Our services in South Waterfront
Common plumbing problems we fix in South Waterfront
Water heater not strapped
Oregon requires seismic straps on water heaters. Many older installs were never strapped or use straps that no longer hold.
Roots in the side sewer
Mature trees find every joint in an old lateral. Jetting clears them for a while; lining or replacing the section keeps them out.
Pipes that froze in a cold snap
Lines in crawl spaces and exterior walls are exposed when temperatures drop below freezing for a few nights. They often split on the thaw rather than the freeze.
Well pump cycling on and off
Rapid cycling usually points to a waterlogged pressure tank or a failing pressure switch rather than the pump itself.
Rusty or low-pressure water
Galvanized supply pipe corrodes from the inside, narrowing the line and staining the water. Repiping is usually the lasting fix.

Do you work on private wells as well as city water?
