Water Heater

Essential for providing hot water throughout your home, water heaters require professional installation and regular maintenance.

How It Works:

Water heaters store and heat water using either gas or electric heating elements. Cold water enters the tank, is heated to the set temperature, and hot water is delivered to fixtures throughout your home. Modern units feature energy-efficient designs and safety controls.

Common Problems

  • No hot water or insufficient hot water
  • Water heater leaks from tank or connections
  • Pilot light issues in gas units
  • Sediment buildup reducing efficiency
  • Thermostat malfunctions
  • Pressure relief valve problems

Pump Systems

Pump systems are crucial for maintaining proper water pressure and drainage in homes with specific plumbing requirements.

How It Works:

Pump systems use mechanical force to move water through your plumbing system. Sump pumps remove excess water from basements, while booster pumps increase water pressure. Well pumps draw water from underground sources.

Common Problems

  • Pump motor failure or burnout
  • Clogged pump intakes or outlets
  • Electrical connection issues
  • Float switch malfunctions
  • Insufficient water pressure
  • Excessive noise during operation

Backflow Prevention

Critical safety systems that prevent contaminated water from flowing back into your clean water supply.

How It Works:

Backflow prevention devices use mechanical valves to ensure water flows in only one direction. They prevent contaminated water from entering your clean water supply during pressure changes or system failures.

Common Problems

  • Backflow device failure or malfunction
  • Annual testing and certification issues
  • Leaking from device connections
  • Reduced water pressure
  • Device corrosion and deterioration
  • Improper installation or sizing

Sump Pump

Essential for preventing basement flooding by removing excess water from sump basins.

How It Works:

Sump pumps are installed in sump basins to automatically remove excess water that collects around your foundation. They activate when water levels rise and pump water away from your home to prevent flooding.

Common Problems

  • Pump motor failure
  • Float switch malfunctions
  • Clogged discharge lines
  • Electrical connection issues
  • Insufficient pumping capacity
  • Backup battery failure

Our Solutions

  • Professional sump pump installation

Sewage Pump

Specialized pumps that move wastewater from lower levels to the main sewer line.

How It Works:

Sewage pumps are designed to handle solid waste and move it from basement bathrooms or laundry rooms to the main sewer line. They feature larger motors and specialized impellers for handling waste materials.

Common Problems

  • Pump clogs from solid waste
  • Motor burnout from overloading
  • Float switch malfunctions
  • Discharge line blockages
  • Electrical connection issues
  • Insufficient pumping capacity

Our Solutions

  • Professional sewage pump installation
  • Pump unclogging and repair
  • Motor replacement and repair

  • Capacity assessment and upgrades

Why Choose Us:

We handle all types of sewage pumps and ensure proper sizing for your specific needs. Our expertise prevents costly backups and system failures.

Booster Pump

Pumps that increase water pressure in homes with low water pressure issues.

How It Works:

Booster pumps increase water pressure by adding mechanical force to your water supply. They are installed in-line with your main water supply and automatically activate when pressure drops below set levels.

Common Problems

  • Insufficient pressure increase
  • Pump cycling issues
  • Electrical connection problems
  • Pressure switch malfunctions
  • Excessive noise during operation
  • Energy consumption issues

Our Solutions

  • Professional booster pump installation
  • Pressure optimization and adjustment

We properly size and install booster pumps to provide optimal water pressure without wasting energy. Our installations ensure consistent pressure throughout your home.

Mop Sink

Specialized commercial sinks designed for cleaning equipment and maintenance tasks.

How It Works:

Mop sinks are deep, commercial-grade sinks designed for cleaning mops, buckets, and other equipment. They feature heavy-duty construction and specialized drainage systems for commercial use.

Common Problems
