Expert Solutions for Plumbing and HVAC Issues
We provide fast leak discovery utilizing acoustic tracing, thermal imaging, and pressure testing to identify defects without compromising finishes. For heating, we repair furnaces and boilers to manufacturer specifications - including combustion analysis, venting verification, gas-pressure calibration, and control diagnostics - making sure systems run within code tolerances. We lock out hazardous equipment, resolve defects, and restore service with documented test results.
Swift Leak Identification
The most efficient method to safeguard your property and maintain code compliance is with rapid leak detection utilizing calibrated instruments and tested methods. Our process starts with turning off isolation valves, recording meter movement, and verifying pressures. Following this we utilize acoustic detection to locate pressurized line leaks in slabs, walls, or buried runs, removing ambient noise to isolate small flow signatures. Heat mapping shows temperature variations that point to concealed water paths, distinguishing supply leaks from water accumulation or infiltration. We validate findings through tracer gas or dye testing as needed. You receive a comprehensive report, photos, and coordinates for precise repairs, minimizing demolition, preventing mold risk, and ensuring full code compliance.
Furnace and Boiler Repair
After detecting and recording leaks, we move directly to returning heat to safe working order by diagnosing boilers and furnaces to code. We begin with comprehensive diagnostics: checking gas pressure, manifold configurations, vent draft, air intake, and safeties. We test control switches, flame sensors, ignition components, water pumps, and zone valves, then check thermal exchangers for damage and flue pathways for obstructions. For hydronic systems, we purge air, adjust tank charge, and optimize circulation. For furnaces, we adjust fan performance and confirm sealed ductwork.
Our service includes clearing clogs, descaling heat-transfer surfaces, and replacing worn gaskets and valves using rated components. Our technicians optimize combustion levels for CO/CO2 and O2, verifying proper draft function and condensate balance. Lastly, we record all code compliance measures, work on optimizing energy usage, and ensure stable operational efficiency and secure system shutdown.
Safety-Priority Repairs and Preventive Maintenance
Proactively handling each repair with safety at the forefront maintains the compliance and reliability of your plumbing and heating systems. All work is performed to code specifications, with verifiable documentation and test results. We start by conducting regular system checks to identify maintenance needs, leaks, combustion concerns, and venting problems prior to escalation. We conduct carbon monoxide checks on fuel-burning systems, verify proper drafting, and ensure proper make-up air and clearance specifications. We update faulty shutoff valves, maintain appropriate bonding and grounding, and install seismic strapping where required. We inspect pressure relief valves, expansion tanks, and backflow prevention systems, then calibrate thermostats and safety limits. Drainage traps, condensate lines, and sump systems are cleaned and prepared to avoid contamination and flooding. We conclude by performing load testing, system labeling, and developing an action plan.
Clear Pricing, Communication, and Customer Service
We reliably itemize all costs including labor, materials, permits, and inspections at the beginning so you can approve work without surprises. You receive comprehensive, code-specific initial quotes outlining all specifications including fixtures, piping, BTU requirements, and clearances. Our team reviews all choices, expenses, and regulatory requirements prior to your commitment.
We keep clear communication all through the job. You'll receive ongoing notifications-arrival verification, initial site inspection, change-order pricing, and final test data-with images, gauge readings, and system measurements. Should on-site situations demand modifications, we note all details, identify pertinent codes, and obtain your authorization prior to continuing.
