When You Want A Repair Done Right The First Time

If you’ve been around the block a time or two before with plumbing repairs, it’s likely that you have had your run-in with plumbing companies that shouldn’t be trusted. They promise you the moon! And then hand you a rock. They ensure that they have a team of experts who can help with whatever plumbing needs you have, only to leave you high and dry, looking for someone else to finish the job they started.

Why Should I Have A Tankless Water Heater Installed?

Are you considering having a tankless water heater installed? Or just want to know the general benefits of a tankless heater? We’d love to tell you all about it! We have decades of experience installing tankless water heaters in Wausau, WI, and the feedback that our clients have given us on whether or not they like the system has been overwhelmingly positive. There are three major reasons that our clients tell us are their favorite things about their tankless water heaters. They are:

1. They Save Water: Consider how much time you leave the water running just waiting for it to get hot. Is it only seconds? Does it take longer than a minute? If so, you are wasting literal tons of water annually. With a tankless water heater, you get access to hot water virtually immediately. Not only is this an environmentally conscious decision, but this could also help decrease your overall water bill each month. 
2. They Save On Electricity: While it might not seem true, a tankless water heater can also save you money on your electric bill! Think about how a traditional water heater works. It stores large amounts of water, heating it all simultaneously, pouring it all out, and repeating the process over and over again. The energy it takes to heat an entire load of water simultaneously is much more considerable than the energy it takes to warm small sections of water in increments. With a tankless water heater, water is heated as it passes through the unit, meaning the exertion of energy is more consistent, sure, but smaller in total capacity. 
3. You Never Run Out Of Hot Water: Finally, and likely most noticeably, our clients love that they never run out of hot water! They could set a world record for the world’s longest hot shower and still have more hot water left over! So if you have a larger family, or tend to go through hot water fast, consider installing a tankless water heater! 

If I Might Have A Leak Underground, Will You Have To Dig Up My Yard To Find It?

A question we hear often is: Will you have to dig up my yard or floors to find a leak or blockage? Luckily, with the growing technological resources at our disposal, that answer is almost always NO! Nowadays, we are able to use a video camera on the end of a snaking wire to inspect below ground for leaks and blocks. This makes it so that we can easily find the source of a leak, the location of a blockage, or where tree roots have started to invade your pipes. This high-definition camera fits snuggly on the end of a fiber-optic wire and effortlessly weaves through your pipe system, allowing us to inspect your pipes with minimal damage. 

Is A Backed Up Toilet A Plumbing Emergency?

Another question we hear from our clients concerns a backed-up toilet. If you’ve ever realized that your toilet is overflowing in the middle of the night, you might feel as though you are in the midst of a major emergency. However, in most cases, a backed-up toilet is not actually an emergency—though we do realize how stressful it can be. Actually, in many cases, a backed-up toilet is a relatively easy thing to repair. In fact, it’s actually recommended that you attempt to unblock your own toilet before calling for a plumber. Once you have turned the water off at the source (there should be a valve near where the toilet’s water line enters the floor or wall), try plunging the toilet a few times with your plunger. This should clear the blockage and allow the toilet to drain. 

If the toilet has frequently become backed up, this is the time when you would want to call a plumber. Frequent toilet back-ups typically mean you have a larger blockage that needs to be taken care of by a professional. Also, if your toilet begins overflowing with old sewage, and can’t be stopped by turning off the water source, this is typically considered a plumbing emergency.
