I needed a part to repair our kitchen faucet, and the usual hardware or big box stores had little besides washers and cartridges. I walked into Howe Brothers, showed him the part, and he had it on the counter in a flash. Amazing.

Howe Brothers sells tubs, toilets, etc but I and my friends have primarily used them for repair parts and advice. They have an excellent supply of plumbing parts for a variety of manufacturers on hand which beats even overnight service when you have a leaking whatever. They are also outstanding in explaining what you need and how to install it. They are worth their weight in gold imho!
Description of Work: Provide parts and advice.

I go to Howe from time to time when I have issues with plumbing.
Description of Work: This company is very trustworthy. Regent (not sure of spelling) is so very helpful and takes his time explaining things to customers. You might have to wait when you go into his store because he is a one-person shop so plan accordingly. He gives away much free and invaluable advice and diagnoses. His price might be a little more than Menard's or Home Depot, but he has much more inventory and will help explain.

Description of Work: Howe Brothers Plumbing is the place to go if you're a do-it-yourself plumber. They not only have the parts you'll need, but they will give you the advice and "coaching" you need do to the job correctly. If you have the ambition (or courage) to try doing your own plumbing, Howe Brothers should be your first stop.

It was super awesome. He has given me parts before from his collection. He gives great advice. He's helped me out with a lot of things.
Description of Work: He's helped me in the past. I had a broken plumbing part. They gave me the new part. It was inexpensive, but it was a part that you cannot purchase.

I shop at Howe for anything related to plumbing. His prices might be higher than some big box, but the advice for a DIY home owner is, well, priceless. You will not go wrong here. Several times over the past 10 years I've stopped in, intending to replace something like an outdoor faucet. I'd be ready to buy, and then he will say - and quot;probably nothing wrong with the one you have..do thisand quot;. And at the same time, if the part needed is minor, he just gives me what I need. So when I need a toilet, I will buy at Howe (even if I hire someone to install).

I am a do-it-yourselfer with three family older homes in town that I keep fixed up. For the past 20 years I have often gone to the guy at Howe Plumbing with the difficult stuff. Like the shower curtain rod suspended from the ceiling and modern shower and drain accessories to fit an antique claw-foot tub. He has the stuff in stock and explains the tricky installation snags to watch out for. When the office opens next Tuesday, I'll be phoning to get the lowdown on replacement anodes for hot water heaters.

Could a plumbing supply store be any more helpful, honest and informative? We've gone in many times, and our latest experience was a typical one; we went in with the broken part of your toilet, the nice person behind the counter guessed exactly what was wrong, and gave us a part that was better than the original, and showed us how to modify it so we didn't have to purchase a whole new kit. Walked out without spending more than $13. Also got some good advise on how to move forward with the replacement of a toilet in the near future, and he got us thinking about issues regarding the replacement of a tub faucet.
Description of Work: Howe's is a plumbing supply store, and they're very willing to help the do-it-yourselfer. Our toilet was running, and so we brought in the part that wasn't sealing properly. We also had some questions about replacing a toilet in the near future, and their thoughts/recommendations.

Brought in an old faucet from a clawfoot tub that dripped even after replacing the washers. They recognized the fixture as good quality and suggested they could fix it. They had a machine to grind the seats and provided some packing materials and good advice. They were able to repair the faucet the same afternoon I brought it in and I picked it up right before close. Worked like a charm!

He was very helpful in explaining the differences between PEX and copper. He made a recommendation for someone to help us with the work that we did not want to do ourselves, which was very helpful. And he made sure that we had all of the parts that we would need for the fixtures that we wanted, as well as hooking us up with some of the accessories (towel bar, etc). Overall a very good experience. And because we bought it all at once, he gave us a nice discount.
Description of Work: We purchased bathroom fixtures for two bathrooms. He also made a recommendation on someone to help with the drain work and some of the initial plumbing that we were doing. The rest of the plumbing work we did ourselves.

Great tips and advice and all around excellent service. Only downside is they are good and there can be a line to get help. The price of success I guess.

Excellent from Howe's to Chris Elke's plumbing. 3 day total from purchase to installation.
Description of Work: I called 5 other plumbers for estimations. He was happy to give estimate over the phone, but suggested I come in to look at toilet options (other companies just said they'd bring a toilet.) Toilet prices were comparable but the experience in the store and the explanation of different options was exceptional. Although They do not do the estimation, he referred me Chris Elke Plumbing. He was willing to do it for $100 about 1/2 the price others stated. Regan at Howe's was pleasant, helpful, informative, all while handling the 5 people waiting with acknowledgement and human. I would highly recommend Howe's Plumbing.

Regan is an amazing resource and an extremely patient person. You can walk in off the street with an old faucet part and he will know just by looking at it what kind of faucet it is and will have the part in stock. If he doesn't have the part or can t get it no one can. Then he will tell you step by step how to fix it and what to watch out for. He is a master plumber so has the experience necessary to tell you the right way to repair or replace broken plumbing. What is even more valuable he knows what plumbing fixtures are worth buying and will last and which ones are not. He even takes the time to explain how everything works and will try to find out what works best for you.
Description of Work: Gave advice on plumbing fixtures, toilets, and how to repair and install everything that he sells and even things that he doesn't have.
