What are the most common plumbing issues in Columbus homes?

We frequently see hot water tank corrosion, kitchen sink stoppages, and sewer backups. Given our local climate, we also handle many burst pipe and outdoor faucet repairs during the winter months.

Is it true you don't charge extra for emergency calls?

Yes! Whether it’s 2:00 PM on a Sunday or a holiday weekend, we do not charge extra for emergency services . We believe you shouldn't be penalized for a plumbing disaster.

What should I do to prepare for the plumber’s arrival?

To help us work as efficiently as possible, please clear the area around the plumbing fixture and ensure your pets are secured in a safe area of the home.

Can you handle specialized systems like well pumps or tankless heaters?

Absolutely. Unlike many general plumbers, we have technicians trained explicitly in tankless water heaters, well pumps, and well systems.

Do you have any tips to help prevent plumbing issues?

We sure do - here are a few common ones: Always turn off your outside hose bibs/spigots from the inside. Disconnect hoses from outside hose bibs/spigots for winter. Know where your whole-home water shut-off is. Keep faucets dripping in extremely cold temperatures in winter to prevent freezing. Only flush human waste and toilet paper. Use a strainer in your kitchen sink. Avoid pouring fat, oil, and grease down your drains. Have a yearly whole-home plumbing check-up, including a camera inspection of the sewer line, to proactively address existing issues before they become emergencies. We’re happy to share more during your service.
