Question Answers
As a Hawthorne homeowner, my toilet is constantly running or leaking at the base. What's the most common cause and how do you fix it?
In Hawthorne's older homes, a running toilet or a leak at the base is often due to a worn-out flapper valve or a broken wax seal. The flapper controls water flow from the tank to the bowl, and a worn one wastes water. A failed wax seal under the toilet allows water to seep onto the floor, potentially damaging subfloors. Our repair process involves diagnosing the exact cause, replacing the faulty components with durable parts, and ensuring a proper, watertight seal to prevent future leaks and water damage.
What does a sewer video inspection involve, and when would I need one for my home?
A sewer video inspection involves sending a small, waterproof camera through your sewer line to provide a real-time view of its interior condition. For Hawthorne residents, this service is particularly valuable if you're experiencing frequent drain clogs, slow drainage throughout the house, or if you're purchasing an older home. The inspection can identify problems like tree root intrusion, cracks, bellied pipes, or blockages deep within the line. It allows us to pinpoint the issue without unnecessary digging, providing a clear diagnosis and the most efficient repair plan.
My water heater is old and inefficient. What should I consider for a replacement installation?
When replacing a water heater, we help Hawthorne homeowners consider several key factors. First is the fuel type (gas or electric) and ensuring the new unit is compatible with your home's setup. We assess the appropriate size (in gallons) based on your household's hot water demand. We also discuss options like energy-efficient models, which can lower utility bills, and the benefits of installing a hot water recirculation pump for instant hot water at distant faucets. Our licensed team handles the entire process, from safe removal of the old unit to proper installation, code-compliant venting, and testing.
