Drain Cleaning Tips
When to Call a Professional
Most clogs start small. Use a drain strainer to catch hair and debris. Avoid pouring grease down the sink.
If drains stay slow, hydro-jetting can clear tough buildup. Professional drain cleaning prevents sewer line backups.
Water Heater Maintenance
Extending Your Heater's Life
Water heaters typically last 8–12 years. Flush the tank yearly to remove sediment. Check the pressure relief valve.
Signs of trouble include rusty water or strange noises. Call us for water heater repair before it fails completely.
Sump Pump Care
Preventing Basement Flooding
A sump pump moves water away from your foundation. Test it every few months by pouring water into the pit.
If the pump runs constantly or doesn't turn on, it may need repair. We can install a backup system for extra protection.
Toilet Repair Basics
Fixing Common Issues
A running toilet can waste up to 200 gallons of water per day. Check the flapper and fill valve first.
If the toilet won't flush properly, the issue may be a clogged plumbing vent or a faulty shut-off valve. We handle toilet repair.
Pipe Insulation for Winter
Protecting Your Pipes
Frozen pipes are a leading cause of winter plumbing emergencies. Insulate pipes in unheated areas like basements and attics.
Pipe insulation is inexpensive and easy to install. If a pipe bursts, turn off the main shut-off valve and call us immediately.
