FAQs
What plumbing maintenance services do you offer in Petros?
Our Petros team provides a full spectrum of preventative services, including whole-house leak inspections, water heater flushing and tune-ups, drain and sewer line camera inspections, fixture re-sealing, water-pressure testing, sump pump checks, and valve lubrication or replacement. We also offer seasonal tasks such as winterization and outdoor hose-bib servicing to protect your pipes from freezing temperatures.
How often should I schedule routine plumbing maintenance for my home?
For most single-family homes, we recommend a comprehensive plumbing check-up once a year. High-use or older homes—especially those with galvanized or polybutylene piping—may benefit from semiannual visits. Water heaters should be flushed annually, and sewer line camera inspections every 2–3 years, unless you have large trees or recurring root issues, in which case a yearly check is best.
What are the main benefits of routine plumbing maintenance?
Regular maintenance prevents small issues from escalating into costly repairs, extends the life of fixtures and appliances, improves water efficiency (lowering utility bills), preserves manufacturer warranties that require documented servicing, and safeguards your home from water damage and mold growth. Catching leaks early can save thousands of dollars in structural repairs and insurance deductibles.
Can regular maintenance really help me avoid emergency plumbing issues?
Yes. Most plumbing emergencies—burst pipes, flooded basements, failed water heaters—show minor warning signs long before disaster strikes. During a maintenance visit, we use pressure gauges, moisture meters, and inspection cameras to detect these red flags. Addressing them proactively reduces the likelihood of night-time or holiday plumbing emergencies by up to 80%, according to industry studies.
Do you offer maintenance plans for businesses in Petros?
Absolutely. We design customizable service agreements for restaurants, apartments, medical offices, and manufacturing facilities. Plans can include quarterly grease-trap cleaning, backflow device testing, commercial water heater descaling, and 24/7 priority response. Bundling services under a plan locks in discounted labor rates and predictable budgeting for business owners.
