"Had to completely repipe with PEX due to rotted pipes made in China. Ebert and his team did a great job and were very professional. Even the sub they brought in for the sheetrock work was great. Recommend!"

"Couldn't fix on the first visit as they needed to order the part.  It is an older tub/shower set up and initially he thought it might not be available. Fortunately they were able to obtain the part and it was repaired and is as good as new. Have been using Johnson Plumbing for several years now and they can handle any job...big or small. <br />"

"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."

"I called them and left a voice mail, which they returned within 10 minutes. They were booked up, for a couple of days, but when I told them that I was leaving on a trip, they were very accommodating and squeezed me in the next day. Josh showed up right on time and fixed the problem. Whole job took less than 15 minutes. Both Josh and his apprentice were very courteous, professional, and explained exactly what they were doing. I would definitely recommend them."

"It's been a little less than a year since we used their services so the date AND the cost are NOT accurate (the review forces one to fill those items out). And, I don't know the technical details but it seems to me that they snaked the clogged plumbing from the outside access. This may be a simple matter for some, but for us when are toilet wasn't flushing adequately (and we'd kind of let it go for way too long), they came and did the job promptly, quickly, and for a fair price (though the amount escapes me again). We would call them again. <br />"

FAQs for plumbing installation for a remodel or addition projects in Merced, 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.
