Ahlstrom Plumbing | Reliable Plumber in Rochester, MN

Absolutely. Our comprehensive plumbing inspection includes checking for vulnerable pipes in unheated areas like basements, crawl spaces, and exterior walls—common trouble spots in our Minnesota climate. We identify insulation gaps and potential weak points before winter hits, allowing us to recommend preventive measures to help you avoid the costly damage and inconvenience of extreme frozen pipes.

First, always turn off the power at the circuit breaker. You can try using the provided Allen wrench to manually turn the disposal's blades from the bottom to dislodge the jam. If it doesn't free up easily, or if you hear a humming sound, stop. Forcing it can cause more damage. Call us at Ahlstrom Plumbing—our Rochester technicians can safely clear stubborn jams and inspect the unit to ensure it's running properly and prevent future issues.

A routine inspection from Ahlstrom Plumbing is a proactive investment in your home's health. Beyond checking for leaks and corrosion, we assess fixtures, water pressure, and drainage specific to our local water conditions. This helps catch small problems—like a slow-draining sink or a worn washer—before they escalate into major emergencies like burst pipes or severe clogs, saving you money and giving you peace of mind.
