  • A shut-off valve is a mechanical device that allows you to stop the flow of water through a pipe. You'll typically find them in key locations like under sinks, behind toilets, near water heaters, or where the main water line enters your home. These valves make it possible to isolate a specific fixture—or your entire plumbing system—without disrupting water service to the rest of the house.

    There are several types of shut-off valves commonly used in residential plumbing systems, including:

    1. Ball valves – Durable and reliable, these use a rotating ball with a hole to control flow.
    2. Gate valves – Often found on main water lines; they raise and lower a gate inside the valve body.
    3. Globe valves – Ideal for controlling flow rate, often used for outdoor faucets or hose bibs.
    4. Compression valves – Compact and common under sinks or toilets.

    Over time, even the most reliable valve can corrode, seize up, or develop leaks. That’s why regular inspection and timely maintenance are so important.

  • If your shut-off valve is difficult to turn, leaking, or no longer fully stops water flow, it's time for professional attention. Our expert plumbers will assess the condition of your valve and recommend the most cost-effective solution—whether that’s a simple repair or a full replacement.

    Common issues we address include:

    • Valve corrosion or rust
    • Worn-out washers or seals
    • Broken handles or stripped threads
    • Leaking at the valve connection

    In many cases, we can replace an outdated or failing valve with a modern, more efficient option like a quarter-turn ball valve for easier operation and longer life.

  • Every home should have a functioning main shut-off valve that is easy to access and operate. If your home’s main shut-off valve is old, hard to reach, or missing entirely, our team can install a new one that meets local code and ensures you’re prepared for any emergency.

    Our main shut-off valve services include:

    • Upgrading outdated gate valves to more efficient ball valves
    • Installing additional shut-off points for better control
    • Ensuring proper labeling and accessibility
    • Testing valve performance after installation

    Having a reliable main shut-off valve can make all the difference in an emergency, giving you a fast way to stop flooding before it spreads.

Planning a Renovation or Appliance Upgrade?

Whether you're remodeling your kitchen, replacing a water heater, or adding a new appliance, it's the perfect time to evaluate your shut-off valves. In fact, many building codes require shut-off valves at each fixture, making them not just a convenience—but a necessity.

We’ll help you:

  • Ensure every sink, toilet, and appliance has a functioning shut-off valve
  • Install new valves that meet code and design requirements
  • Verify proper operation before project completion

It’s a smart, forward-thinking step in any home improvement plan.
