plumbing

Sewer lines aren’t meant to handle everything you flushing down your drains. Be smart when it comes to flushing.

Plumbing terms are important to know

What is a Valve?
Valve is equipment designed to stop or regulate flow of any fluid (liquid, gas, condensate, stem, slurry etc.) in its path.

It’s important to have a valve on every fixture in your home in case of a leak. Leaks aren’t always the easiest and friendliest to repair. People think plumbing is straight forward and anyone can replace anything. What people don’t know is the damage plumbing can cause. Leave any professional work to the service men that train and are knowledgeable in their field of excellence. Look around your home at your sinks, toilets & tubs and make sure there’s a shut-off valve for each fixture. If not please call us today to help resolve your problems.

What faucet should i buy?

When purchasing a faucet remember that price isn’t always the top seller. A faucet that costs more doesn’t mean its gonna last longer or be more practical for your daily use. As a plumber we go in many homes and see many different types of useless faucets. I’ve asked many of my clients, why did you purchase that specific faucet? Every time they answer they say “because we liked what it looked like”.
