From the Hartwells

Letting someone into your house to work on the pipes takes trust. Here is how we try to earn it.

We give you a two-hour arrival window and call when we are on the way. Before any work starts, we look at the job and write the price down. You sign it, then we pick up a wrench. If we find something we did not expect, we stop and show you.

We wear shoe covers, lay down drop cloths and take the old parts with us. You should not have to clean up after your plumber.

What we work on

Most calls are one of three kinds of job.

Fix it

  • Repairs and leaksDripping faucets, running toilets, burst pipes and the leak you can hear but cannot find.
  • Drain cleaningSlow sinks, backed-up tubs and main line clogs, cleared by cable.
  • Outdoor spigots and winterizingFrost-proof spigots fitted, and outside lines drained before the first freeze.

Replace it

  • Water heatersTank and tankless units, sized for your household. We haul the old one away.
  • Repiping older homesGalvanized and polybutylene supply lines replaced with copper or PEX, one section at a time.
  • Well pumps and pressure tanksPumps, pressure switches and tanks for homes on a well.

Improve it

  • Kitchen and bath plumbing for remodelsRough-in and finish plumbing, timed to your contractor's schedule.
  • Water softeners and filtrationWe test your water first, then fit a softener or filter that suits it.

Older home?

Older houses are most of what we do. If yours was built before 1980, we check four things on the first visit and tell you what we find.

First-visit inspectionHouses built before 1980

  • Galvanized supply lines

    We look for rust at the joints and weak flow at the taps. Galvanized pipe closes up from the inside.

  • Cast-iron drains

    We check the stack and the basement runs for cracks, scale and weeping joints.

  • Shutoff valves

    We find the main and every fixture shutoff, then test that each one still turns and seals.

  • Water pressure

    We put a gauge on it. High pressure wears out old pipe and fittings faster.

You keep a copy of the sheet, whether or not you hire us for the work.
