Replaced the failed sump pump with a new cast-iron submersible unit featuring a vertical float switch and threaded discharge port. Installed the pump, connected it to the discharge line, and verified proper float activation and dewatering operation.

Responded to a main drain/sewer line backup and located the exterior cleanout access, a capped fitting recessed in the turf at the foundation wall near the downspout. Removed the cleanout cap and cleared the main sewer line with a rooter machine, removing the obstruction and restoring full flow through the drain line.

Responded to clogged bathtub and kitchen sink drains with associated drain fly activity, and found heavy organic buildup, hair, and biofilm residue around both drain openings. Cleared the obstructions using drain cleaning equipment to restore proper flow in both fixtures, and removed the debris and grime that was serving as a breeding source for the drain flies. Recommended routine drain maintenance and cleaning to prevent recurrence of blockages and fly activity.

Accessed the in-wall plumbing at the repair location and documented the existing conditions, including multiple pipe penetrations through the drywall and a cut-out exposing a heavily corroded cast iron fitting with flaking rust and debris buildup. Marked layout reference lines on the wall for the planned repair work and surveyed the surrounding drywall and joint compound finish to assess the scope of the repair.

Completed the sold plumbing repair in the shower area, which required a helper and extension ladder for overhead access. Inspected the shower drain, which was missing its cover and showed heavy mineral buildup, debris, and minor surface rust around the drain ring, and verified that the surrounding glass enclosure, tile, and ceiling fixtures were undamaged.

Assessed the existing sewage ejector system and prepared an estimate for removal and replacement of the pump. The installation consists of a sealed basin with a bolted cover, 2-inch Schedule 40 DWV discharge piping with a union and ball isolation valve, and a taped power cord routed to a nearby outlet. Replacement scope includes disconnecting the discharge piping at the union, removing the existing pump, installing a new ejector pump, and restoring the discharge assembly and electrical connection.

Pulled the toilet to gain direct access to the closet flange and drain line in order to clear the reported blockage. Inspected the exposed flange, which showed heavy residue from the old wax seal, and left the closet bolts in place for toilet reinstallation.

Inspected the water heater installation and found it noncompliant with code, with heavy corrosion at the hot outlet fitting and rust staining on the tank top indicating prior leakage. Corrected the installation by installing a 1-1/2" x 3/4" ProPress tee and a 1-1/2" dielectric union to isolate dissimilar metals, and added a thermal expansion tank set to 60 PSI on the water supply line.

Responded to a warranty call for a slow-draining sink and a suspected leak at previously installed drain piping. Inspected the sink drain assembly, strainer flange, and PVC trap, then cleared the obstruction, tightened the slip-joint connections, and confirmed proper drainage with no leaks at the fittings.

Addressed a leaking toilet by removing the fixture and exposing the closet flange, then installing a new wax ring with a plastic sleeve and setting the closet bolts to restore a watertight seal at the base. The surrounding tile was cleaned of residue to prepare the area for reinstallation of the toilet.

Replaced the aged supply stops with new brass quarter-turn angle valves and braided stainless steel supply lines on the copper supply stubs, restoring reliable fixture shutoff. Reconnected the drain assembly, including the PVC P-trap and corrugated drain hose, and verified all joints for leaks and proper operation. Inspected adjacent copper, PVC, and iron piping in the mechanical space and found no active leaks.

Removed and disposed of the existing Everbilt ejector pump, then installed a new Zoeller grinder pump with a new check valve in the sewage basin. Resealed the pit lid and performed a full operational test to confirm proper pump cycling and discharge. Installation is backed by a lifetime workmanship warranty and a 3-year parts warranty.

Inspected the toilet tank for intermittent running and found the flush valve flapper and fill valve assembly showing wear, with sediment and staining present in the tank. Serviced the flapper, flush valve seat, and fill valve to restore a proper seal and correct water level, eliminating the periodic refill cycles. Tested multiple flush cycles to confirm the tank holds water, the fill valve shuts off completely, and the toilet operates without running.

Removed the jammed garbage disposal and installed a new unit, connecting it to the existing sink flange, chrome P-trap, and electrical supply via flexible conduit. Verified secure mounting, leak-free drain connections, and proper operation, with a protective silicone mat placed in the cabinet base.

Responded to a warranty call for moisture at the stationary pump elbow connection and inspected the associated utility sink supply and drain assemblies. Ran water through the basin to check for leaks and examined the PVC P-trap and slip-joint connections beneath the sink, with a catch basin in place to monitor for seepage. Verified the system was draining properly and the affected area was addressed and left dry.

Assessed the kitchen supply piping to quote installation of a dedicated dishwasher shut-off valve. Inspected the existing copper supply line and in-line brass ball valve at the masonry wall penetration, noting corrosion, mineral buildup, and verdigris staining at the elbow and joints, along with a capped copper stub. Evaluated the cramped, cluttered work area and prepared the estimate for the independent isolation valve.

Performed a camera inspection of the drain system, accessing the line through a cut-in access opening in the wall to expose a heavily corroded cast-iron fitting with a hex-head cleanout plug showing significant rust scaling and mineral buildup. Also inspected a deep vertical shaft with layered masonry walls, observing standing water at the base with debris and an object partially visible near the bottom. Findings were documented with photos for further evaluation and recommendations.

Repaired the tub faucet and cleared the tub drain line using a drain snake, restoring proper flow and operation. Inspected the pipe and shutoff valve to the exterior spigot and noted a black mold spot on the bathroom tile for the customer's attention. Drain stopper and basin were inspected post-service and found clean, with no visible damage, rust, or buildup around the drain.

Responded to a reported commercial toilet backup and performed a visual inspection of the fixture and restroom. The toilet bowl water was at a normal level with no overflow or standing water on the floor, and the ceiling below showed no stains, cracks, or signs of water intrusion. No active blockage or leak damage was observed at the time of inspection; the estimate was prepared for further drain and sewer line evaluation and any recommended corrective work.

Responded to a clogged kitchen sink with a leaking spigot. Inspected the fixture and associated drain line, and documented the accessible plumbing area behind the wall access panel, which showed aged wood paneling and framing with no panel cover in place. Recommended follow-up repair of the leaking spigot and any further drain line service, pending customer approval of estimates.
