"Our brand new system was not heating properly. Gary (FIVE STAR EMPLOYEE) came and fixed a problem. It was not straight forward and he had to do a bit of research, but he made it work better than it ever had!. He came back the next day and changed the filter and rec-hecked the system. We were warm and snug after his dedicated service! Thanks for the GREAT experience."

"I have lived in my house for 13 years and have had many contractors do work on the home. I’ve had the house roofed, sided, HVAC, complete re-wire, and some plumbing. Recently I had a medium/small sized plumbing job to complete. After meeting with several plumbing companies, I chose Spaid Mechanical. Aaron Spade (owner) took the time to study the situation and work with me on options. He also took the time to clearly explain how they would do the work, and this gave me confidence to proceed. The work crew was equally professional and took the care to do the work properly. I was glad that Spaid Mechanical was available to do the work, and would not think to ask anyone else to do plumbing work. I think I’ve found the best!"

"The team that came was on time, efficient, cordial, and no nonsense.  I thought my slow water flow would take major plumbing surgery, and they said they could fix it right then...and they did.  We also spoke about adding a utility sink in the basement by the washer.  I had an estimate last year that was crazy - over $800.  I asked our of curiosity, and they are going to install and run a water line for a fraction of the previous estimate.  I am a fan of Redbird; used them in the past, and now, I'm a dedicated customer.  <br />"

"It went very well. After a bit of a wait, I received a very comprehensive report of 88 specific items as well as bacteria, fungi and particles. Each Item detected over the EPA drinking water limits had an explanation sheet. Also provided was a contact person at the company to address any questions you had about the report findings. I thought the service was well worth the $300 just for the peace of mind. I intend to use the company on an annual basis going forward."

"The owner was very professional and curteous.  He took good notes and measurements regarding the work I was interested in having him quote.  I had explained to him we were wanting to place our home on the market here in a few years and were trying to spruce things up a little at a time.  He was knowledgeable enough to show us that our home would not meet the current electrical standards required in today's market.  We would not have known this was something we needed to take care of had he not pointed it out to us.  We will be having an update to our electrical connection to move us up to code. (Thank you!) <br /> I am still waiting for the quote, he indicated it might take about 2 weeks or so as he was busy and I had a lot of projects on my list. <br /> So far I am very pleased and would recommend them to anyone. <br />"

FAQs for plumbing installation for a remodel or addition projects in Lexington, IL

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.
