FAQs
How often should I schedule routine plumbing maintenance for my Blaine home?
For most residential properties in Blaine, we recommend a comprehensive plumbing maintenance visit once a year. This annual check-up allows us to inspect supply lines, drains, water heaters, and fixtures before small issues become costly repairs. Homes with older piping, large families, or hard-water conditions may benefit from semi-annual visits. We can tailor a schedule based on your home’s age, plumbing materials, and usage patterns.
What does your routine maintenance service include?
Our standard maintenance visit covers a full system inspection—checking visible pipes for leaks or corrosion, testing water pressure, flushing sediment from water heaters, cleaning faucet aerators and showerheads, inspecting toilets for silent leaks, evaluating sump pumps, and clearing slow drains with safe, non-corrosive methods. We also provide a written report with any findings, recommendations, and tips for day-to-day care.
Why is preventive maintenance important if I don’t have any plumbing problems right now?
Much of your plumbing system is hidden behind walls and under floors, so early warning signs often go unnoticed. Preventive maintenance catches small leaks, deteriorating seals, and mineral buildup before they escalate into burst pipes, water damage, or high utility bills. Routine service also keeps fixtures operating efficiently, extends equipment life, and helps you budget for future upgrades rather than paying for emergency repairs.
Can routine maintenance reduce my water and energy bills?
Yes. During maintenance we test water pressure, adjust it if needed, repair dripping faucets, and ensure toilets aren’t running. We also flush water heaters to remove sediment, which improves heating efficiency. These steps can lower both water and energy consumption, saving most Blaine homeowners 5–10 % on utility costs each year.
How long does a typical maintenance appointment take and do I need to be home?
A standard whole-house plumbing check usually takes 60–90 minutes, depending on the size and complexity of your system. We prefer that someone be home so we can access all fixtures and review our findings with you. If that’s not possible, we can arrange keyless entry or a lockbox and email the full report afterward.
Is your maintenance service backed by any guarantees?
Absolutely. All inspection findings and minor adjustments we perform during the visit are guaranteed for 90 days. If a leak or issue we serviced reoccurs within that period, we’ll return at no charge. Additionally, clients who stay on our annual maintenance plan receive priority scheduling and a 10 % discount on any future repair work.
