"Jeff had done beautiful work at my parents house so I was excited to use him for a kitchen remodel in my first home. He is always friendly, professional, and responsive. He can handle any kind of issue that may arise, such as the need to move an unexpected vent. For our kitchen he tore down a pantry closet and the soffit, installed new flooring, cabinets, backsplash, shelving, range hood, lighting. He has great recommendations and his attention to detail is impeccable. We highly recommend Jeff and his team for your project!"

We also provide advice on alternative solutions that can save time and money without compromising quality. Please call for availability, we do book out usually about a week.
"The painting went ok. The rug removal was done ok. While replacing the bath fan the ceiling was damaged around the fan. No one went into the attic to check the duct and we later found out the duct was not connected to the roof vent. The flooring was done too rushed and we have had to replace some boards. The stairs were a nightmare, spindles were cut crooked, nails sticking out, treads and risers cut on angles. We asked them to just stop work and leave, unfortunately we had paid them $5,000. They rushed thru the job because we were told they had a bigger job where they would make more money. We were told the stairs were so badly damaged they could not be salvaged. So far it has cost us $13,000 more to take out the old stairs, fix the flooring and the bath fan."

"I had an absolutely horrible experience with Alliance Repair. The technician assigned to my service was Farhan Rahman, and I’ve never encountered such unprofessional behavior. From the start, Farhan showed a complete lack of knowledge about the issue I needed help with. Not only was he late, but when he finally arrived, he was dismissive, rude, and seemed to have no idea what he was doing. Instead of offering solutions, Farhan acted as if my concerns were an inconvenience. His attitude was shocking and completely unacceptable for someone in a service-based profession. The job was poorly done, and I’m now dealing with more issues than I had before. This company and their technician, Farhan Rahman, have earned my complete lack of trust. I would strongly advise anyone to stay far away from Alliance Repair. If I could give negative stars, I absolutely would. Terrible service from start to finish!"

Whether you need a permit depends on your local regulations. Always check with your municipality before beginning the installation. Most contractors will handle the permitting process for you.
If your backflow preventer fails, dangerous contaminants can enter your clean water supply, posing serious health risks. You may notice signs like visible leaks, a sudden drop in water pressure, slow drainage, unpleasant odors, or discolored water. If you experience any of these symptoms, contact a professional immediately.
Signs of a failing backflow preventer include visible leaks, a sudden drop in water pressure, sluggish drainage, unpleasant odors, and discolored water. If you notice any of these issues, it's important to have your system inspected by a professional.
You might need a backflow preventer if you have features like irrigation systems, pools, or other water elements that could contaminate your water supply. Commercial and industrial properties are required to have backflow preventers due to higher contamination risks.
A backflow preventer stops water in your main supply from reversing flow and contaminating clean water. A backwater valve is installed in your drainage system to block sewage from backing up during heavy rainfall or overflow. Both devices protect your home but serve different purposes.
The time it takes to install a backflow preventer depends on the type of system. A plumber can typically install a simple backflow preventer, like those for a garden hose or appliance, in less than an hour. Installing a backflow preventer for a complex system can take up to a full day.
