Our services in St. Johns
Common plumbing problems we fix in St. Johns
Sump pump running constantly
Saturated winter soil keeps crawl-space pumps busy. A pump that never stops, or never starts, needs checking before the next storm.
Backflow assembly due for testing
Testable backflow assemblies on irrigation and commercial lines need an annual test by a certified tester.
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.
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.
Water heater not strapped
Oregon requires seismic straps on water heaters. Many older installs were never strapped or use straps that no longer hold.
What affects the cost of plumbing work in St. Johns
Before you call
Can you handle commercial jobs?
Yes. We cover both residential and commercial Plumbing in St. Johns.
How fast can you start?
In most of St. Johns, we can schedule Plumbing within a day or two of your call.
What areas do you cover?
We serve St. Johns and the surrounding Portland communities.
Do you work on private wells as well as city water?
Yes. We repair and replace well pumps, pressure tanks and switches, and install filtration for wells with iron, manganese or hardness.
Why do pipes freeze here when winters are mild?
Most homes have supply lines in vented crawl spaces. When a cold snap brings several nights below freezing, exposed lines can freeze and split, usually showing up when they thaw.
Do I need a water softener?
Usually not on city water - Salem and Portland water is soft. Softeners and filters are mainly for private wells with hard water or iron.
