The Most Common Plumbing Calls in Gibson Springs
Water heaters lead the list. Hard water leaves a layer of scale across the bottom of a tank and on the element, so the heater works harder every year until it either stops making hot water or starts leaking at the base. A tank that is weeping at the bottom is not a repair, it is a replacement, and catching it a week earlier is the difference between swapping a heater and drying out a closet. If yours is making a popping or rumbling noise, that is scale, and it is worth a call.
Second is drains, especially in the kitchens of shared-wall homes. Where units share a stack, one blockage can show up as a backup in somebody else's sink, which makes it easy to misdiagnose as your problem alone. We camera the line so you can see what is actually in there before anyone starts paying for guesses, and we hydro-jet when a cable alone will not clear it.
Third is the slow, boring leak. Pinhole leaks and running toilets do not flood anything, they just quietly raise the water bill until someone notices. Our electronic leak detection finds the source without opening up half the house, and on a slab we locate first and cut once. If your bill has climbed and nothing looks wrong, that is usually the reason.
