Drain Cleaning and Clog Removal

A backed-up drain turns simple daily tasks into major headaches, whether it is the kitchen sink full of last night’s dinner remnants or the bathroom tub refusing to empty after a long day. In busy Lake Oswego households, clear drains keep everything moving smoothly so you can focus on family instead of calling for help every few weeks.

Common Problems We Fix

• Your kitchen sink drains slower each week no matter how careful you are with food scraps.
• The bathroom sink backs up every time someone brushes their teeth or washes their face.
• The toilet refuses to flush properly and keeps filling higher than it should.
• Water pools around the floor drain in the basement after a heavy rain.
• The shower takes forever to empty even with the stopper removed.
• Gurgling sounds come from multiple drains at once when one fixture is running.
• Strong odors rise from the sink or tub even after using store-bought cleaners.
• The garbage disposal hums but nothing goes down the drain.

We begin every call with a quick camera inspection to pinpoint exactly where the buildup or blockage sits so we avoid guesswork. From there we use targeted hydro jetting or professional snaking tools to break up grease, hair, soap scum, or tree roots completely while protecting your existing pipes. This method clears the line thoroughly and helps prevent the same clog from returning soon after. During busier cooking months around the holidays, these issues show up more often, and our approach keeps your system running without unnecessary disruption.

Water Heater Repair and Installation

Nothing disrupts a morning routine faster than stepping into a cold shower because the water heater gave out overnight. Lake Oswego families rely on consistent hot water for everything from kids getting ready for school to quick cleanups after dinner, so a dependable unit makes daily life much easier.

Common Problems We Fix

• You turn the faucet and only lukewarm or cold water comes out.
• The unit makes rumbling or popping noises when it tries to heat.
• Rust colored water appears right after the heater kicks on.
• Water leaks form around the base of the tank or connections.
• The pilot light keeps going out no matter how many times you relight it.
• Hot water runs out faster than it used to even with normal use.
• Strange smells come from the hot water taps throughout the house.
• The pressure valve keeps releasing water unexpectedly.

When we arrive we test the entire system including temperature settings, pressure relief valves, and electrical or gas connections to find the exact cause. For repair we replace worn parts with quality components that match your setup. For replacement or new tankless water heater installation we measure your household needs, select the right capacity model, and complete the hookup with proper venting and safety checks so you get years of reliable performance without wasting energy.

Pipe Repair and Repiping Services

Pipes carry everything your home needs yet stay hidden behind walls and under floors until something goes wrong. When a leak develops or pressure drops across the house, quick professional attention prevents bigger damage to drywall, flooring, or belongings.

Common Problems We Fix

• Water stains appear on ceilings or walls with no visible source.
• Water pressure drops noticeably when multiple taps run at once.
• You hear banging or rattling sounds inside the walls when turning faucets on.
• Small drips keep forming under sinks or near the water meter.
• Rusty or metallic tasting water comes from multiple fixtures.
• Pipes feel soft or spongy when you press on exposed sections.
• Water pools in the yard near the foundation after normal use.
• The hot water side loses pressure faster than the cold side.

We use camera inspection and listening tools to locate the exact section without opening up more wall or floor than necessary. For minor issues we cut out the damaged segment and install durable new pipe with secure fittings. For full repiping we plan the route carefully, replace everything systematically, and pressure test the entire system before closing things up. This keeps your home dry and your water flowing cleanly for the long term.

Water Line Repair and Replacement

The main water line from the street to your house works quietly until it cracks or shifts, then you notice low pressure or wet spots in the lawn. Getting this fixed quickly protects your foundation and yard from ongoing moisture problems.

Common Problems We Fix

• Water pressure drops suddenly throughout the entire house.
• Wet or soggy areas appear in the lawn near the water meter.
• Your meter spins even when all indoor water is turned off.
• Discolored water flows from every tap after the ground thaws.
• You hear hissing sounds near the curb or foundation.
• The sprinkler system loses pressure faster than normal.
• Water tastes different or has a slight cloudiness.
• Low flow affects both hot and cold at the same time.

We start with a pressure test and camera run from the meter to confirm the break or corrosion spot. For repairs we excavate only the damaged section, replace it with modern high-grade line, and backfill carefully to restore your landscaping. Full main water line replacement follows the same careful process but covers the entire run so you avoid repeat issues down the road.

Toilet, Faucet and Fixture Repair and Installation

Running toilets waste hundreds of gallons each month while dripping faucets keep you awake at night. Updating or repairing these everyday fixtures brings comfort and efficiency back to every bathroom and kitchen in your Lake Oswego home.

Common Problems We Fix

• The toilet runs constantly even after you jiggle the handle.
• Faucets drip steadily no matter how tight you turn them.
• Shower heads spray unevenly or lose pressure over time.
• Hot and cold mix poorly so temperature swings during use.
• Toilet flushes weakly and leaves residue behind.
• New fixtures you installed yourself still leak at the base.
• Handles become loose or hard to turn smoothly.
• Shower valves stick or refuse to shut off completely.

We remove the old component, inspect the supply lines and connections for hidden wear, then install or repair with precise seals and adjustments. Every job ends with a full test under normal pressure so you know the fixture works quietly and efficiently the moment we leave.

Garbage Disposal Repair and Installation

A jammed garbage disposal stops meal cleanup cold and leaves unpleasant smells in the kitchen. A properly working unit handles daily scraps without constant worry or service calls.

Common Problems We Fix

• The disposal hums but the blades do not spin at all.
• Water backs up in the sink when the unit runs.
• Strange grinding or rattling noises come from under the sink.
• Food stays in the chamber and starts to smell after a day.
• The reset button trips repeatedly with light use.
• Water leaks appear around the mounting flange.
• The unit runs but nothing gets chopped or drained.
• Power reaches the switch yet the motor stays silent.

We first check for foreign objects with a flashlight and tongs, then test the motor and electrical connections safely. Minor jams clear quickly while worn units get replaced with models sized for your household. Installation includes proper wiring, sealing, and a final test run so everything drains cleanly again.

Gas Line Services

Gas lines power stoves, fireplaces, and water heaters safely when installed and maintained correctly. Any sign of trouble needs immediate professional attention to keep your household secure.

Common Problems We Fix

• You smell a faint gas odor near appliances or outdoors.
• The stove burner lights unevenly or goes out quickly.
• Gas fireplace fails to ignite even after recent use.
• Pressure drops when multiple gas appliances run together.
• New appliance connections leak slightly at the fittings.
• Older lines show signs of corrosion near the meter.
• Pilot lights refuse to stay lit on the water heater.
• You need new gas line installation for a kitchen remodel.

If you smell gas or suspect a gas leak, go outside immediately and call 911 – this is a serious emergency that needs urgent attention from the gas company. For all other repairs we test lines with approved detectors, replace damaged sections with code compliant materials, and pressure test the full run before restoring service. New gas line installation follows the same safety steps so every connection holds strong for years.

Emergency Plumbing and 24 Hour Service

When water pours from a broken pipe at midnight or a sewer backs up on a Sunday, waiting until Monday is not an option. Fast response keeps damage limited and your home livable.

Common Problems We Fix

• Water floods the floor from a burst pipe overnight.
• The main sewer line blocks and backs up into the house.
• A toilet overflows repeatedly with no warning.
• Hot water stops completely during peak evening hours.
• Gas odors appear near the water heater after a storm.
• The sump pump stops working during heavy rain.
• A fixture leaks steadily and cannot be shut off.
• Low pressure turns into no water at all suddenly.

We answer calls around the clock and arrive prepared with tools to stop the immediate flow or backup. From there we walk you through exactly what caused the issue and how we will repair it permanently so the same emergency does not happen again.

Slab Leak Detection and Repair

Slab leaks hide under concrete and cause foundation damage before you notice higher water bills or warm spots on the floor. Early detection saves thousands in structural repairs later.

Common Problems We Fix

• Your water bill jumps without increased household use.
• Warm areas appear on the concrete floor in one room.
• Low water pressure affects the whole house steadily.
• You hear running water sounds when nothing is on.
• Cracks form in walls near the foundation line.
• Moisture shows up along baseboards with no rain.
• Pressure drops only on the hot water side.
• The meter continues spinning when all taps are off.

We use listening devices and thermal cameras to locate the leak without breaking concrete unnecessarily. Once pinpointed we reroute the line above the slab or replace the damaged section with minimal disruption, then test the full system for lasting pressure and flow.
