Were you placed two bathroom groups originally in cast-iron with brand new for PVC, the kitchen and laundry line were updated to 3 inch PVC for future reliability. Additionally two toilets, two bath and shower combinations, as well as the main leading out to the house. We did not replace approximately 2 feet of cast-iron near the foundation wall as it is in poor condition and cutting induce leakage. The customer was informed and agreed to address this section when it fails in the future. We also replaced the original, failed PRV. Two PRV‘s were then installed want to reduce pressure from 160 psi to 90 psi, and the second one to bring it down from 90 psi to 60 psi. All systems are tested and confirmed to be leak free.

Client called us out today due to their t&p valve on the 6 yr old water heater dripping onto floor. Checked water pressure and it was 85 psi, which is higher than the safe range of 50-79 psi. Due to the high pressure, the thermal expansion tank had failed also on the water heater. It was decided best to replace the water heater with new of same model, giving customer a new 6 yr tank warranty and 1 yr labor from us. New unit was installed up to code in a pan with properly supported thermal expansion tank, new ball valve shutoff, and new copper piping. We also replaced the failed pressure regulator with new of same model and added a new ball valve to shut water to home off if needed. Set pressure to 60 psi. Water heater is working as it should be with no issues as well as pressure is now at a safe range.

Came out for gas leak. Gave quote for air test and repair. Notified homeowner we can’t relight water heater as the vent is installed so incorrectly, it is a huge safety hazard to have it lit. Gave options to replace the water heater as there’s no way to make a gas water heater work in the crawlspace with a metal venting system. Homeowner declined service as I would not relight the water heater after we were done repairing the gas line.

We came out yesterday due to a sewer line backed up into the home. We opened the clean out on side of home and inserted camera. Got about 35’ out and couldn’t go anymore, of course under water. Located it directly below a large pine tree in the front yard. We had to get it cleared so we got the jetter and jetted the line out to get it flowing. After clear, i put camera back in line and got to the same point as last time and I could see a section of broken pipe and a large root ball in the pipe as well. Again, directly below the large pine tree. The rest of the sewer line had 0 issues to the tap. Returned today to dig up the sewer line we located yesterday. After A LOT of tree roots and about 5’ of digging we were right on top of the problem section. Had to cut a lot of roots around the pipe and then was able to cut and remove the section of pipe. We repaired the pipe with a pvc repair coupling and a 4” husky band and secured. Bedded pipe down and then backfilled the hole as best we c

This customer came out to her house to figure out an issue with the laundry drain line. It goes PVC into a cast-iron stack. However, the bathroom next to the washer and dryer was flushing and draining just fine so I believe it was just an issue with the standpipe going into the cast-iron stack after doing my further investigation I believe I was right. I recommended that we use a flex shaft to clean out the pipe to get all the debris out and I pulled back some cast-iron remnant however the cast-iron is not leaking. It is in between a shared wall between the crawlspace and slab so in order to replace that we’ll have to bust up the slab and go into the crawlspace to make that replacement With that in mind I was able to clear and clean the standpipe and the lateral line going into the stack with the flex shaft and then once I finish cleaning out that pipe, we ran a cycle on the washing machine to make sure that it was draining properly and it dumped down the drain line twice with no back

Customer complaint was for slow draining toilets after thorough investigation determined a full line blockage gave customer options for on stopping customer approved, ran machine and camera found mainline stoppage and cleared. Cast-iron is in really rough shape. We recommend replacing with PVC. Customer understands also found water psi to be extremely high. Customer also understands leaving water like this would likely cause damage to fixtures left estimates for re-pipe and for replacement of PRV

Customer had toilet in bathroom that was backing up. Ran the sink to determine if the bathroom group was backed up or just the toilet. Didn’t see any indication if the whole bathroom backing up. Pointed out toilet scarring to the customer and recommended replacing toilet rather than snaking since that won’t have any long or even medium term benefit for her. Customer declined work at this time.

Customer had a sewage ejection pump that was taking long cycles. Customer said it isn’t consistent and has no rhyme or reason for the long cycles. Ran multiple cycles and had normal cycles for the pump. Ran another cycle to put a lot of water in the line and didn’t see any indication of a blockage in the drain the discharge ties to. Ran both bathrooms above and had no water coming back down the vent. Pulled the pump and ensure the float is unobstructed and the grinder is clear. Replaced the section of 2 inch threading into the pump and redrilled a higher weep hole to ensure no airlock is occurring. Found the check valve was broken. Replace the check valve. Hooked the pump back up and it ran with no issue. Resealed the lid and informed customer if it happens again we will need to just replace the pump. Left quote to correct high pressure.

Customer wanted quotes for water heater replacement. Also tested pressure and found pressure to be high. Gave options for replacements. Customer will call back with decision.

Customer has credit of $35.00. No issues with the toilet. The home owner when ever they create urination, they sometimes miss and leaked down the toilet and has a little puddle of urine, from a plumbing standpoint I can’t not fix anything. The toilet isn’t leaking. Customer also had me take a look at faucet that was tight, however I wasn’t able to help much. At this time there are plumbing issues with the toilet. With that in mind I’d recommend getting the water heater replaced.

Call for toilet gurgling. Ms. Arline states that she heard gurgling from the toilet when the washing machine was draining. I tested all fixtures, ran multiple fixtures at once, and verified water was flowing by looking through the clean out. I believe there was likely a blockage at the the time (last week was when Ms. Arline noticed the issue). The blockage appears to have been resolved. I discussed our maintenance program, and the benefits of it. I also discussed potential options, including camera inspection, line replacements, etc. while testing I noticed the kitchen faucet is very old and gaskets are starting to degrade. I recommend replacing faucet.

Installing the pop-up assemblies, it came with a drain catcher thing that will save pills or diamond rings from going down in the drain once we remove those the drain started flowing normally customer didn’t want them in so we took them out and the drains are draining normal
