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.

East Texas—the land between the Sabine and Trinity rivers—is Southern in character, with pine-covered hills, cypress swamps, and remnants of the great cotton plantations founded before the Civil War. Cotton farming has been supplemented by diversified agriculture, including rice cultivation; almost all of the state's huge rice crop comes from East Texas, and even the industrial cities of Beaumont and Port Arthur are surrounded by rice fields. The inland pines still supply a lumbering industry; Huntsville, Lufkin, and Nacogdoches are important lumber towns. The real wealth of East Texas, however, comes from its immense, rich oil fields. Longview is an oil center, and Tyler is the headquarters of the East Texas Oil Field. Oil is also the economic linchpin of Beaumont and Port Arthur and the basis for much of the heavy industry that crowds the Gulf Coast.
