Plumbing Maintenance

Plumbing maintenance is cheap compared to plumbing emergencies. A $150 visit and a water heater flush is a better day than a $2,000 tank failure on a Saturday. We do annual maintenance visits that catch problems while they're still small.

What we handle

• Water heater flush to pull sediment out of the tank
• Main shutoff valve test — because a valve you've never turned may not turn when you need it to
• Fixture check: faucets, toilets, angle stops, supply lines
• Visible pipe inspection for corrosion, drips, and condensation staining
• Drain flow test on every fixture and a look at cleanouts
• Toilet inspection — flapper, fill valve, tank-to-bowl seal
• Water pressure test at an outside hose bib
• Hose bib and outside spigot check before winter
• Washing machine supply hose inspection (these fail and flood laundry rooms)
• Water heater anode rod check on units under warranty

Signs you should be on maintenance

• You've had more than one unexpected plumbing issue in the last two years
• Your water heater is 6+ years old and has never been flushed
• You've never closed the main shutoff since you bought the house
• There's a toilet that ghost-flushes in the middle of the night
• You travel or own a second home that sits empty for stretches
• Your insurance is asking about water-loss prevention
• You're a landlord and want a paper trail on each property

How we do it

1. Schedule an annual or semi-annual visit that fits your calendar
2. Run through a written checklist so nothing gets skipped — and you get a copy
3. Flag anything we find with a cost estimate, sorted by "fix now" versus "watch, plan for next year"
4. Do the maintenance items on the spot: flushes, valve exercises, minor tightening
5. Leave you with a service record. Useful at resale and useful for insurance claims

Residential, commercial, or new construction

Residential maintenance fits most homeowners — one visit a year, catches most issues. Commercial maintenance is much more involved and scheduled to the business: backflow testing, grease trap servicing, and pre-season checks on restrooms before busy seasons. New construction doesn't need maintenance yet, but we'll recommend the first visit a year after move-in.
