A hidden leak can cause water damage, mold growth, and higher water bills if left untreated. Some signs to watch for include:

• Unexplained spikes in your water bill – If your usage hasn’t changed but your bill has increased, you may have a slow leak.
• Damp or discolored walls, ceilings, or floors – Water stains, peeling paint, or bubbling drywall can indicate a leak inside your walls.
• Low water pressure – A sudden drop in pressure may signal a hidden pipe leak or blockage.
• Musty odors – Mold thrives in damp environments, so a persistent mildew smell can mean water is accumulating where it shouldn’t.
• Running water sounds when no fixtures are in use – If you hear water trickling inside your walls or under the floor, you may have a hidden leak.

If you suspect a leak behind walls, under floors, or in your foundation, a professional leak detection service can pinpoint the problem before it leads to costly damage.

Regular drain cleaning prevents clogs, slow drainage, and foul odors from forming in your plumbing system. While the frequency depends on your household’s usage, we generally recommend:

• Once a year for routine maintenance – Keeps buildup and minor blockages from turning into serious problems.
• Every 6 months if you have frequent clogs – Especially for homes with large families or frequent use of kitchen and bathroom sinks.
• As needed for stubborn clogs or backups – If plunging or store-bought drain cleaners aren’t working, it’s time for professional drain cleaning.

Signs that your drains need attention include gurgling noises, slow drainage, standing water in sinks or tubs, and recurring clogs. We offer hydro jetting and mechanical drain snaking to clear stubborn blockages without damaging your pipes.

Water heaters typically last 8-12 years for traditional tank models and 15-20 years for tankless systems. If your water heater is aging or experiencing frequent issues, replacement may be a better long-term solution. Here’s when to consider a new water heater:

• Inconsistent or no hot water – A failing heating element or sediment buildup could be causing efficiency problems.
• Rust-colored water – If rust is coming from your hot water taps, your tank may be corroding from the inside.
• Strange noises – Rumbling or popping sounds indicate excessive sediment buildup, which can reduce efficiency and cause damage.
• Leaks around the base of the unit – Even small leaks can lead to significant water damage and mean the unit is nearing failure.
• Frequent repairs – If you’re constantly calling for service, investing in a new, energy-efficient model could save you money over time.

We offer gas, electric, and tankless water heater installation, helping you choose the best system for your home’s needs.

A running toilet wastes hundreds of gallons of water per day and can significantly increase your water bill. The most common causes include:

• Worn-out flapper valve – The rubber flapper inside the tank may not be sealing properly, allowing water to leak into the bowl.
• Faulty fill valve – If the fill valve isn’t shutting off correctly, water will keep running into the tank.
• Overflow tube issues – If the water level in the tank is too high, it can continuously spill into the overflow tube.
• Loose or broken chain – If the chain connecting the flush handle to the flapper is too short or tangled, the flapper won’t close completely.

Most running toilet issues can be fixed with a quick repair by adjusting or replacing the faulty part. However, if you have an older toilet that is prone to frequent issues, upgrading to a high-efficiency model may be the best solution.

A burst pipe can cause severe water damage in minutes, so acting quickly is crucial. Here’s what to do:

1. Shut off the main water supply – Locate your home’s main shut-off valve and turn it off immediately to stop the flow of water.
2. Turn off electricity if needed – If water is near electrical outlets or appliances, shut off power to the affected area to prevent electrical hazards.
3. Drain your pipes – Open faucets throughout the home to relieve pressure in the plumbing system.
4. Contain the leak – Use towels, buckets, or a wet/dry vacuum to remove excess water and minimize damage.
5. Call a plumber immediately – Professional repair is necessary to replace the damaged pipe and inspect for further issues.

To prevent future pipe bursts, insulate exposed pipes in cold weather, repair leaks promptly, and avoid excessive water pressure in your plumbing system.
