FAQs
What is a preventive maintenance plumbing plan and how does it work?
A preventive maintenance plan is a scheduled service agreement that keeps your home or business plumbing system in peak condition year-round. Our licensed Altamont plumbers visit your property at preset intervals (typically twice a year) to inspect pipes, fixtures, water heaters, valves, and drains. We perform adjustments, cleaning, and minor repairs on the spot and provide a written report with recommendations so small issues are corrected before they become emergency calls.
What services are included in your Altamont preventive maintenance visits?
Each visit covers a 30-point inspection that includes: water-pressure testing, leak detection on visible and hidden lines, drain flow analysis, water-heater flushing and anode-rod check, fixture seal and supply-line inspection, sump pump and back-flow device testing, shut-off valve lubrication, and dye tests for toilet leaks. We also tighten loose fittings, replace standard washers, and recalibrate temperature settings as needed—all at no extra charge to plan members.
How can a maintenance plan save me money compared to calling only when something breaks?
Reactive repairs often involve costly after-hours fees, water-damage remediation, and replacement of ruined fixtures. By catching problems early—like a pinhole leak or a failing water-heater element—our plan prevents those major expenses. National studies show proactive plumbing maintenance can cut total repair and water-usage costs by up to 30%. In addition, plan members receive a 10% discount on any larger repairs or fixture upgrades discovered during inspections.
How often will technicians come to my home or business?
Most residential customers choose our semi-annual schedule: one visit in spring to prepare for heavy summer water usage and another in fall to winterize the system. Light-commercial customers (restaurants, salons, small offices) usually opt for quarterly visits because of higher wear and regulatory requirements. We can customize the frequency based on pipe age, water quality, and occupancy patterns unique to Altamont properties.
Is the maintenance plan transferable if I sell my property?
Yes. The agreement attaches to the address, not the owner, so the remaining term can be transferred to the buyer at no cost. This adds documented value to your listing by showing that the plumbing system has been professionally maintained, which can streamline inspections and justify a higher asking price.
