Frequently Asked Questions

My outdoor faucet is leaking after the winter thaw. Is this a common issue in Truckee, and can you fix it?

Absolutely. Outdoor irrigation and hose bib leaks are very common in Truckee due to our freeze-thaw cycles. A small leak can waste hundreds of gallons and lead to foundation or landscaping damage. We repair and replace outdoor faucets and irrigation lines, often installing frost-proof hose bibs to prevent future issues and conserve water—a priority in our mountain community.

How can I prepare my home's plumbing for potential earthquake activity in the Tahoe region?

Proactive measures are key. We recommend a professional inspection of your gas and water lines, especially where they connect to appliances and the main supply. We can install flexible connectors for your water heater and gas appliances, which are designed to withstand movement. Securing exposed pipes and knowing how to shut off your main water and gas valves are also crucial steps we can help you with.

My water pressure has dropped suddenly. Could this be related to old pipes or local seismic activity?

It's possible. In older Truckee homes, sudden pressure loss can indicate a leak in the water line, which could be exacerbated by ground shifting. For newer homes, it might point to a failing pressure regulator or a clogged pipe. We'll perform a thorough inspection, checking for leaks both inside and out, and assess if there's any damage to the main water pipe entering your home, a common repair we handle for local residents.
