One of the toilets includes a bidet seat, which will require relocation of the emergency stop to accommodate the installation. Both bathrooms are not yet finished being painted. The customer will contact the office if they decide to proceed with the installation.

Upon arrival the homeowner showed me to the back bathroom where the toilet was leaking. I took the lid off and noticed that the supply line from the fill valve to the flush valve was not properly connected. I reconnected the supply line back to the flush valve, and then flushed the toilet. The toilet no longer leaks and is working properly. This toilet we did a major rebuild on one year ago to the date.

John, the plumber will provide a leak search for existing moisture on kitchen wall. This is a three step process. The first step is to include a water pressure test to ensure that you do not have an existing water, main leak, causing the moisture. Second step is to test the shower pan along with the vanity drain arm. And third step would be is to cut access in drywall to ensure this is not a roof leak. Any drywall that may need to be removed John the plumber is not responsible for replacement of this drywall. Customer understands that 50% of this leak search will go towards the repair cost. During my leak search and as per video shown there is two separate leaks. the existing drain waste arm for the vanity located in the master bathroom has a severe leak which is causing the extreme amount of moisture and Mold growth.

Homeowner called regarding a kitchen sink that was not draining. Upon arrival, I spoke with the tenant, who also reported that the hall bathroom tub was draining very slowly. The tenant demonstrated the issue, confirming the slow drainage. I contacted the homeowner to explain the situation and provided an estimate, which was approved, to perform the following: Clear the kitchen sink drain using a K-50 sewer snaking machine Clear the tub drain obstruction using a drill snake Both drains are now functioning properly with no remaining issues. A large clump of hair was removed from the tub drain. While no visible obstruction was retrieved from the kitchen line, resistance was felt during snaking, and the blockage was successfully cleared.

Homeowner contacted us regarding a suspected break in a PVC water line. Upon arrival, it was confirmed that the dock line located beneath the dock had failed, resulting in continuous water drainage into the canal. The homeowner had already shut off the home's main emergency valve to stop the leak. At the time of inspection, high tide prevented visual access to the damaged line, making it impossible to provide a clear scope of work. A follow-up visit will be required once the tide has lowered to properly assess the situation and proceed with repairs. The homeowner has a floating raft available and accessible for use during the repair.

Issue Reported: Homeowner reported a slow-draining kitchen sink. Initial Assessment: Upon arrival, I was shown the kitchen sink where the tubular drainage piping had already been disconnected by the homeowner. I conducted a visual inspection and confirmed that the issue appeared to be isolated to the kitchen sink waste arm. No signs of backup or slow drainage were observed in any other fixtures throughout the home. Work Performed: I discussed possible solutions with the homeowner and provided an estimate to use a K-50 sewer snaking machine to clear the waste arm line. The estimate was approved on-site. I proceeded with snaking the line using the K-50 and successfully cleared a moderate blockage from the waste arm. After clearing the line, I reassembled the tubular piping and conducted a flow test by running the kitchen faucet continuously. I monitored the drainage performance at both the sink and the exterior cleanout located in the front yard. No signs of backflow, gurgling, or slow

Upon arrival to the location, I met with Debbie and a couple entrusted techs who were already on site. The apartment was already in the dry out phase, sections blocked off. Debbie asked what I was here for, I told her the kitchen and she pointed me in the right direction. I seen what needed to be done and called bo from entrusted to double check and also to get approval for the scope of the work. After getting the ok, I got what was needed and removed all the plumbing. The shut off valves were already holding shut, but I capped them off anyway. I left the knobs and pvc tubular in the bag just in case it was being used again. I asked Debbie if she was using faucet or strainer again, she stated she has new ones. Hence, all is good at the moment for removal of the cabinet. Tech will undo the plumbing to the kitchen so cabinets could be removed.

Customer called reporting a stoppage in the kitchen sink. Upon arrival, I spoke with the homeowner, who also mentioned gurgling noises coming from the toilets. Based on this information, I suspected the issue was not limited to the kitchen line but instead indicated a main sewer drain line blockage. After assessing the situation, I determined that a sewer snake machine would be required to access and clear the blockage via the main roof stack. Additionally, the homeowner requested: Replacement of the kitchen sink basket strainer Reconnection of the tubular P-trap and kitchen drain piping, which was not properly connected at the time I contacted Deborah, the payee (not on site), to explain the situation in detail. I provided estimates for both the main line snaking and the kitchen plumbing repair, which were approved over the phone. Work Completed: Successfully cleared the main sewer line stoppage via the roof stack access Fully tested all related fixtures to ensure proper drainage and

We met with the homeowner, who is in the process of selling their property and is gathering quotes for the water heater. This is typical when preparing a home for sale. Based on the age of the current heater, we recommend replacement. We discussed various options, including Prestige and Hybrid models, but the homeowner prefers a standard replacement, possibly upgrading from a 40-gallon to a 50-gallon unit. We will provide quotes for both a permitted installation and a non-permitted installation, allowing the homeowner to decide. Regardless of permit status, the work will be performed in the same professional manner.

We replaced the water heater today and tested it after the work was complete. The water heater is functioning properly and heating as expected. The homeowner turned the thermostat up to 140°F, which we explained we cannot adjust for him. The electrical breaker for the unit is undersized. It is currently a 20-amp breaker, but it should be a 25-amp breaker. However, the wire is 10-gauge, which is acceptable for the application. At the request of the homeowner, we removed the timer and FPL box. We also installed a water heater pan, which was not present with the old water heater. We had to identify the correct breakers. During troubleshooting, the AC breaker may have been turned off, but we did not cause any damage to the AC. All work was tested and is operating correctly. Recommendations: • No immediate plumbing issues beyond today’s work. • Future recommendation: install a filtration system, as the home water supply is in poor condition and would greatly benefit from filtration

Customer was informed that if this happens again that we would have to rebuild the inside of this unit and customer was OK with that

This is not a service call. The sole purpose of this is for plumber to prepare an additional estimate for customer.

Upon arrival, customer had a leaking kitchen trap arm, so I provided an estimate to the condo association. They approve the estimate and as per pictures and video shown the piping has been replaced, and a water test has taken place to ensure longevity and no leaks.

Our mitigation team has been contacted. John the plumber offers a one-year parts and labor hassle, free warranty at no extra cost to customer.
