Professional Services for Leaks, Clogs, and Heating Systems
We provide rapid leak identification utilizing pressure testing, acoustic tracing, and thermal imaging to pinpoint problems without compromising finishes. For heating, we repair furnaces and boilers to factory standards - including combustion analysis, venting verification, gas-pressure calibration, and control diagnostics - making sure systems run within code tolerances. We disable unsafe equipment, fix problems, and resume service with certified test results.
Fast Leak Detection
The fastest way to protect your property and ensure code compliance is by using rapid leak detection using calibrated instruments and tested methods. Our process starts with closing isolation valves, recording meter movement, and checking pressures. Next we employ acoustic detection to locate pressurized line leaks within slabs, walls, or buried runs, eliminating ambient noise to identify small flow signatures. Infrared scanning detects temperature patterns that suggest concealed water paths, separating supply leaks from condensation or infiltration. We validate findings with tracer gas or dye testing when required. You receive a detailed report, photos, and coordinates for accurate repairs, limiting demolition, preventing mold risk, and restoring full code compliance.
Boiler and Furnace Repair
Once leaks are identified and documented, we begin returning heat to safe working order by examining HVAC equipment to code. We initiate with comprehensive diagnostics: confirming gas levels, manifold parameters, vent draft, air intake, and safety mechanisms. We evaluate safety switches, flame monitoring devices, ignition systems, circulation pumps, and zone valves, then inspect heating cores for defects and ventilation routes for blockages. For hydronic systems, we remove air pockets, calibrate system pressure, and balance circulators. For furnaces, we calibrate fan performance and confirm secure duct sealing.
Our service includes clearing clogs, descaling heat-transfer surfaces, and replacing worn gaskets and valves using rated components. We adjust combustion parameters to achieve optimal CO/CO2 and O2 levels, ensuring proper draft function and condensate balance. We then complete compliance documentation, focus on maximizing energy efficiency, and ensure stable operational efficiency and secure system shutdown.
Safety-First Repairs and Preventive Maintenance
Taking a proactive approach to every repair as a safety-critical task ensures your plumbing and heating systems remain compliant and dependable. You get work executed to code, with verifiable documentation and test results. Our process starts with regular system checks to identify maintenance needs, leaks, combustion concerns, and venting problems prior to escalation. We conduct carbon monoxide testing on fuel-burning appliances, verify proper drafting, and ensure proper make-up air and clearance specifications. We update faulty shutoff valves, ensure proper bonding and grounding, and install seismic strapping where required. We test pressure relief valves, expansion tanks, and backflow preventers, then fine-tune thermostats and safety parameters. Drainage traps, condensate lines, and sump systems are cleared and primed to prevent cross-contamination and overflow. We finish with load testing, system labeling, and developing an action plan.
