Buerkle Plumbing Co | Plumbing Services in Pittsburgh, PA 15237

A professional plumbing inspection from Buerkle Plumbing allows us to proactively check your pipes for early signs of corrosion, a common issue in our area. We assess water pressure, look for mineral buildup, and identify weak spots before they lead to leaks or bursts. Catching corrosion early can save you from extensive water damage and much more expensive repairs down the line.

First, always turn off the power to the disposal. You can try using an Allen wrench in the hex socket at the bottom of the unit to manually turn the blades and dislodge the obstruction. If that doesn't work, or if you hear unusual noises, it's time to call Buerkle Plumbing. Forcing it can damage the motor or blades. We'll safely clear the jam and inspect the unit to ensure it's functioning properly.

Absolutely. During our inspection, we don't just look at the disposal itself. We check the sink's drain lines, seals, and connections for proper alignment and potential clogs that can strain the disposal. We also assess your overall kitchen plumbing to ensure adequate water flow and proper installation, which helps prevent the jams and slow drains that Pittsburgh homeowners often experience.
