Pride Plumbing came out and removed a urinal, capped of its water and drain lines, and relocated its automatic flush sensor to a commercial toilet.
Pride Plumbing came out and replaced a leaking 38-gallon electric EnviroTemp lowboy water heater with a new 38-gallon electric Rheem PROE38-S2-RH95-B lowboy model. This included removing and disposing of the old water heater; installing water heater pads, the new water heater, ball water shut-off valves, PEX and stainless steel water supply lines to the water heater connectors, a brass drain valve, bleeding the air out of the water lines, ensuring that the unit’s temperature and pressure (T&P) relief valve was properly vented, wiring the water heater's electrical connections, and setting the unit to its appropriate operating temperature. We also provided a cost estimate to replace a faulty pressure reducing valve (PRV) at the water meter.
Pride Plumbing was called out for a humming noise in the home's water pipes when no water was being used. Our inspection determined that the issue was being caused by a faulty Gerber toilet tank’s water fill valve. After shutting off the water, we drained the water from the tank, replaced the water fill valve with a new Fluidmaster PRO45B model along with its above floor braided stainless-steel water supply line. Then we turned the water back on, filled the tank, tested for leaks and proper operation, and the noise in the pipes stopped. We also provided a cost estimate to replace the toilet with a new Gerber Viper model. This would include draining and pulling the old toilet, inspecting/cleaning/replacing the flange, replacing the toilet bowl, toilet tank, flapper, water fill valve, tank to bowl gasket and bolts, seat, wax ring gasket, toilet bowl bolts, toilet bowl bolt washers, toilet bowl bolt caps, and above-floor stainless steel braided water supply line.
Pride Plumbing came out and provided a cost estimate to replace a 40-gallon electric American ProLine E62-50H-045DV water heater with a new 40-gallon electric model (this would include removing and disposing of the old water heater after disconnecting its electrical connections and inlet and outlet water lines; installing water heater pads, the water heater, thermal expansion tank, ball water shut-off valves, PEX and stainless steel water supply lines to the water heater's water connections, brass drain valve, connecting the unit’s electrical connections (adding a Romex connector), bleeding the air out of the water lines, ensuring that the unit’s temperature and pressure (T&P) relief valve was properly vented, and setting the unit to its appropriate operating temperature).
Pride Plumbing came out and used a sewer machine to unclog a bathroom sink drain and a floor drain. We also provided a cost estimate to replace the floor drain’s drain assembly and drain line through the floor to under the house in the crawlspace, and to where it ties into the main sewer drain stack, with new PVC piping and fittings.
Pride Plumbing came out, dug down to and uncovered the outside main sewer septic drain line, cut into it, and installed a new two-way PVC cleanout with a cap (connecting it to the existing outside main sewer septic drain line with new PVC fittings and/or Fernco couplings).
Pride Plumbing was called out for sewage backing up into the home. We uncovered the outside main sewer septic drain line, cut a hole in it, and used a water pressure device to clear the blockage. We inserted a camera into the drain line to verify that the blockage had cleared and to determine the condition of the drain line (it found a root intrusion). We then covered the hole we cut in the line with a new Fernco coupling, tested for leaks, and covered up the drain line. We also provided a cost estimate to dig down outside the home's foundation to access the outside main sewer septic drain line, cut into the line, install a new two-way PVC cleanout, and cover the hole after installation. We’ll then test the new piping for leaks and working order and if no issues are found, backfill the area we dug out.
Pride Plumbing was called out for sewage backing up into the home. We went underneath the home, cut the PVC drain line, used a sewer machine down through the drain line and cleared the blockage, connected the two pieces of cut drain line back together with a new Fernco coupling, and tested for leaks and proper drainage with no further issues. We inserted a camera into the drain line and it revealed multiple issues. Based on this, we provided a cost estimate to 1) trench a ditch from the house to the town sewer tap to expose and remove the outside main sewer septic drain line; 2) install a new 4-inch PVC sewer drain line (connecting it to the main drain line under the home) along with proper cleanouts and fittings per code; 3) install tracer wire in the ditch along with the new sewer drain line; and 4) backfill, tamp, and spread grass seed and straw after the work has been inspected and approved by Stanly County's Inspection Department.
Pride Plumbing was called out for sewage backing up into the building. We used a sewer machine down through a floor drain in the bathroom and cleared the blockage. We tested the floor drain and multiple fixtures for proper drainage with no issues.
Pride Plumbing was called out for a clogged commercial toilet. After pulling the toilet, we used a sewer machine down through the toilet's flange and cleared the blockage. Before replacing the toilet bowl's wax ring gasket, braided stainless-steel water supply line, and closet bolts, and resetting the toilet, we inserted a camera down through the flange, but it did not reveal any issues with the toilet's drain line. After resetting the toilet, we flushed it several times with no further issues. We also provided a cost estimate to trench a ditch from the town sewer tap to the building to expose and replace the main outside sewer septic drain line with new PVC piping and fittings along with installing proper cleanouts and fittings per code.
Pride Plumbing was called out for a water leak at a 40-gallon electric Whirlpool E2F40RD045V water heater. We found a leak on a polybutylene water supply line. After shutting off the water, we cut out the leaking section of pipe and repaired it with new PEX piping and fittings. We then cut the water back on, drained out any debris at an outside hose bib spigot, and tested for leaks with no further issues.
Pride Plumbing came out and performed the following work: 1) replaced six boiler drain spigots on a service sink with six new Chicago Faucets 305-CP chrome models and T&S mounting kits; and 2) replaced a P-trap and its flange tailpieces along with the water supply stops and stainless-steel water supply lines underneath the sink.
Pride Plumbing came out and replaced a handwash sink's faucet with a new T&S faucet along with connecting its hot and cold water supply lines.
Pride Plumbing was called out for issues with phantom flushing from an American Standard toilet and a leaking bathtub drain. After inspection of the bathtub, we found that someone had used silicone underneath the bathtub's drain in an attempt to seal it, but it had deteriorated and was leaking. We removed the silicone and applied plumbers puddy in its place to fix the drain leaking issue. After inspection of the toilet, we found that its toilet tank flapper was leaking and needed to be replaced. We removed the old flapper and installed a new Lavelle 3060BP red Korky universal model. We then tested the toilet for proper operation with no further issues. We also provided a cost estimate to replace the toilet with a new Gerber Viper model.
Pride Plumbing came out and removed two trough sinks off a concrete block wall and busted open the wall to access the drain line that was completely clogged. We cut out the section of clogged pipe and replaced with it with new PVC piping and fittings and Fernco couplings. Once the repair was made, we installed a metal panel over the access we cut in the concrete block and rehung the trough sinks on the wall.
