About Valentine Plumbing & Heating in Alamosa, CO

Our detailed plumbing inspections use specialized camera equipment to visually inspect your sewer lines. This allows us to spot early signs of root infiltration, which is very common with Alamosa's tree roots seeking moisture. Catching this early means we can often clear the roots and recommend preventive measures before they cause a complete and messy sewer line backup in your home.

First, always turn off the power to the disposal at the circuit breaker. Never put your hand down the drain. For a simple jam, you can often use the provided hex key (or an Allen wrench) to manually turn the motor from the bottom of the unit to free it. If that doesn't work, or if the disposal is leaking, it's best to call us. We can safely clear the jam, check for damage from common Alamosa food waste, and get your kitchen back in order.

Older homes in Alamosa often have aging sewer lines and plumbing that are more susceptible to the local issue of root intrusion and wear. A professional inspection gives you a clear picture of your system's health. We can identify potential weak points, minor leaks, or slow drains caused by roots before they lead to major property damage, saving you significant money and hassle with proactive repairs.
