Plumbing Maintenance
Plumbing maintenance is the best way to catch small issues before they become larger, costlier problems. But a maintenance plan shouldn’t require a monthly subscription, or frequent, disruptive visits from salesman in disguise.
Homeowners can complete most plumbing maintenance tasks themselves. And the ones they can’t only need to be done once a year.
Johnson-Melloh Residential offers a range of maintenance services, but we won’t use a maintenance visit as an excuse to sell you something you don’t need.
If you need a water heater flushed annually, we can do that. If need someone to check and tighten your toilet seat…we can do that too, but you won’t find it as a charged line item in a bloated maintenance plan.
We provide you what you need. Nothing more, nothing less.

Plumbing FAQ
There could be a number of reasons.
Common causes include a tripped circuit breaker for electric heaters, a pilot light that went out on gas models, or heavy mineral sediment buildup inside the tank.
Flushing the tank once a year helps prevent the buildup of sediment.
Common causes of low water pressure include faucet aerator clogs, older pipes with scale, or a water shut-off valve that is not fully open. Fortunately, the homeowner can easily address two of these causes by cleaning aerators and checking valves.
If the low water flow problem persists, the problem could be in the supply lines and require a professional inspection.
Most manufacturers recommend flushing your water heater once a year to remove sediment buildup, which can reduce efficiency and shorten the life of the tank.
Insulate exposed pipes, keep your home heated, let faucets drip during extreme cold, and disconnect outdoor hoses before temperatures drop. Knowing where your main shutoff valve is can also limit damage if a pipe does burst.
Call a professional for issues like persistent clogs, sewer odors, low water pressure throughout the house, water heater problems, or any leak you can’t easily identify or stop.
