Water Heater Repair
Specializing in gas, electric, and tankless water heater repairs, we address sediment buildup, faulty components, and safety code compliance. Our technicians diagnose issues like rotten egg smells, pressure imbalances, and aging systems to restore efficient hot water delivery. With annual flushing recommendations and anti-siphon device installations, we extend system lifespans while ensuring safety.
Leak Detection
Using pressure testing and advanced diagnostic tools, we locate hidden leaks in walls, foundations, and underground lines. Our team identifies moisture indicators in yards and addresses slab leaks through strategic rerouting. From minor drips to catastrophic failures, we minimize property damage through precise detection and immediate repair solutions.
Sewer Repair
We repair sewer leaks by identifying surface moisture signs and probing suspect areas. For underground issues, we employ tunneling techniques to access damaged pipes beneath foundations. Our specialists handle both PVC and cast iron systems, offering complete drain replacements or targeted repairs to restore proper wastewater flow.
Commercial Plumbing
Addressing complex commercial systems, we tackle underground leaks requiring extensive excavation. Our team handles large-scale repairs for parking lot and industrial property leaks, utilizing specialized equipment to minimize business disruption. From multi-story buildings to retail spaces, we ensure code-compliant solutions for all commercial plumbing emergencies.
Slab Leak Repair
For leaks beneath concrete foundations, we perform pressure tests to isolate affected lines, then create access points for repair. Our two-phase approach includes leak containment and overhead rerouting through attics or between floors. When necessary, we employ tunneling crews to access and replace damaged sub-slab pipes in both residential and commercial settings.

Questions
Why are anti-siphon devices required for second-floor water heaters?
Anti-siphon devices prevent water heaters from draining during supply interruptions, avoiding fire hazards from dry-firing units. Required by current plumbing codes for safety.
How do you detect slab leaks?
We use pressure testing and acoustic listening devices to pinpoint sub-slab leaks. Once located, we cut access holes in walls to isolate affected lines and reroute water supply through attics or between floors.
What causes recurring faucet leaks?
Drippy faucets typically result from worn rubber cartridges in valve bodies. Left unrepaired, constant dripping damages brass valve seats requiring more extensive repairs.
Do you offer emergency services?
Yes, we provide 24/7 emergency plumbing services for urgent issues like burst pipes, severe leaks, and water heater failures across our service areas.
How long should gas water heaters last?
With annual maintenance, gas water heaters typically last 8-12 years. We recommend replacement over costly repairs for units exceeding this lifespan.
