Plumbing Repair Service In Tamarac FL

Upon arrival, the customer presented us with the antiquated water heater. Although the unit was still operational and showed no signs of leakage, its replacement was required by the homeowner's insurance provider due to the unit’s age—exceeding twenty years—and the increased risk of mechanical failure. We removed the outdated unit and installed a new Rheem 3500-watt, 40-gallon medium-capacity electric water heater. As part of the service, we also replaced the emergency shut-off valve at no additional charge. The old heater was responsibly removed and disposed of in accordance with environmental standards. We offered to hardwire the new water heater directly into the electrical system; however, the customer declined this option in order to preserve the functionality of their existing timer. The unit was therefore installed in a manner that maintains compatibility with their current setup. Following installation, we thoroughly checked the system for leaks—none were detected. We confir

Professional Service Summary: Upon arrival, the client escorted our technicians to the affected restroom, where a main sewer line backup was actively occurring. The toilet fixture had been previously removed by the client, revealing stagnant water retained within the closet flange. Initial diagnostic efforts commenced via rooftop access, wherein approximately 60 linear feet of drain cable was deployed through the vent stack. The cable ultimately encountered significant resistance, likely at or near the municipal tap connection. Although partial drainage was momentarily achieved, subsequent cabling attempts resulted in a resurgence of effluent, culminating in overflow from the exposed flange. A secondary approach was initiated directly through the flange, again deploying approximately 60 feet of cable. Upon retrieval, the cable’s cone head was found to be impacted with foreign material, specifically a fragment resembling asphalt and a single disposable wipe. Notably, the client disclo
