Galen's unique plumbing challenges

About 124 nights a year below freezing, when uninsulated crawlspace lines give out

The oldest blocks in town run plumbing decades older than the newer builds toward Butler

First frost typically lands around November 3

Seasonal timing

Frost typically arrives around Nov 3, which is the point where a slow drip at a threaded fitting stops being a small problem.

Common questions

How much does a plumber cost?

It depends on the job and how bad the problem is. That is why the first step is a phone call. Describe the problem and get your free estimate on the phone, with upfront pricing.

Will I talk to a real person?

Yes, you will.

Do I need to fill out a form?

No forms and no waiting on emailed quotes. One phone call is all it takes.

Can I get help at night or on a weekend?

We have plumbers ready to help families in the community 24/7, but moment-to-moment availability depends on demand. Call to find out how soon we can service your home.

Should I wait to call?

You already know that plumbing problems don't go away on their own. And waiting just increases the risks to your house. Plumbers see this hesitation all the time. Instead of regretting not calling earlier, just make that 2-minute call now and get your free estimate.

People also ask

My water pressure has dropped over the years. Why?

In an older house the usual answer is that the inside of a galvanized supply line has been narrowing with scale, so the pipe carries less water than it did when it was new. Pressure that falls further when a second fixture runs points the same direction. A pressure test at the hose bib gives a plumber a starting number.

Can copper and galvanized pipe be joined directly?

Not without a dielectric fitting between them. Where the two metals touch directly, corrosion concentrates right at that joint and the connection fails long before either pipe does. Older houses often have exactly this joint hidden behind a wall or under a cabinet.

How do I tell whether my supply pipe is galvanized, copper or plastic?

Look at the line where it comes out of the floor or wall near the water heater. Copper is reddish and smooth, galvanized steel is gray with threaded fittings, and PEX is flexible plastic in white, red or blue. A plumber can confirm it and tell you what the rest of the house likely has.

Do plumbers who work in Galen also cover Butler?

Often, yes. Calls from here are typically matched with pros who also cover Butler and Lyons, since the driving distance is short and the housing runs to similar ages and pipe materials.
