About Rhiner Steve Plumbing in West Des Moines, IA

Our inspections specifically check for sediment buildup in your water heater, a common issue due to our local water hardness. We'll flush the tank to remove sediment, which improves efficiency, extends the unit's life, and prevents premature failure and unexpected cold showers.

Absolutely. During an inspection, we assess the condition and flow of your main sewer line using camera technology. We look for early signs of blockages, cracks, or intrusive tree roots—common culprits for backups in our area—allowing us to recommend cleaning or repair before a full backup occurs.

Watch for warning signs like rumbling noises from your water heater, discolored hot water, or slower drainage in multiple fixtures. For sewer concerns, gurgling drains, foul odors, or water backing up in a basement floor drain are key indicators. If you notice these, it's time to call us for a proactive inspection.
