About Plummers Plumbing in Reno, NV

Reno's hard water leaves mineral deposits inside pipes, which trap hair, grease, and other debris, leading to frequent clogs. Our professional drain cleaning services don't just clear the immediate blockage; we can also inspect your pipes for scale buildup and recommend solutions like water softeners or specialized cleaning to help prevent future issues.

It depends on the cause. In our Reno climate, temperature swings can cause pipes to expand and contract, loosening joints over time. Often, our technicians can repair the joint by resealing or tightening it. However, if the fitting is corroded or the pipe itself is damaged, a targeted section replacement may be the more reliable, long-term fix. We'll provide a clear assessment and recommendation.

Absolutely. An outdated water heater can contribute to sediment buildup that affects your entire system. A modern, efficient model provides consistent performance. For issues like slow hot water, a recirculation pump installation delivers hot water on demand, reducing the strain on your pipes from running water and can help minimize the temperature-related stress that leads to joint leaks.
