Frequently Asked Questions
What is the most common plumbing issue you see in Bellwood homes, and how do you fix it?
In Bellwood, we frequently address toilet seal leaks and laundry hose bursts. These issues often stem from worn wax rings or aging, high-pressure supply hoses. For a toilet leak, we'll carefully remove the toilet, clean the flange, and install a new, heavy-duty wax or rubber seal to ensure a watertight connection. For a burst laundry hose, we replace it with a reinforced, braided stainless steel hose, which is far more durable against pressure fluctuations. Addressing these promptly prevents water damage to floors and subfloors, which is crucial for protecting your home.
Do you offer maintenance plans for HVAC systems, and what do they include?
Yes, we offer HVAC system maintenance to help Bellwood residents extend the life of their equipment and maintain efficiency. Our maintenance service includes a comprehensive check of your heating and cooling systems: cleaning coils, checking refrigerant levels, inspecting electrical connections, testing safety controls, and lubricating moving parts. For boilers, this also involves checking pressure and inspecting the heat exchanger. Regular maintenance helps catch small issues before they become major repairs, improves air quality, and can lower your energy bills throughout the year.
I have an old home and am worried about my pipes. What does a repiping project involve?
Repiping is a significant but often necessary project for older homes with galvanized or polybutylene pipes, which are prone to corrosion and leaks. Our process begins with a thorough inspection to map your home's plumbing system. We then replace the old supply lines with new, durable materials like copper or PEX, which are resistant to corrosion and can handle our local water conditions. We work to minimize disruption by accessing pipes through strategic points and carefully patching walls afterward. Completing a repiping project provides peace of mind with a reliable water supply and often improves water pressure and quality.
