Good work and went extra mile to cover septic cap with dirt when I said I could do that. Low price & responsive. Communication could have been better as I asked to be called when they arrived at my rental property so I could oversee but they didn't contact me. Minor lapse there. Overall good & would use them in the future.
Frequently Asked Questions About Macho Contracting
What is the first thing I should do if I have a major leak emergency?
First, locate and shut off the water source causing the leak. If you're unable to do this, contact a plumber immediately, regardless of the time. Once the water is off, assess the damage and proceed with necessary repairs. For extensive water damage, contact your homeowner's insurance after the plumber's assessment. Remember the order: turn off water, call plumber, then contact insurance if needed.
My kitchen disposal is stuck and is just making a humming sound. What do I do?
Kitchen disposals often jam due to overloading, improper items, or foreign objects like plastic utensils. Lower-end units are particularly prone to this. The humming indicates the flywheel is stuck. Important: turn off the disposal immediately. We strongly advise against reaching into the disposal to remove the obstruction yourself.
I'm not loyal to any plumbing company. What are some suggestions?
While plumbing is a costly trade, we recommend focusing on individual plumbers rather than companies. Build a relationship with a trusted plumber who understands your home's specifics. Be open about budget constraints; a good plumber will work with you on cost-effective solutions. A strong relationship ensures reliable service, even for middle-of-the-night emergencies.
How extensive does water damage to my home need to be in order for homeowners insurance to cover repair costs?
Consider involving your homeowner's insurance if repair costs exceed your deductible and out-of-pocket expenses would be substantial. Significant damage typically includes harm to floors, walls, ceilings, electrical systems, or cabinetry. If repairs extend beyond basic plumbing fixes, consult with your plumber about involving insurance.
I've used an unlicensed plumber before and it worked fine. Why not do that again?
While handymen can handle minor plumbing issues like leaky faucets, using unlicensed plumbers for major work carries risks. Unlicensed individuals may lack current code knowledge and can't be held accountable through formal complaints. This could lead to complications and additional expenses in the future. For extensive plumbing needs, a licensed professional ensures code compliance and accountability.

I am leaving out of town and I want to make sure nothing in my house has a major leak while I am out of town. What are my options?
To prevent major leaks while away, you can turn off individual shut-off valves at toilets, faucets, and in washrooms. For comprehensive protection, consider shutting off the main water supply to the entire house. If your home has a fire sprinkler system, ensure its dedicated shut-off valve remains on.
My house smells like a sewer and it's embarrassing when I have company over. Why are these smells occurring?
Sewer odors can stem from various issues such as cracked pipes, dry pipes, improper venting, or vent pipe location problems. Identifying the exact cause requires systematic testing and elimination. A smoke test is often the most effective method to pinpoint the source of sewer smells in a home.
What should I do first in case of a major leak emergency?
Locate and shut off the water source causing the leak immediately. If you cannot do this, contact a plumber right away. After turning off water, assess damage and call homeowner's insurance if repairs are extensive.
Why is my kitchen disposal making a humming sound and how should I respond?
The humming sound usually means the flywheel is stuck due to a jam. Immediately turn off the disposal and do not reach inside to remove the obstruction yourself.
