Why You Need a Functioning Sump Pump
When heavy rains fall in Albemarle, it’s important to prevent floodwaters from entering your property. One way to do this is with a fully functioning sump pump. These systems can help prevent a plumbing emergency from occurring at your house by preventing water from flooding your property and avoiding severe damage to the flooring, walls, insulation, electrical work, and more. This wreckage can also lead to the formation of mold and mildew.
Signs You Need Professional Drain Cleaning Services
When your drains start to slow, it’s important to seek professional drain cleaning services to let the experts remove the blockages and have your pipes properly repaired. Some symptoms to watch for that can indicate you need drain cleaning services are:
- Slow drains: These can indicate a variety of problems, including a clog, narrowed pipes, or other buildups.
- Frequent clogs: If you have recurring clogs - even after you regularly clean out hair and other blockages from the pipes -- it can mean you are not successfully removing the blockage. In this case, it’s important to hire a plumber to completely remove the clog.
- Multiple clogs: If you have several clogs at the same time, it could indicate a severe blockage deep within your main line.
- Foul odor: if there are foul odors coming from your drains, it can signal a minor issue - like trapped food -- or a major issue, like a problem with a sewer line.
- Flooding: One of the worst problems associated with clogged drains is a sewage backup. If there is flooding in your basement or near a floor drain, this could indicate a clog and it may just be a matter of time before the drain stops working completely and you end up with contaminated water all over your floor.

What To Expect During Routine Water Heater Services
Experts recommend that you have your water heater serviced at least once a year to keep it working properly. During these routine services you can expect a plumber to perform the following tasks:
- Drain the basin and remove any buildup of sediment, which can create a myriad of issues if not done regularly.
- Inspect both the inside and outside of the unit for hairline cracks or signs of aging.
- Check for any cracks in the hoses.
- Inspect and change your filters when needed.
- Make sure the unit is operating at its maximum efficiency.

Pride Plumbing came out and rebuilt, tested, and recertified a leaking Apollo RPLF4A reduced pressure zone (RPZ) backflow. After shutting off the water, we removed and replaced the unit's cap, check valve #1, check valve #2, and all rubber O-rings and gaskets and rebuilt the relief valve. Once they were all replaced and lubricated, we reassembled the backflow, turned the water back on, and checked for leaks. We tested the RPZ assembly and it passed inspection. Pride Plumbing filed the appropriate certification paperwork with Stanly County.


Pride Plumbing came out and replaced a rusted and leaking 40-gallon electric Whirlpool water heater with a new 40-gallon electric Rheem PROE40-M2-RH95 model. First, after disconnecting its electrical connections and inlet and outlet water lines, we removed and disposed of the old water heater. Then we installed water heater pads, the new water heater, a thermal expansion tank, ball water shut-off valves, PEX and stainless steel water supply lines to the water heater connectors, a brass drain valve, and wired up the electrical connections to the new water heater. Finally, we bled the air out of the water lines, ensured that the unit’s temperature and pressure (T&P) relief valve was properly vented, and set the unit to its appropriate operating temperature.

Pride Plumbing came out and provided a cost estimate to replace a leaking outside hose bib spigot with a new Woodford frost-free model along with tying it into the existing main water supply line underneath the home with new PEX piping and fittings.

Pride Plumbing was called out for a kitchen sink faucet's sprayer leaking. We replaced the kitchen sink faucet with a new customer supplied Moen Caldwell CA87060SRS centerset model with a sprayer.

We tested the faucet and sprayer for leaks and proper operation with no issues.
