Pride Plumbing came out and replaced a faulty pressure reducing valve (PRV) at the water meter (attaching it to the existing black roll outside main water supply line with new PEX piping and fittings and adding a ball water shutoff valve) due to high water pressure in the home (90+ PSI). We also removed and replaced the valve box and lid.
Pride Plumbing came out and replaced a dishwasher with a new customer-supplied Whirlpool model. We disconnected the old unit's water and drain lines and pulled it out of place. After unboxing the new one, we moved it to the dishwasher space. We connected the water and drain lines to it and tested for leaks. We then finished sliding it into place and secured it to the kitchen counter and installed its toe panel.

Pride Plumbing came out and installed a new PVC drain line for a Whirlpool washing machine because its terracotta drain piping had been compromised by roots. Since the original drain line was in a slab, after installing the piping behind the washer, we ran the new PVC line outside the wall and down into the main line running into the septic tank. We ran the new drain line down the wall, turned it towards the main highway, and then tied into the septic tank main line. We also ensured that it was California vented.

This is due to the customer having a higher than usual water bill.
Pride Plumbing was called out for a clogged dental sink drain. We removed the sink drain’s P-trap and drain line going into the wall and used a sewer machine down through the drain and cleared the blockage. We also resealed a drain line cap underneath a second dental sink that was loose and causing a sewage odor in the building. We provided a cost estimate to replace the dental sink's P-trap, drain and drain line through the floor to under the building in the crawlspace, and to where it ties into the main sewer drain stack, with new PVC piping and fittings.
Pride Plumbing was called out for a clogged washing machine drain line. We used a sewer machine down through the drain line and cleared the blockage; however, we pulled back roots. Our inspection found that they needed a new drain line for the washing machine, because their terracotta drain piping had been compromised by roots. Since that line was in a slab, a new PVC line needed to be ran outside the wall and down into the main line running into their septic tank. It also needed to be California vented. The new line being ran needed to go down the wall about a foot or two, then turn towards the main highway about 5-8 feet, and then tied into the septic tank main line. We provided a cost estimate to perform this work.
Pride Plumbing came out and performed the following work: 1) drilled through the floor inside a breakroom's double-sink cabinet; 2) connected new PVC piping to the building's main drain stack underneath the building and ran it up through the floor and up to the sink, adding a new P-trap, drain assembly, and air admittance valve; 3) inserted a drain snake into the sink's drain to clear it of any blockages; 4) inserted the drain snake down through a sink in the dental assistant's area and cleared a blockage in it; and 5) tested all the drains for proper drainage with no further issues.
Pride Plumbing was called out for a water leak on a water meter. We uncovered the water meter, loosened a yoke attached to the customer's side of the meter, and inspected the yoke's threads and seal. We found that the yoke's seal had been compromised at some point. We contacted the town and had them deliver a new seal. We then installed the seal and reassembled the yoke, being sure to apply thread tape and pipe dope. We tested for leaks with no further issues and covered the meter back up. We also provided a cost estimate to trench a ditch from the water meter to the home and replace the black roll main outside water supply line with new black roll and PEX piping and fittings along with installing a new pressure reducing valve (PRV) and ball water shutoff valve at the water meter.
