Water Leak Detection & Repair

A dripping faucet is an annoyance, while a leak in a hidden pipe is a nightmare. Leaks should be detected and fixed quickly in order to prevent unnecessary property damage and to save you from spending unnecessary money. If you suspect a leak anywhere in your plumbing system, call My Friend The Plumber to detect and make a repair as soon as possible. Don’t wait until it gets worse and you end up with a real mess on your hands. Checking the water meter is one way to tell if you have a leak. To check the meter you would first have to turn off all the water in your home along with all faucets and make sure the dishwasher and washing machine are not running. Check the water meter to see if it changes. If so, you most likely have a fast-moving leak. If the water meter doesn’t change immediately, then try checking it again in a couple hours. If it has changed despite all the water being shut off, you may be dealing with a slower leak. The leak could be anywhere after the meter, or even underground.

Faucet Repair & Replacement

Faucet repair and faucet replacement aren’t always as easy as the do-it-yourself shows make them look. Sometimes valuable information is omitted that may be necessary in completing the project successfully. My Friend The Plumber has that expert plumbing knowledge and will make the faucet repair or replacement service for you so that you don’t have to worry about the unknown. There is no contract with any particular brand so you have the choice to pick up your own faucet or you can let My Friend The Plumber pick up the faucet for you.  There are four kinds of faucets: compression, cartridge (sleeve), ceramic disk, and ball type. A compression faucet relies on rubber washers to seal the valve seat. Rubber washers wear out and must be replaced occasionally. The other types, often called washerless faucets, last longer but they too can develop leaks. When these cartridge, ceramic-disk or ball-type faucets leak, you can usually replace the O-ring or neoprene seal that’s causing the leak or replace the entire assembly. Whatever you decide to do, feel free to call My Friend The Plumber for expert knowledge and service.

Garbage Disposal Repair & Replacement

Garbage disposal repair and garbage disposal installation are also part of the professional plumbing services My Friend The Plumber offers. A garbage disposal is an incredibly convenient appliance to have in order to liquefy food remnants and wash them down the drain, instead of storing them in trash containers or onto your property. They are also the best way to prevent the odor of old thrown out food left in garbage cans. If you have an odor coming from your garbage disposals then you most likely have food debris stuck inside it. A tried and true way to get rid of that odor is to simply place ice cubes along with either lemon or orange peels into the disposal and run it for about 10 secs or until all the ice cubes have been crushed. This method will help dislodge the stuck food debris. Next, run water and dish soap in the disposal for about 30 seconds. The disposal with aggregate the soap and help clean it. Then run cold water into the running disposal for another 30 seconds to rinse it.
