Why Town ‘N’ Country Homeowners Call Formula Plumbing

The plumber doesn’t set your price.

Our technician finds the problem. Pricing comes from our office manager. Nothing gets done until you say yes. So the person under your sink has no reason to make a $200 problem sound like a $5,000 one.

We’re a local company, not a franchise.

Much of what you’ll find when you search for a plumber in Town ‘N’ Country is national franchises. We’re not one of them. We’re a Tampa Bay family business, and when you call, you reach our office, not a call center in another state.

We explain things in plain English.

Ask our plumbers anything. They’ll show you what they found, tell you what it means for your house, and give you the options. No sighing, no attitude.

Licensed and well reviewed.

Florida State Certified Plumbing Contractor #CFC1429779. Our South Tampa location holds a 4.9 rating on Google from hundreds of local homeowners.

Common Plumbing Problems in Town ‘N’ Country Homes

Cast iron drain lines reaching the end of their life

Cast iron was the standard drain pipe in Tampa homes into the 1970s, and it usually lasts 50 to 75 years. A 1965 Town ‘N’ Country ranch is right in that window. The warning signs are easy to miss: a drain that clogs again a few weeks after it was cleared, a sewer smell in one bathroom, or a crack in the floor tile that wasn’t there last year. We run a camera down the line before we quote anything, and we show you the video. Pipe that’s scaled but solid can often be cleaned or lined. Pipe that’s cracked or collapsed needs to be replaced, and we’ll tell you which one you have.

Slab leaks

Most Town ‘N’ Country homes sit on a concrete slab, with water lines running under or through it. When one fails, you’ll usually notice a higher water bill with no change in use, a warm spot on the floor, or the sound of water running with every fixture off. We find the leak with electronic detection and pressure testing before anything gets opened up. Pinpointing it keeps the repair small and the hole in your floor smaller.

Repiping older homes

After 50 or more years, supply lines wear out. If you’re fixing a new pinhole leak every few months, or your water pressure keeps dropping, patching may cost more over time than replacing. Homes built or replumbed from the late 1970s into the mid-1990s may also have polybutylene pipe, a gray plastic line known for failing without warning. We’ll check what’s in your walls and tell you whether a repair or a whole-home repipe makes sense.

Water heaters that wear out early

Tampa Bay water is hard. Minerals settle in the bottom of a tank water heater, and an unflushed tank loses capacity and dies sooner. If your heater is past 10 years old and the hot water runs out faster than it used to, it’s time for an honest look. We repair and replace tank and tankless water heaters, and we’ll tell you when another repair isn’t worth the money.

Roots in the sewer line

Many Town ‘N’ Country yards have trees as old as the houses. Their roots find small cracks in old sewer lines and grow inside. That’s how you get a main line backup in the lowest drain in the house. We clear roots with hydro jetting and check the line with a camera so you know if the pipe itself needs repair.

Colt was our plumber yesterday from Formula Plumbing. He did an outstanding job. The quote was honest and there were no estimate surprises. What we expected to be a fairly straightforward repair turned into a much longer and more complicated job, but he never rushed and did not stop until the problem was completely resolved.

It clearly required a great deal of patience and knowledge, and Colt handled everything professionally from start to finish. He was thorough, courteous, and respectful of our home, and he made sure everything was cleaned up before he left.

We really appreciated the time and effort he put into getting the job done properly. We also greatly appreciate Wade coming in with some extra tools to get the job done. I would absolutely recommend Formula Plumbing. Excellent.

Highly recommend Formula Plumbing! We had an unexpected issue at our rental property, and their entire team was absolutely wonderful to work with. From the office staff to every technician who came out, everyone was responsive, professional, friendly, and incredibly helpful.

They truly went above and beyond to make sure everything was handled quickly and, most importantly, done right. It’s not always easy finding a company you feel you can trust, especially when dealing with an urgent repair from out of town, and I was so impressed with the level of service we received.

Thank you to the entire Formula Plumbing team for taking such great care of us. We will definitely be using them again!

My 29 year old daughter bought a 1989 house in Clearwater that needed several services.Her work schedule and newness of home ownership led me to help from 2 hours away. Finding a good plumber was more daunting than finding a roofer or HVAC company. We wanted 3 proposals and Formula Plumbing in Odessa was selected because of their competitive price, timeliness, and the help of Frank, a kind, calm service manager who walked us through what we needed to know. An additional challenge was not being able to access the house until after closing for them to check things out, than having a tight time schedule before she had to move out of her old place.

The work she had done was to move the washer/dryer and water heater, to install a new water heater, expansion tank, new refrigerant line for ice maker, install a garbage disposal, replace the home shut off valve and exterior hose bib, plus shut off valves for all. Formula gave her discounts to bundle all the work which helped so much. Wade was the plumber and completed the work in a day and a half.
All of these items plus replacing roof, HVAC, and electrical panel helped to lower her homeowner insurance quite a bit.
After moving in, she had some knocking. We spoke with Frank who tried to help diagnose the problem and Wade returned for a free diagnosis. It seems to be high water pressure which they thought was odd in that area of Clearwater. She received a price for a fix, however, other expenses with the home mean this will have to go on the back burner.

We are very grateful to have found Frank, Wade from Formula Plumbing and hope to not have to call them anytime soon as we hope the house is in much better shape now. We would recommend them.

Company is amazing. Saw great reviews online before calling for a quote. Wade came out quickly and gave a great price for the repair of the sewer line and work in the master bathroom. The work started immediately and the master bath was fully functional and completed before he left for the day. All the work looked great, was done quickly, and the dug up yard was cleaned up so well it looked like nothing was ever done.

From start to finish the dishwasher and garbage disposal install project went well. Shelby, Frank, and service tech, Wade all communicated well and provided exceptional customer service. They did exactly what was expected and even checked out a few other concerns while there. We will be a return customer for sure.

I was VERY pleased to discover Formula One Plumbing after an internet search for plumbers in my area indicated they could tackle the specific jobs I needed which included annual maintenance on a tankless gas water heater & laundry room piping involving gas.
Their website offers a very convenient appointment portal where you can describe what work needs to be done. The next working day, I received a text message and follow up call to discuss my needs. Considering how busy we all are, I appreciated how efficient this was. Less friction = quicker home maintenance accomplishments!

The communication is excellent on all aspects..from thorough dispatch updates, quotes, ease of texting inquiries & follow up. These measures can be rare to find in the service industry and really shows the client they respect their time and energy.

Joe was very nice, competent and experienced. He offered great advice and also included my priorities in the troubleshooting process and offered different resolutions. He, along with Jacob, were tidy (wore booties) & very polite.
Pricing was fair & reasonable & more competitive if bundled with other plumbing needs.
I will use this family business again & refer them to friends.

Thank you for incorporating modern technology to help customers while keeping a personal touch to your business. 🙌🏼 You’re balancing it well.
