Common Questions
How does Gundlach's handle common Bakersfield plumbing issues like grease clogs and corroded copper pipes?
For Bakersfield homes, we understand that kitchen grease can solidify in pipes, and our hard water can accelerate copper pipe corrosion. Our technicians use professional-grade drain cleaning equipment to safely clear tough grease blockages. For corroded copper pipes, we offer expert repair or replacement, often recommending modern, corrosion-resistant materials like PEX for a longer-lasting solution, especially in our local water conditions.
My older Bakersfield home needs HVAC work. Can Gundlach's help with both restoration and new installations?
Absolutely. Specializing in the repair and restoration of older homes is a key part of our history. We can service and repair existing wall, floor, or package units common in vintage homes. If an older system is beyond repair or inefficient, we provide full HVAC installation or replacement with modern, energy-efficient systems designed to work effectively in our Bakersfield climate, all while respecting the character of your home.
Do you offer 24/7 emergency service for things like a burst pipe or broken AC?
Yes, we provide 24-hour emergency plumbing and HVAC services. Whether it's a burst water pipe in the middle of the night or an air conditioner failure during a Bakersfield heatwave, our team is on call to respond.
