Frequently Asked Questions
What's the most common plumbing issue you see in older Athens homes, and how do you fix it?
We frequently encounter issues with old galvanized pipes and corroded water heaters, which are common in many of Athens's established neighborhoods. For galvanized pipes, we assess the extent of corrosion and typically recommend and install a durable replacement, like PEX or copper, to restore water pressure and prevent future leaks. With corroded water heaters, we perform a thorough inspection and, if replacement is needed, we handle the full installation, ensuring proper sizing and venting for your home's needs.
My home needs both electrical updates and plumbing repairs. Can you handle both?
Absolutely. With nearly 30 years in the trade, owner Kenny Gatlin and our team are skilled in both major home systems. We can efficiently coordinate projects like installing a new electric panel or adding outlets while also repairing a leaky shower drain or installing a new faucet. This integrated approach saves you time and hassle, as you only need to call one trusted, local company to manage multiple aspects of your home restoration in Athens.
Do you install electric vehicle (EV) charging stations for residential homes?
Yes, we provide professional EV charging station installation for homeowners in Athens. This service starts with a thorough electrical inspection of your panel to ensure it can handle the new load safely. From there, we handle the wire installation, outlet setup (or hardwiring), and final connection, ensuring everything is up to current code. It's a practical upgrade we're helping more local residents with as EV ownership grows.
