Plumbing Repair Service In Lauderdale-by-the-Sea FL

Upon arrival, the customer directed us to the second room bathroom, where they requested the replacement of the existing toilet due to age and a leak. The customer supplied the new toilet for installation. We carefully removed the old unit, ensuring no damage to the surrounding area, and installed the new toilet using a fresh wax ring and new Johnny bolts to ensure a secure and proper fit. After installation, we applied caulking around the base of the toilet to provide a clean, finished appearance and to prevent moisture intrusion. Additionally, we replaced the leaking angle stop to address the plumbing issue and ensure optimal functionality.

Upon arrival the tenant showed me the hallway bathroom that was backed up. I had to pull the toilet in order to run my sewer machine to clear the stoppage. I ran approximately 60 feet to clear the stoppage. After running the sewer machine I ran the lavatory and supply line to make sure that the stoppage was cleared before resetting the toilet. After doing that I reset the toilet and flushed it several times everything is flushing good, and the toilet is nice and tight to the floor.

Upon arrival, customer informed me he had a leaking P trap in the master bathroom. Customer travels back and forth between Chicago and Florida. After diagnostic, I determined that the cause of the leak was the pop up drain assembly. Pop up drain was leaking from the tailpiece butted up against the overflow. I also showed customer that whoever installed their vanity broke the sink overflow connection and glued it back on with carpenters glue. The only thing holding it on was the tailpiece nut. I recommend that the customer replace both the pop up drain and the p trap. Customer agreed. I used a wolverine brass Crome pop up drain. Also a 1 1/2” P trap

We ran roughly 50 feet through the exterior cleanout and successfully cleared the blockage. We went inside, flushed the toilet, and ran the shower, confirming that everything was flowing great. We also provided the customer with an estimate to replace the main valve and water heater due to both being old and corroded. We advised the customer that this is not a permanent fix.

During the annual membership walkthrough, we conducted a comprehensive inspection of the property and identified a few areas requiring maintenance and upgrades. In the guest bathroom, we recommended replacing the angle stops due to their age and potential for future failure.

As a preventive measure, we recommended replacing these with modern, more reliable fixtures to mitigate the risk of water damage.

These recommendations are intended to enhance the reliability and longevity of the home’s plumbing system while proactively addressing potential issues.

Purpose of Visit: We met with the homeowner to discuss options for replacing their existing water heater. Our primary focus was to present and compare two water heater options: a hybrid water heater and a standard electric water heater. Discussion Summary 1. Standard Water Heater: • Pros: • Lower initial cost: The upfront cost of a standard water heater is significantly lower than that of a hybrid unit. • Simpler installation: A standard water heater is straightforward to install, often requiring less time and fewer modifications to the existing system. • Cons: • Higher energy consumption: Standard water heaters are less efficient, leading to higher monthly energy bills. • Shorter lifespan: Typically, standard units have a lifespan of 8–12 years. • Limited performance: Slower recovery times for hot water, especially in larger households. 2. Hybrid Water Heater: • Pros: • Exceptional energy efficiency: Hybrid water heaters use heat pump technology, reducing energy consump
