickly and neatly. I am so impressed with the Watchman team from Doreen in the office, Dave and the person who did the installation. You will not be disappointed with Watchman!!!"

FAQs for water main install, replace or repair projects in Newport, RI

If you notice puddles or standing water in your yard, a sudden drop in water pressure, cracks forming in your foundation, frequent clogs in your plumbing fixtures, or water that looks or smells unusual, you might have a leak in your main water line. These signs mean it's time to call a professional to evaluate the issue and prevent further damage.

A professional water main inspection is a comprehensive evaluation performed by a licensed plumber who checks every section of your plumbing system. The inspection costs $165 and uses advanced diagnostic techniques to identify hidden leaks or wear. This service clarifies the exact condition of your water main, enabling precise repairs that prevent future damage and ensure the overall health of your plumbing system.

Protect your water main by scheduling a cleaning and inspection every two to five years. The average cost of a sewer line cleaning is $400. It’s also important to never dig in your yard without first calling the dig line (811) to ensure you don't accidentally hit the water or sewer lines. Watch for soil erosion, low water pressure, or wet spots in your yard, and take immediate action if you suspect a leak. Remember, the longer you leave it, the worse the problem gets and the more costly it is to fix.

When properly maintained, your water main is engineered to remain functional for 50 years or longer. A durable water service in excellent condition should consistently perform without major issues for half a century. In contrast, metal pipes exposed to acidic soil corrode faster, whereas modern plastic pipes resist corrosion and function for decades beyond metal alternatives. Regular maintenance and inspections are essential for confirming your system’s longevity.

No, homeowners insurance does not cover the cost to repair a water main. Insurers fund only sudden, unforeseen events like a burst pipe and exclude gradual issues or normal wear and tear. Damage resulting from leaks, such as mold remediation or property claims, is not covered. It is essential to contact your insurance provider immediately to confirm your policy’s details and any potential adjustments needed.
