Master Plumbing Services

There are many common problems you may be experiencing with your toilet, such as: 

• Clogging
• Improper flushing
• Whistling when the tank is filling
• Taking a long time to flush
• Gurgling from the sink or tub when you flush

There are signs that a water heater is not performing as it should:

• Banging noises
• A difference in the taste and smell of your water
• A lack of hot water
• Water that is not as hot as usual
• Rust or particulates that are visible in your water

The age of the water heater is a factor since most water heaters only last 10 to 12 years.

Water softener systems remove minerals from your household water. These minerals are the cause of “hard water,” which creates many issues with your plumbing system and prevents soaps from lathering, leaves dishes with spots, and causes rings in the tub or toilet. Showering with hard water can cause skin conditions due to residual soap staying on the skin and clogging pores. 

Our team of master plumbers offers residential sewer and water line replacement and installation services. If you have recurring plumbing-related issues in your home that last more than a few months, this is a sign that you need to hire a certified plumber to assess the issue for repair or, if necessary, to perform a sewer line replacement.

Sump pumps are a necessity if your home’s basement takes on water during heavy rains. A sump is a hole that is created below the surface of the basement floor. Sump pumps move water from your basement to the outside.  

Every home experiences clogged drains. At Modern Plumbing & Heating, we offer permanent solutions to clear out any drain obstructions. We use professional drain cleaning solutions, such as electric snakes or hydro-jetting, to dislodge severe drain clogs, which may eventually cause a complete sewage backup if left untreated.

The sewer lateral connects your home to the main sewer line and its function is to get rid of toilet waste and all water that goes down your drains. Over time, sewer laterals get dirty, which can lead to blockages and clogs and, in some cases, damage the lines. Tree root infiltration can also block sewer lines.

Garbage disposals are more than just a convenience. They reduce the amount of garbage you put in your kitchen trash can and protect your drains from clogs. In addition, they are a fairly inexpensive solution to extend the longevity of your pipes.

We can expertly connect all of your household appliances. Are you getting a new refrigerator with an automatic icemaker? We can run the water line needed to supply the ice maker. We can connect your new dishwasher or a clothes-washing machine to ensure that there is no leakage.

The components in a faucet wear out over time, causing dripping or leaking, which is annoying and wastes quite a bit of water. Often times, a leaky faucet can be fixed by replacing the O-rings or replacing the entire cartridge. In some cases, the only solution to resolve issues with your faucet is to replace it, especially if the faucet is over 15 years old or has frequent issues. 

In homes with a septic system, problems may arise because the waste and materials flushed in its toilets and washed down sinks. Materials such as cooking oil, grease, paper products and hygiene products may negatively impact your septic system’s efficiency.  

To ensure the health and efficiency of your home’s septic system and prevent any possible issues, you should have it inspected at regular intervals.
