Plumbing can seem a little bit like magic: it’s largely invisible (behind walls or beneath your foundation), and if you’re not an extremely skilled practitioner, meddling with it can cause big problems! We’re going to make it a little less mysterious for you while we discuss slab leaks. You won’t become a qualified magician (or plumber) by reading this, but you’ll come to understand the special skills and tools that help the plumber do their job, and you’ll have a better idea of when to call a plumber.
Slab leaks are an especially mysterious aspect of plumbing because they don’t even occur inside your house. A slab leak is caused by damage or degradation to the pipes that run beneath your foundation. Most of the time that slab leaks occur, it’s from the pipes that carry hot water, but leaks in cold water pipes are also possible. There are a few clues that can help you to discover such a leak and some specialized approaches that allow a plumber to fix it.
It’s best to avoid major problems with your air conditioner by scheduling regular maintenance. That way, minor issues can be cleared up before they cause your AC unit to stop working. 
Although the vast majority of American households have air conditioning, not everyone is confident in or knowledgeable about basic maintenance. If you’re not sure what to do to keep your air conditioner running at its best, that’s okay! You’re in good company. Many people could use a little help to get started. 
Drains are sensitive parts of our plumbing systems, but they’re also the parts that we have the most contact with. Think about it: every time you cook dinner, wash your hair, or even do the dishes, you’re using your drains to ensure that the dirty water ends up far and away from your home to be cleaned up. So, you’re probably looking for a few ways to mitigate drain problems and improve the quality of your drains, right?
Everyone has different exposure to professional electricians. Some people need to rely on a contractor for a lot of home work, because there are just a lot of high-tech systems and specialized technology required in homes these days. Other people are pretty handy, and they’ve either got licensed family members or people they know who can work on this kind of stuff. No matter where you fall on the spectrum, we want to be the team that can provide electrical services reliably for people who need them.
Happy fourth! At the time of writing this blog post, we’re expecting sunshine and high temperatures on Independence Day, but that can absolutely change. As you all probably know, the weather is not 100% predictable!
Ice in your freezer is usually a good sign, especially if you’ve got an ice maker or a few sets of ice cube trays. They’re perfect for those summer drinks that keep you cool and comfortable. However, ice in other areas of your home is usually a bad sign, particularly when it comes to your air conditioner. Your AC isn’t a freezer, and it’s not supposed to cool things down to 32°F or below. If it does, then you’ll start to notice some pretty severe problems that we’ll get to down below.
Have you ever been frustrated with a shower drain that’s starting to get clogged, but you just paid for a drain cleaning only a year ago? It can sometimes feel like there’s just nothing that can be done about clogging materials. Well, there is something that can be done about the materials clogging your shower and your kitchen sink, and we’re here to talk about it!
This is a good question, and we understand why homeowners would ask it. Wouldn’t it be easy if we just gave you our proven inspection list and all the tips required for performing AC maintenance on your own, and you just did it yourself? It sounds like that would be more convenient, but the truth is that this would probably lead to more problems. One of our values as a company is being responsible to our customers and our community. We’re a family-owned, third-generation business, which means that many of our customers are close friends and neighbors.
