Our Services
Our services include, but are not limited to the following list. We offer these services to both commercial and residential customers.
Drain Cleaning
Don’t use DIY solutions for drain cleaning in your home. We recommend calling professional plumbers in Davenport, IA instead. Here are the primary reasons why chemical drain cleaners don’t work as well as our solutions:
- They remedy the symptoms, not the cause. A chemical drain cleaner may clear your clog for a few months. However, if you notice that the clog comes back, this is a sign that you have a deeper problem that cannot be solved with a store-bought fix. Using chemical drain cleaners may actually hide the true cause of the problem by making it seem like the issue is gone for a short period of time.
- They corrode your pipes with repeated use. Chemical drain cleaners can cause damage to your pipes if you use them over and over again. This won’t happen if you just use them once, but keep this in mind if you’re trying to replace professional services with store-bought ones. A plumber’s drain cleaning methods will be much safer for your plumbing system.
Water Heaters
Water heaters are the true heroes of your household. They allow you to take hot showers and baths, clean clothes, wash dishes, and generally stay comfortable and healthy in your own home. Without hot water, your household will be much less hygienic. This is why it’s so important to contact us quickly if you realize you need water heater repair. We will assess your current appliance and determine whether or not we can repair it, replacing it if necessary.
Sump Pumps
Davenport is positioned along the banks of the Mississippi River, leaving it especially vulnerable to flooding, especially during the spring and summer months. A sump pump will save you from the possibility of flooding in most cases, as it pumps water out of your home once it reaches a certain level.
This is how sump pumps work: a basin or pit is dug below the lowest level of your home, usually a basement. This pit fills with water, and when that water reaches a certain level, a float switch triggers your sump pump. The pump turns on and redirects the water through a discharge pipe, safely away from your home.
Repiping
Some of the oldest homes in the region are in Davenport, with over 25% of homes here built before 1940. This means you may have pipes that are old and need to be replaced. Our expert Davenport plumbers understand how to handle delicate, worn plumbing systems. We’ll also honestly tell you when your pipes can still reliably be repaired, as well as when they truly need to be replaced to save you hassle and money.
Water Treatment
You may need water treatment if you notice any of the following:
- Bad tasting or smelling water: This could be evidence of an existing water filtration system failing or a new problem with your water.
- Limescale or mineral build-up: You may notice this in or around fixtures or drains, and it is usually an indication of hard water.
- Dry hair or skin: This could be a sign that the water in your home is hard and will improve if you get a water softener or conditioner installed.
- Stains on clothes or streaky dishes: If you feel like nothing in your home is getting clean, this could also be a sign of hard or otherwise contaminated water.
We pride ourselves on offering reasonable prices, with up-front pricing available. We provide financing options so you can pay in manageable installments too.
