Call to provide inspection on property. Property is a rental unit, town home style with community shared utilities.

Water Heater Flush Service [Tank Flush]: This service involves thoroughly flushing your tank-style water heater to remove accumulated sediment, minerals, and debris that naturally build up over time. Using controlled water pressure, the technician will drain and flush the interior of the tank for approximately 45 minutes to 1 hour, depending on the unit’s condition. Please note: Flushing older units that haven’t received regular manufacturer recommended servicing can potentially lead to internal leaks. Chen Plumbing cannot be held responsible for leaks resulting from the dislodging of accumulated hard water deposits during flushing, which may subsequently cause leaks in the unit. House Main ¾” Shutoff Valve Replacement With Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV): Remove and replace the existing ¾” main shutoff valve with a new full-port ball valve to enhance system control and long-term reliability. A new ¾” pressure reducing valve (PRV) will be installed downstream to help manage incoming
Call for gas leak in crawlspace. Arrived and spoke with Eric. He states that they called Gas light initially after smelling gas outside. Gas light came out and determined that the main pressure regulator on the gas meter needed to be replaced. While on site gas light also found two leaks inside the crawlspace above the hvac unit. Gas has been off since Sunday. I discussed history of the issue with Eric, and we went to the crawlspace together. The two leaks inside locations were above the hvac unit. The first was on a trac pipe fitting, and we were able to observe it with leak detection liquid. After tightening the fitting, the leak is almost imperceptible. The second leak was not able to be found, and the photo from gas light was also not helpful to identify the leak. During the inspection I found several issues and have pointed each out to Eric. 1. Copper gas line, galvanized iron, and old valves are all prone to failures. I recommend considering partially repiping the gas lines t

Customers toilet was loose at base. Pulled toilet and reset. Checked flange. Found no issue in flange. After reseating toilet checked for leaks and caulked toilet.
Call for issue with shower diverter. I spoke with Ms. Paula, and she expressed frustration after a recent repair performed on the master bathroom shower system. She provided a diverter for a three handle shower, and the system is not functioning correctly after we installed the diverter. I inspected the shower and found that the diverter may not be intended only for this shower valve, and it can consistently demonstrate water hammer, or even fail to cycle to open or closed, when testing. I removed and cleaned debris from the brass body, and from the diverter. Due to the age and condition of the valve, I recommend replacing the entire valve. However, to demonstrate our commitment to excellent customer service, I am willing to return and install a new diverter if the diverter can be replaced under warranty, or if an original fit diverter can be verified and located. Ms. Paula stated she would prefer to replace the shower valve. When discussing leaks and reputable companies, we also

Big Snake Main Drain From Toilet Pull & Reset (Drain Cleaning): Remove toilet. Run big snake to attempt to clear blockage in main line. Toilet reinstall with new wax seal, closet bolts if necessary, flexible metal-braided supply line, and caulking. While expertly performed, Chen Plumbing does not guarantee using the big snake will clear the blockage. NOTE: Drain cleaning services are not covered under warranty. Due to the nature of drain blockages and clogs, we cannot guarantee that the issue will not reoccur after service. Our technicians will do their best to resolve the problem during the visit, but factors such as underlying plumbing conditions, recurring debris, and pipe damage may affect long-term results. Performed work mentioned above. Insured line was not clogged by flushing toilet over 20 times and running water down Drain line to confirm line was no longer clogged. Everything is working as intended at this time.

Customer had an loosely secured thermal expansion tank above water heater in the garage. Removed the old, failed thermal, and installed a new thermal on a bracket in the garage above the heater. Both the house pressure and the age of the heater are in a safe range.

Client called us out due to the fixtures in the basement backing up when a lot of water was used. Client has a city sewer cleanout out in the front yard by the road, and all these years have thought they were on city sewer. We pulled up the basement toilet and ran sewer camera. It took me out the back of the home, right under the concrete pad patio, where there are two 6” cleanouts just to the side of, that are full of poo and such. It turns out, client is actually on a septic system instead of sewer. After pulling toilet we saw the flange was not the correct flange for the pipe, so we replaced that flange with proper, then reset the toilet with new bolts and beauty caps, as well as new toilet supply line. After testing, we caulked around the base of the toilet. Client will need to call a septic company to further resolve this issue. Metro septic 678-873-7934
