Plumbing Repair Service In Fort Lauderdale, FL

Upon arrival to the location, I met with realtor Kayla who showed me inside. She was dealing with the electrician when I arrived. Moreover, she explained the inspector was out and pointed out a few things but she would like for me to do an evaluation myself before we go over the inspectors concerns. Furthermore, there’s 4 bathrooms in the home, a tankless gas water heater on the roof, which is from 2018 according to the inspector. Kayla also mentioned the new owners would like to add a bathroom on the 4th floor, where there’s just a small closet and access to the roof. There is plumbing near the closet, I told her it’s possible. I noticed a few things looking through the home, which some were in line with the inspectors notes. For example, the main valve and the corrosion on the gas piping to the tankless. After gathering my information, I asked Kayla is it ok for me to call dyan to go over the options. She mentioned it would be best to send an email or text first as she is very busy.

Customer called for a camera inspection because the home was constantly having stoppages. When we arrived we arrived we proceeded with offering a camera inspection that was accepted. The home had a current stoppage at the time that was cleared prior to the camera inspection, due to transitions done in which the home is partially PVC and cast iron that is in poor condition we had to run the camera in multiple stacks in which through one of the stacks the horizontals that connects the guest bathroom was severely scaled not allowing the camera to pass through. So we proceeded with trying to access the existing clean out to see if there was any ruptures going towards city lateral, so we can then provide an estimate as a bundle to the customer if there are any other problems in the sewer. We found that in between the city connection and the home there was a ruptured pipe with roots penetrating through rupture. After these findings we then provided estimates as a solution to these problems t

Upon doing my inspection for blockage, I came across the master bathroom needs a minor rebuild. Also, the kitchen sink dual valve needs to be replaced due to leaking.

While all these fixtures were running, nothing backed up and clean out was flowing good. There is no backup in this house. Customer declined for me to camera the system to ensure no blockage. Customer verified everything is back in proper working condition and is satisfied with today’s visit.

Customer reported active water dripping from dining room chandelier with visible wet spot on ceiling. Performed leak detection and inspection. Identified that master bathroom is located directly above the affected area. Cut access point in ceiling to inspect concealed piping. All visible PVC drain and supply lines for master bathroom (including shower, jetted tub, dual lavs, and toilet) were pressure-tested through fixture operation. No active leaks detected — all joints and fittings were water-tight. Discovered standing water near ceiling cavity that had entered the electrical box for chandelier. Based on customer’s input, cleaning personnel heavily soaked the master bath floor during routine cleaning, which is the likely source of the leak via floor penetration.

We met with the property manager and performed a comprehensive walkthrough of the entire property. The property manager requested three separate quotes: 1. Tunneling the entire home 2. Tunneling just the two bathrooms (hall and master) 3. Installing a metered digital shutoff valve at the main line We discussed the scope of each job in detail and informed the property manager that we would follow up with written quotes via email. Below are the full details and breakdowns for each quote, along with all relevant disclaimers. General Notes • All tunneling work will be performed in accordance with local code and best plumbing practices. • Any deviations from the described scope will require a written change order and approval from the property manager. • All quotes are contingent upon receiving city approval and permit clearance. ⸻

We met with the homeowner today to assess the existing main water line and provide a solution for rerouting and updating the system. The goal is to run a new water line directly to the area where a new main shutoff valve will be installed. This new location is currently being used as a hose bib connection, where two water lines are seen entering the ground. We proposed opening the wall at the existing main valve and disconnecting the current incoming water line. This will effectively eliminate the original water entry point. The new water line will be routed from the meter to the home by trenching through the soil and penetrating the asphalt driveway to reach the desired location. This recommendation assumes that only one water line is coming through the current floor penetration, which is in accordance with standard plumbing codes. Once the trenching and installation are complete, a city inspection will be scheduled. After the inspector approves the work, the trench may be backfil
