Frequently Asked Questions
Let us bring peace of mind to all your plumbing needs with answers to our most commonly asked questions! Call to schedule plumbing service for an in-home inspection and straightforward estimate.
The average home will likely need to get its sewage system cleaned every 18 to 22 months. If you have a sizeable household (or run a business), then we recommend scheduling cleanups more frequently. You should also watch out for these red flags that indicate the need for immediate sewer line service:
- Sewage backups
- Fixtures make gurgling noises
- Persistent clogging or poor drainage
- Putrid odors throughout your property
- Pooling water
This is one of the most common FAQs because subpar water pressure can have several causes. First, we recommend removing your fixture’s aerators and checking for mineral deposits or debris. Scrub it with a soft-bristled brush to remove the buildup.
If every faucet in your home has low water pressure, we can inspect your main water line, check the pressure regulator, and search for leaks.
A poorly performing water heater can stem from many things, such as:
- Sediment buildup in the tank
- Improper installation
- Wrong size or model for your needs
- Component damage
We’ll inspect your heater and provide an assessment. Depending on the root cause, the solution can range from a quick tune-up to a replacement.
Drain cleaning is the process of removing superficial clogs in your drains and pipes using augers and hydro-jetting technology. Sewer cleaning requires a more comprehensive approach, as it involves clearing debris from your main sewer line underground, where all your home’s wastewater flows.
Different sounds from your sump pump can indicate a range of issues, including:
- Gurgling or running water: faulty check valve.
- Banging or “bouncing ball” sounds: auto-off switch set too high.
- Washing machine noises or grinding: impeller or fan failure.
