Q&A

What should I expect during a plumbing inspection for my Des Moines home?

Our plumbing inspections are thorough and proactive, designed to catch small issues before they become major problems, especially important with Iowa's seasonal temperature swings. Brian, our lead plumber, leverages his troubleshooting skills to assess your pipes, fixtures, water pressure, and drainage systems. We provide a clear, honest report on any current concerns and offer practical recommendations to maintain your home's plumbing integrity, helping you avoid unexpected repairs.

Do you handle full bathroom remodels, including shower and tub installation?

Absolutely. From a simple shower or bathtub replacement to a complete bathroom overhaul, we manage the entire project. Our team handles the plumbing installation, fixture setup (including toilets, showers, and tubs), and coordinates with other skilled trades as needed. We ensure the new installations are properly integrated with your existing systems, providing a seamless upgrade that enhances both function and value for your home.

How can you help prevent roof ice dam damage common in Des Moines winters?

Ice dams are a frequent issue for Iowa roofs due to snowmelt and refreezing. Our approach focuses on proper attic insulation and ventilation to maintain a consistent roof temperature, which is key to prevention. We can inspect your current roofing and attic setup, identify areas where heat loss is contributing to the problem, and provide targeted repairs or improvements. For homes with existing damage, we offer expert repair services to fix leaks and compromised areas, restoring your roof's protection.
