Pride Plumbing was called out for a mobile home that had no water. Our inspection found that all the water valves in and underneath the home were on and the water meter wasn't turning. So, we turned off the water, removed the water meter, turned the water back on, and found that no water was coming in at all. However, all the surrounding homes were getting water. It was our belief that the county's water supply line going to the water meter was leaking. We would need to come out with an excavator and perform exploratory digging to find the issue. This would possibly require us to dig up a short section of the road also.

Our inspection found that a hose clamp had deteriorated and fallen off a PVC outlet pipe and allowed the pipe to eventually be pushed off its fitting by the water pressure. We transitioned the pipe to PEX with stainless-steel fittings, tested for leaks, and corrected the issue. We also provided cost estimates to either 1) replace the well's 30/50 pump switch and gauge, charge the tank, and replace the well's submersible pump and wiring; 2) install a new submersible pump assembly (this would include replacing the pump, piping, wiring, tank tee, and well seal); or 3) replace the well tank, pump switch, pump gauge, and piping at the well head, charge the new well tank, and adjust the pump switch.

We also removed a large root ball from the drain line coming into the tank.
