Plumbing Contractor Independence MO | Call Rice Plumbing Sewer & Drain

For common drain buildup in older homes, we start with a thorough inspection to identify the cause, often mineral deposits or accumulated soap scum. We frequently use hydro-jetting, a high-pressure water cleaning method, to clear the line completely without damaging your pipes. This is a highly effective, long-lasting solution for local hard water issues, and we provide a free estimate before any work begins.

Most jams can be safely repaired. We'll first safely assess the unit, clear the obstruction, and check the blades and motor. Our repair service often resolves the issue quickly and cost-effectively. However, if the unit is very old or the motor is damaged, we'll provide a transparent recommendation for a new installation, explaining all options and costs upfront so you can make an informed decision.

Absolutely. Our long-term experience with all types of plumbing systems gives us a deep understanding of home water infrastructure, which is crucial for a proper tankless installation. We expertly handle the specific gas line and venting requirements for these efficient units. This foundational knowledge, combined with training on the latest models, ensures your new water heater is installed correctly for optimal performance and safety, backed by our guarantee.
