Plumbing Inspection Services

Staying on top of your routine home maintenance checklist can be overwhelming, but there are a few things you shouldn’t neglect, and plumbing is one of them. It is vital to have routine plumbing inspections and take into account preventative measures to keep your home’s plumbing system in good shape. 

We bring to you certified, professional plumbing inspectors who can offer their expertise whenever you need it the most.

Our team will dig deep to find issues that you would have never discovered if you had tried to do it on your own.

Signs you need sewer cleaning

The sewer line is one of the most important parts of your property’s plumbing since it is the pipe that removes the collected wastewater from your home and carries it to the sewer main in the street.

Signs you need drain cleaning service

Drain clogs can cause serious damage to your plumbing infrastructure and the overall state of your home.

Warning signs your main sewer is broke

There’s no homeowner who wants to deal with dysfunctional plumbing, especially when it can cost thousands in repairs. Your home’s plumbing system extends beyond the pipes inside your house to the main sewer line that connects to them. Most major plumbing problems usually happen on the mainline, and it’s best to avoid them as much as possible. Damaged sewer lines can flood your bathrooms with sewage, requiring costly repairs.

  • Sewage backup and blockages
  • Foul odors
  • Extra green and lush patches in grass
  • Presence of pest and rodents
  • Pools of septic waste
  • Foundation cracks, settlement, and sinkholes
When should you replace your sewer line

The pipes in your home may appear like they’ll last as long as your home does, and we truly hope that they do. Sadly, this is not usually the case. Some signs to consider:

  • Old age
  • Persistent clogs
  • Water fixture malfunction
  • Strange sounds
  • Big trees: Roots are a common cause of pipe damage. If there are big, old trees on your property—or just next to it—there might be huge root systems encroaching on your sewage system.

Sewer replacement services

Many of our clients ask— how long should your sewer line last?

Your sewer line is something you rarely see. Chances are everything will be functioning like clockwork, until one day you’ll start noticing a number of clogs. Depending on how you use your bathroom and kitchen, you might need to replace it far sooner than you might think.

  • Clay pipes can last about 50–60years.
  • Cast iron pipes can last up to 75–100 years.
  • PVC pipes haven’t been tested thoroughly in homes to be able to measure!
  • Any of these numbers can shift based on circumstances within the drains, and the soil
Factors that influence the lifespan of your sewer line

There’s no way to truly predict how long your sewer line will last. Some folks will encounter small issues with the sewer line here and there, and that is something to be expected. Others will discover they have to repair the sewer line as often as possible or indeed reline, or reroute it. It all depends!

Nearby property development or other sources of ground movement (such as an earthquake) may cause the sewer line to break. Tree roots might puncture the sewer line as they’re expanding. Conditions inside the soil can speed up the rate of corrosion.

Garbage disposal services

Before we explain in detail how you can know in advance when to request garbage disposal replacement, we’ll quickly take a look on the two main types of garbage disposal models.

A garbage disposal installed under the sink, also known as a waste chopper or garburator

A garbage disposal is a machine that shreds food waste into tiny bits that won’t clog your pipes. It is one of the essential gadgets in your kitchen. It helps control food waste stench and bacteria. Besides, it protects the environment, decreases your trash, and leads to a reduction in kitchen pipe leaks. If you purchase a garbage disposal system today, you can expect it to serve you for about eight to fifteen years. That’s a long time!

Positive Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning, provides quick and affordable garbage disposal services in Orange County.

Types of garbage disposal systems

Before we explain in detail how you can know in advance when to request garbage disposal replacement, we’ll quickly take a look on the two main types of garbage disposal models.

  • The Continuous Feed Model: This model keeps running as long as the switch is on. It is therefore easy to use. You shouldn’t be surprised that it is by far the most popular type throughout the nation.
  • The Batch Feed Garbage Disposal: This is not so popular but is safer to use, especially if you have little children in your home. It includes a stopper that prevents children from putting their hands in the unit and turning it on at the same time.

Irrespective of the type of garbage disposal you believe is ideal for your home, regular maintenance with our garbage disposal cleaner helps keep your system working effectively year round.

Common signs you need a garbage disposal replacement

Even though garbage disposals tend to last for several years in a row, they eventually need to be replaced.

Here are some common signs your garbage disposal has left its best days behind:

  • Your garbage disposal is in constant need of repairs
  • Your garbage disposal has stopped working
  • Damaged or dull blades
  • Constant odors
  • Frequent resets
  • Presence of a leak
  • Strange noises
  • Recurring clogs

Garbage disposal installation or replacement is not one of those things you should attempt to install on your own, despite some DIY videos encouraging people to do so. If you do it on your own, you may damage the new unit in the process. If you’re unlucky, you could damage your plumbing system as well. A damaged plumbing system requires major repairs, and you’ll end up spending way more in the process. You can avoid such a scenario by bringing in a professional.
