Twice cleaned the same drain? The blockage is not the area that you’ve been treating. We video taped the line first, before we quoted anything. The footage will show what is actually occurring down there – whether it’s grease that has been welded to the pipe wall, roots that have penetrated a joint, a section of the pipe that has been bulging out and is holding water, or a cracked lateral. We also mark what location and depth it is at, and if it needs to be dug, we open up a few feet of yard, but don’t trench the entire run. We then clear the main, repair/replace the failed segment and backups up to clean up. Laterals are the property of the homeowners and the decision of who is at fault (homeowner or public system) is made by a licensed plumber.

Water Heater Repair Before You Pay for a Replacement

There are many water heaters that are replaced when a $40 part could have been the solution. Thermostats, heating elements, thermocouples, gas control valves, relief valves, anode rods  all can be replaced, all are much less expensive than a new unit and install. Please contact us if your hot water heater is experiencing any of the following problems: no hot water, hot water runs out early, popping or rumbling sounds, rusty hot water, or a pilot light that will not stay lit. Gas or electric, tank or tankless. When the tank itself has gone, we say it plainly  water pooling at the base is not a repairable fitting  and quote the replacement without theatrics. A sediment flush is performed with each service call – this is the one thing that actually extends the tank life here.

Quick and Easy Fixture, Faucet and Toilet Repairs.

Running toilet. Dripping faucet. Avoid pressurised shower. Humming and doing nothing disposal. Frozen shutoff valve. These are the repairs people are postponing for a year and a toilet that’s constantly running will eventually cost you more than it will the repair. Cartridges, flappers, fill valves, wax rings, supply lines, P-traps, disposals  all riding in the truck. That is how these conclude instead of the diagnosis on one day and the trip for parts on Thursday. When it’s too far gone to be worth fixing, you receive both repair and replacement and you choose. Landlords, property managers: schedule a group of units and we will work through them sequentially.

Licensed Gas Line Repair for Homes and Commercial Kitchens

Smell gas? Have everyone leave and contact your utility company before contacting us. After we clear the area, we’re on to the next thing. This is bonded, licensed, permitted work and there isn’t a quick and dirty version of it that will allow a shortcut or an unlicensed helper. Every job requires pressure testing and inspection sign-off when required by the city, and we find and fix leaks, replace worn runs, and hook up appliances  ranges, dryers, water heaters and outdoor grills. Restaurants and commercial kitchens: when possible, gas repairs are scheduled around your operating hours, closing your gas during dinner is a second problem.

Where We Handle Plumbing Repairs Around Springfield

The majority of the repair calls we receive are from within the city limits of Springfield, where we can come to help you with your needs on the same day. Outside of the city, we will only travel roughly 30 miles out to include Greene, Christian and Webster counties. Battlefield and Brookline are the nearest locations and are typically the first to get a response. Nixa, Ozark, Republic, Willard, Strafford, and Rogersville are within same or next day driving distance. Fair Grove, Clever, Marshfield and Bois D’Arc are closer to the outer edge, and if non-emergency work is going to be done there, it will likely be done the next day. Often, rural addresses = wells and septic, rather than city service. We also have parts for pressure tanks, well pumps and septic lines on our trucks.
