Pride Plumbing came out and replaced a well's 20-gallon A.O. Smith AquaAir pressure tank, 30/50 pressure switch, and pump gauge. We then replaced the well's outlet piping with new PEX piping and fittings, added a ball shutoff valve for isolation purposes, connected onto the existing black roll piping going to the home, and charged the pressure tank. When we tested the repairs for leaks and proper operation, there were no issues.

Pride Plumbing came out, and after shutting off the water, replaced a leaking outside sillcock with a new Prier 34.67LF-R sillcock along with tying it into the existing main water supply line underneath the house with new PEX piping and fittings. We then turned the water back on, drained air and debris out of the line, and tested for leaks with no issues. We also provided a cost estimate to repipe and replace the water supply lines under the house in the crawlspace, going to the fixtures in the kitchen (sink faucet, dishwasher, and ice maker), one bathroom (sink, toilet, and bathtub/shower), the washing machine (installing a new plastic washer box and hot and cold hose bibs or boiler drains), and the water heater, with new PEX piping and fittings (installing new 1/4 turn water shut-off valves on each fixture inside the house along with new above-floor stainless steel braided water supply lines) and replace two outside hose bib spigots with new Woodford frost-free models.

Pride Plumbing was called out for low water pressure from a well. Our inspection determined that the well's Pentair P42B0007A2-01 submersible pump had gone out. We pulled out the well's black roll piping and submersible pump. Then, after preparing a new pump assembly, we inserted a new A.Y. MacDonald 24075K submersible pump and black roll piping (with an attached torque arrestor and cable guards) back down into the well. Next, we reconnected the well's piping and used a heat shrink kit to reseal the well. Finally, after turning the well back on, we opened an outside hose bib spigot and drained debris out of the water line, letting it run for several minutes.

Pride Plumbing was called out for an American Standard toilet's Sloan flush valve spewing water. Our inspection found that the flush valve had been kicked and broken. After shutting off the water, we removed and replaced the toilet’s Sloan flush valve. We then turned the water back on and tested for leaks and proper operation with no issues.

Pride Plumbing came out and performed the following work: 1) after shutting off the water, we removed a leaking shower valve and trim; 2) installed a new shower valve with new trim and a flange; 3) removed a leaking shower drain and P-trap from their shower pan; 4) installed a new shower drain and P-trap along with a new bar sink strainer, flange tailpiece, and slip joint nuts and washers; and 5) turned the water back on and tested the shower valve and drain for leaks and proper operation.

Pride Plumbing came out and provided a cost estimate to install a sediment filter in front of a well's pressure tank and install a whole-house water filtration system.

Pride Plumbing came out and provided a cost estimate to perform the following work: 1) dig down in the yard to expose a defective section of the outside main sewer septic drain line that was broken and leaking; 2) replace that section of sewer line with new 4-inch PVC piping and fittings along with installing a new PVC outside clean out - connecting back onto the existing cast iron piping with new Fernco couplings; 3) test the new piping for leaks and working order; and 4) backfill, tamp, and spread grass seed and straw after the work has been completed.

Pride Plumbing came out and rebuilt, tested, and recertified a leaking Watts 009M2QT reduced pressure zone (RPZ) backflow and filed the appropriate certification paperwork with the county. The rebuild required us to remove and replace check valve #1, check valve #2, and the relief valve along with the unit's flange gaskets and bolts and cleaning the RPZ valve body.

Pride Plumbing came out and replaced a leaking Febco 860 reduced pressure zone (RPZ) backflow. When we dug up the backflow's water line, we found a 2-inch PVC water main underneath the concrete pad that was leaking. After shutting off the water, we used PVC pressure piping and fittings and made the repair to the water line (adding a Hymax coupling to connect the backflow onto the water main). Then we removed the old backflow; installed a new Zurn Wilkins 975XL3 backflow assembly with new PEX piping and fittings, ProPress copper fittings, flange gaskets, and mounting bolts and nuts; turned the water back on and checked for leaks. We then performed a certification test on the backflow, and it passed. Pride Plumbing then filed the backflow’s certification paperwork with the appropriate agencies.

Pride Plumbing was called out to investigate the cause of a water stain on a basement ceiling. After gaining access into the ceiling, our thorough inspection and attempts to recreate a leak did not find any plumbing sources or causes for the water stain. We left the ceiling open and advised the customer to monitor it to see if the leak returns. We provided a cost estimate to use a Superior Signal 5E electric smoke blower to perform a smoke test.
