Upon arrival, we met with the homeowner, who had already removed the drawers beneath the cooktop to provide access. We proceeded to diagnose the cooktop and the gas supply leading to it. Our testing confirmed that the cooktop is receiving the correct gas pressure up to the regulator. Based on our findings, the issue appears to be with the cooktop itself or possibly the regulator that is part of the cooktop assembly. We advised the homeowner to contact a qualified appliance technician to further diagnose and address the issue with the cooktop and regulator.

This is a warranty call not a recall. As per previous video taken, this unit was tested on three separate occasions and was not leaking after initial installation.

For this job, Ewa has inlet water pressure to the apartment of 40 psi which is below average. She felt as if she had low pressure and based off the reading to her water heater, she is correct. Ewa mentioned there were a few remodels in the building prior, she doesn’t know if that could have to do with the loss of pressure. I told her if they added more fixtures which require water than it can. Before she spends money on a fix for the low water pressure, she wants to make sure it’s her unit and not a common building issue. There’s currently no visible way to test the building as the valves out in front don’t work per Ewa. The building should be tested for adequate pressure.

Upon arrival, I removed the existing shower tower for the upstairs bathroom and installed new customer supplied shower tower. As per videos and pictures taken everything is in proper working condition and level.

Upon arrival, we met with the homeowner’s daughter and informed her that we were there to initiate a gas leak inspection. We began by preparing the area for diagnostic work, which included removing the drawers beneath the cooktop, pulling out the washer and dryer units, and clearing access to the water heater. We proceeded to isolate the gas supply to the three affected appliances using their respective shut-off valves. During the leak detection process, we identified two issues: A gas leak at the flexible supply line connected to the cooktop. A hissing noise coming from inside the water heater, indicating a possible internal gas leak. We replaced the faulty flexible gas connector servicing the cooktop. After completing the repair, we restored gas service to the cooktop and dryer. However, the water heater remains isolated from the gas supply due to the suspected internal issue. We have provided a written estimate for water heater replacement. At this time, gas service has been restore

Customer reported a gas smell throughout the home. The customer contacted the fire department, who responded, ventilated the property, and locked the gas meter for safety. They advised the customer to schedule a gas leak detection service. We provided the customer with an estimate for gas leak detection, which was reviewed, signed, and approved for the following day. At this time, we were unable to perform the leak detection due to not having the proper equipment on hand. We are scheduled to return tomorrow to complete the gas leak detection.

Customer called regarding a toilet leaking around the base. Upon arrival, I was shown the guest bathroom toilet.

The work area was cleaned and left in good condition.

On arrival the homeowner showed me the guest bathroom and powder room with new American standard toilets installed. The homeowner said the guest bathroom toilet was making a loud noise and I was not able to recreate it. The powder bathroom toilet has an old emergency shutoff and has water bypassing one of the flappers which is causing it to fill when the water in the tank gets low enough to trigger the fill valve. I wrote an estimate to change the emergency shutoff and minor rebuild for the powder room toilet as well as the emergency shutoffs for the sink. I presented the estimate to the homeowner and he wants to get in touch with where he bought the toilets so he can get a new flapper set. He said he will call back when he has figured everything out with the company he bought the toilets from so we can go with the provided estimate.

Upon arrival I met with the homeowner that has drywall and cabinet water damage in the kitchen underneath the kitchen sink. Also the drywall behind the cabinet had water damage. The restoration company already removed the drywall prior to my inspection. I performed a few different tests for inspection to see if I could recreate the leak. This included a pressure drop test where I put my pressure gauge on the main to see if it dropped any water pressure, which it didn’t. I also filled up the sink , there leaks after doing that. I also ran water on the backsplash that homeowner had just recaulked do to discoloration and the seal was cracked. No water leaked into the cabinet then. The only time I saw water leaking into the cabinet is when I ran water In between the countertop and the sink which is separating a little bit from the countertop. After my diagnosis I feel that the water was getting into the cabinet from the backsplash and the seal from the sink to the countertop. Also there wa

Upon arrival to the location, I met with Ewa who was downstairs on her way to throw the trash out and recognized me. Moreover, we went upstairs and she began by explaining she doesn’t live here full time, she just came back from New York and she realized her kitchen faucet has low water pressure. I asked if it was all over the home or just the kitchen she felt that. She said she doesn’t know and asked me to go around and check. Ewa has 3 bathrooms in the home, which all had normal pressure but one faucet which I explained, 9/10 times, it’s the aerator holding debris. I asked to then see the water heater and main valve and the water heater was replaced 3 years a go, and so was the main valve, but they replaced with another gate valve. Ewa mentioned she wasn’t here when they did the work, she wanted a 1/4 turn. I checked the valve to see if it was opened all the way and it was. Furthermore, i unscrewed the kitchen faucet aerator and the water pressure was a lot better than before. Ewa st
