Check out our comprehensive list of services below. We also offer custom tankless water heater installation.
Is there a hidden leak? Check your water meter
A leak inside a wall or under a slab can run for a long time before you see a stain. The EPA's WaterSense program gives two simple checks:
- The water meter: check your water meter before and after a two-hour period when no water is being used. If the meter changes at all, you probably have a leak.
- The toilets: put a few drops of food coloring in the toilet tank. If any color shows up in the bowl after 10 minutes, the toilet is leaking. Flush right after the test so the tank does not stain.
Other signs worth a call: a warm spot on the floor, the sound of running water when nothing is on, a water bill that jumps, low pressure in one part of the house, or a musty smell behind a cabinet.
Repair, reline or repipe?
A single leak can be a spot repair. When the same pipes keep failing, it is time to compare repairing them one at a time with replacing the run. These are the options we lay out after the inspection:
Spot repair
For a single leak, a bad valve or a damaged section. Video leak detection helps find the spot.
Pipe relining or pipe bursting
A new pipe is formed inside the old one, or pulled through it, so the line is renewed without digging up the whole yard or taking down the whole wall.
Repiping
For rusty water, repeated pinhole leaks or low pressure through the house: pipe relining, copper and repiping of the supply lines.
Drains, sewer lines and water heaters
Slow or backed-up drains
One slow sink can be a local clog. Several drains backing up at once, or gurgling toilets, point to the main sewer line, which is a job for drain cleaning, sewer maintenance or a sewer repair.
Rooter service or hydro jetting
A rooter cuts through a blockage. Hydro jetting scours the whole inside of the pipe with high-pressure water, which suits grease and buildup that keeps coming back.
Sewer repair and replacement
A cracked or collapsed section is repaired or the line is replaced, by trench or through the old pipe where the ground allows it.
Tank or tankless water heater
A tankless heater saves space and heats on demand; a tank stores hot water ready to use. In earthquake country a water heater should be strapped to the wall; for the houses it funds, California's Earthquake Brace + Bolt retrofit program requires that the water heater be properly strapped and braced.
After the leak: water damage and mold
Fixing the pipe is half the job when water has already soaked a cabinet, a subfloor or the bottom of a wall. The EPA advises drying water-damaged areas and items within 24 to 48 hours to prevent mold growth. Wet drywall and insulation that cannot dry in time may have to be removed and replaced.
Because Maingreen is a general contractor, the same job can include the drying, the mold remediation if mold has started, and the rebuild of the bathroom, kitchen or floor afterwards. A leak that came from the roof is a roof repair, which we also do.
What sets the price of plumbing work
- Access: a pipe behind an open cabinet is quicker than one in a slab or behind tile.
- Repair or replace: a spot repair, relining and a full repipe are very different jobs.
- Finding it: video leak detection narrows down where to open.
- What comes after: drywall, tile, flooring or cabinets that need to be repaired once the pipe is fixed.
