OUR PARTNERS


















What materials or tools should I avoid using to temporarily fix a burst pipe before your team arrives for repair?
Avoid using duct tape, electrical tape, or any type of adhesive tape to temporarily fix a burst pipe. These materials are not suitable for repairing plumbing leaks and may not hold up under pressure. Instead, use a pipe repair clamp, pipe repair tape, or a rubber patch specifically designed for temporary pipe repairs.
What are the common causes of leaks in plumbing systems that may require repair?
Common causes of leaks in plumbing systems that may require repair include deteriorated pipes, loose fittings, high water pressure, corrosion, and faulty seals.
How do you determine the cost estimate for plumbing repairs before starting the work?
As a licensed plumber, I determine the cost estimate for plumbing repairs by assessing the scope of work, materials needed, labor involved, and any potential complications. I also take into account the time required to complete the job and any additional expenses such as permits or specialized equipment.
Can you provide an estimate for repairing my water heater?
I would need more information about the issue with your water heater in order to provide an accurate estimate for the repair.
