Water TestFREE

Is your tap water really safe?

From a Leak on Your Kitchen Sink or a Furnace That Won’t Turn On, We Have You Covered with Our 24/7 Services.

Hydro Jetting and Main Sewer Clearing

When every drain in the house is slow or the floor drain backs up, the clog is usually in the main sewer line. We clear it with a cable first, then Hydro Jetting when grease or tree roots will not let go. If the line keeps coming back, we run a camera and show you the footage before we recommend anything else.

For old cast iron lines we also offer Picote Pipe Descaling, which cleans the pipe from the inside without digging. Available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.

Water Heater Flush and No Hot Water Repair

No Hot Water on a cold morning is one of our most common winter calls. We find out whether it is the pilot, the gas valve, an element, or a tank that has reached the end, and we tell you the price before we start. If the tank is leaking, shut off the water to the heater and call.

A yearly flush clears the sediment that makes a tank noisy, slow to recover and short lived. Every Water Heater we install comes with Install Care, a free yearly flush and leak check for the life of the unit.

Home Protection Plan
