  • Slab Leak Repair

    • It can be challenging to determine if you have a water leak under slab because you cannot see what's going on underneath your home's foundation. However, there are a few common signs of a slab leak that can help decide if it's time to contact a professional. These include:

      • Cracked floors or walls
      • Unusually high water bills
      • Hear running water
      • Pipes making a humming noise
      • Mold and mildew growth
      • Warm or damp floors

      To accurately detect and locate a slab leak, you'd have to hire a professional plumber for slab leak detection services. At Hull Plumbing, we have the proper training, equipment, and knowledge to quickly and accurately locate a slab leak and recommend the best repair method.

    • Slab leaks can occur for many reasons. One common cause of slab leaks is abrasion. Naturally, pipes tend to contract and expand as water moves through them. However, this contraction and expansion can cause your pipes to rub against other pipes, concrete, or gravel until they wear out.

      Another common cause of slab leaks is corrosion. For instance, if you have copper pipes running under your slab, the minerals in the water can cause them to corrode over time. Ultimately, corrosion will result in holes and cracks that will allow water to escape through the slab.

    • We use professional-grade scanning and identification equipment to find a slab leak without excavation. Depending on the location, we dig a hole to access the leaking pipe and replace it with a new one.
    • Most slab leak repair projects take one to three days to complete.
    • If you're searching for "slab leak repair near me," end your search with Hull Plumbing. We offer professional slab leak repair services at an affordable price. We show up on time with fully stocked trucks to ensure we complete the repairs quickly. While working on your property, we strive to reduce how much we impact you and your property and clean up when done.

  • Commercial Plumbing

    • Some of the common plumbing issues you can encounter include:

      • Clogged toilets and drains
      • Leaky faucets
      • Broken fixtures
      • Running toilets
      • Broken septic tanks
      • Damaged pipes
    • Although not all emergency plumbing situations can be avoided through preventative maintenance, it's best to clean your drains at least once a month.
    • You should avoid chemical drain cleaners at all costs. Although chemical cleaning might seem effective at eliminating clogs, it may cause more harm to your pipes.
    • We offer commercial hydro jetting here at Hull Plumbing because this is an excellent technique to remove significant drain obstructions while preventing water backflow and other serious issues.
    • It depends on various factors, including the age of your plumbing and whether you have experienced a plumbing disaster. We recommend getting an inspection at least once per year.
    • The price varies depending on several factors, including the cause of the clog, its location, and the severity of the problem causing the obstruction. Our plumbing company will give you an accurate estimate beforehand so you can know what to expect.

  • Water Heaters

    • For most people, the ideal temperature setting is about 120 degrees Fahrenheit.

    • Several signs can clue you into a water heater replacement, including:

      • Insufficient hot water
      • Uneven water temperatures
      • Discolored water
      • Leaks around the water heater
    • You can prolong the life of your unit with routine water heater maintenance.
    • Water heaters come in different sizes. At Hull Plumbing, we’ll help you choose the suitable unit for your needs.
    • Investing in low-flow shower heads and routine maintenance can help conserve the heated water.

  • Water Heater Repair

    • There's no type of water heater that's better than the other. Nonetheless, both traditional and tankless water heaters have different benefits. Our team will help you determine which unit best suits your needs.
    • Your water heater should have a blue flame with yellow tips. An orange flame could mean inadequate burning, which can cause your unit to operate inefficiently or release carbon monoxide into your property.
    • Traditional water heaters usually wear out after 10-15 years, while tankless models need a replacement at around 20 years.
    • Regular water heater maintenance will help extend the lifespan of your system.
    • It's best to flush your water heater at least once every year.
