In addition to unstopping drains and installing bathroom fixtures, your plumber can hook up washing machines, dishwashers and gas appliances. He or she can also install gas lines and shut-off valves, add drains for HVAC units, install water-based heating systems and install storm drains.
When you are choosing your plumber, get several estimates. Once you have narrowed the field, ask these questions:
-How long has he been in business and what is his plumbing specialty?
-Is he experienced with your type of project?
-Can he supply copies of licensing, liability insurance, worker’s comp insurance, and bonding?
-What warranties does he offer?
-What references can he provide? In addition to asking about work quality, make sure the plumber was tidy and respectful of the work environment.

The eastern part of the commonwealth (its official designation), including the Cape Cod peninsula and the islands lying off it to the south—the Elizabeth Islands, Martha's Vineyard, and Nantucket—is a low coastal plain. In this area short, swift rivers such as the Merrimack have long supplied industry with power, and an indented coastline provides many good natural harbors, with Boston a major U.S. port. In the interior rise uplands separated by the rich Connecticut River valley, and farther west lies the Berkshire valley, surrounded by the Berkshire Hills, part of the Taconic Mts. The western streams feed both the Hudson and the Housatonic rivers. The state has a mean altitude of c.500 ft (150 m), and Mt. Greylock in the Berkshires is the highest point (3,491 ft/1,064 m). The climate is variable.
