Plumbing — Maintenance & Repair

Leaks, clogs, low pressure, or no hot water? We send a licensed plumber for a focused on-site diagnostic and same-visit repair whenever parts are on the truck. If a specialty part is needed, we order from vetted suppliers and return promptly. Work carries a 6-month warranty; extended coverage for VoltyxCare+ members.

Common problems we fix

• Leaks: supply lines, shutoff valves, angle stops, faucets, tub/shower, toilets, hose bibs
• Clogs & slow drains: sinks, tubs, showers, main line backups (augering or hydro-jet as needed)
• Water heaters: no hot water, pilot/igniter issues, anode/element/thermostat, expansion tank
• Low pressure/flow: failed PRV, clogged aerators/cartridges, undersized or corroded piping
• Toilets: running, weak flush, fill/flush valve replacement, wax ring leaks
• Garbage disposals & dishwashers: jams, leaks, improper drains/air gaps
• Gas lines (where permitted): leak detection, shutoff valves, appliance connections

Our on-site diagnostic

• Safety & shutoffs — verify main water/gas shutoffs and pressure (PRV test)
• Source tracing — moisture/thermal checks, dye tests for toilets, pan/drip checks under fixtures
• Drain assessment — test traps/vents, snake if needed; recommend camera inspection for repeat clogs
• Water heater check — age/condition, venting, combustion or element/thermostat tests, T&P valve
• Code & condition — expansion tank, seismic strapping, proper traps/air gaps, vacuum breakers
• Clear options — repair vs. replace, parts list, timeline

Maintenance services

• Whole-home health check: inspect exposed piping, valves, and fixtures; test PRV/pressure; look for active and hidden leaks
• Drain care: auger or hydro-jet problematic lines; enzyme recommendations where helpful
• Water heater tune-up: flush sediment (tank), check anode, clean burner/ports or elements, verify T&P and expansion tank
• Fixture service: cartridge/aerator cleaning, minor rebuilds to restore flow and stop drips
• Sump/ejector pumps: test operation, check check-valves and alarms
• Water quality: basic hardness/iron/chlorine test; recommendations for filters/softeners if needed

What to expect

• Findings explained in plain English
• Upfront repair options and pricing after the visit
• Same-day repair when possible; otherwise fast parts procurement and return install
• Clean work area, tested operation, and written warranty

Recurring clogs, slab leaks, or orange/brittle piping (e.g., old galvanized/polybutylene) may indicate a larger fix. We’ll outline a scoped replacement plan with permits if appropriate.
