About Apollo Plumbing in Elk River, MN

Our Elk River-specific inspections focus on identifying pipes in unheated spaces like crawl spaces, garages, and exterior walls that are most vulnerable to our extreme cold. We check insulation levels and can recommend solutions like pipe heating cables or additional insulation to prevent freezing and the costly water damage that follows a burst pipe.

Minnesota's climate and mineral content in water can accelerate corrosion and wear on shutoff valves over time. During our inspection, we test every main and fixture shutoff valve in your home to ensure they operate smoothly. If we find a valve that's seized, leaking, or corroded, we can replace it before it fails in an emergency, ensuring you can always quickly stop the water flow.

First, locate your main water shutoff valve (usually in the basement or near the water meter) and turn it off to stop all water flow into the house. Then, call Apollo Plumbing immediately. We offer emergency services for Elk River residents and can quickly replace the faulty valve, even in cold weather, to restore your control and prevent further damage.
