FAQs
What types of complex plumbing repairs do you handle in Washburn?
Our licensed plumbers tackle a full range of intricate jobs, including full or partial pipe replacements, slab-leak detection and repair, sewer line diagnostics and relining, water-heater rebuilds or replacements, commercial backflow device repairs, and advanced leak-trace services for hidden or hard-to-reach piping.
How do you determine whether a damaged pipe needs repair or complete replacement?
We begin with a camera inspection and pressure testing to locate the exact failure point and gauge overall pipe condition. If damage is isolated, we’ll recommend a sectional repair to save time and money. Widespread corrosion, root intrusion, or multiple leaks usually call for full replacement to ensure long-term reliability and compliance with current plumbing codes.
Can you repair sewer lines in Washburn without digging up my yard?
Yes. Whenever possible we use trenchless methods such as pipe bursting and cured-in-place pipe (CIPP) lining. These techniques require only small access holes, preserve landscaping, and restore structural integrity with minimal disruption. After a thorough camera inspection, we’ll advise whether a trenchless approach is appropriate for your property.
What should I do if I suspect a slab leak?
Turn off your home’s main water valve and call us immediately. Common signs include unexplained water bills, warm spots on concrete floors, and the sound of running water when all fixtures are off. We use electronic leak detection and infrared imaging to pinpoint the leak without excessive demolition, then either reroute the line or perform in-place epoxy sealing, depending on severity.
How quickly can you respond to an emergency complex repair in Washburn?
We offer 24/7 emergency service and typically arrive anywhere in Washburn within 60–90 minutes. Our vans are stocked with high-pressure jetting equipment, pipe cutters, copper and PEX fittings, and electronic locating tools so we can diagnose and often start repairs on the first visit.
Do complex plumbing repairs come with any warranty?
Absolutely. All labor for complex repairs carries a minimum one-year workmanship warranty, and many products—such as trenchless liner materials or water heaters—include manufacturer warranties of 5 to 25 years. We provide written documentation outlining coverage and will handle any warranty service at no extra charge during the covered period.
