Questions About Plumbing and Heating Around Edgewood and Albuquerque
These are the questions homeowners and property managers across the
Albuquerque metro ask us most: how pricing works, emergency calls,
septic installs, tank versus tankless, heating, and how the free
estimate works. If yours is not here, call and we will answer it.
Price depends on what is broken, how hard it is to reach and what parts it takes. A water heater in a tight closet takes longer than one sitting in a garage. We look at the job first and put the estimate in writing before any work starts. The estimate is free.
Do you take emergency calls?
Yes, we take emergency calls at any hour for burst pipes, sewer backups, water heater failures and no water. Call (505) 306-8285 and tell us what is happening and where. We will get you scheduled as fast as we can. Our emergency plumbing page covers what to shut off before we get there.
Do you work on commercial buildings as well as homes?
Yes. Roughly a quarter of what we do is commercial: small offices, shops, restaurants and rental buildings. The rest is houses, including manufactured and mobile homes. Commercial jobs run the same way, and the estimate goes in writing first.
What areas do you serve?
We are based in Edgewood and work about 70 miles around it. That takes in Albuquerque, Rio Rancho, Corrales, Bernalillo, Placitas and Los Lunas. Closer to home we work Tijeras, Cedar Crest, Sandia Park and Moriarty. If you are not sure you are in range, call (505) 306-8285 and ask.
Do you install septic systems?
Yes, we install new septic systems, replace failed ones, and repair tanks, lines and leach fields. Most new installs go in on new builds and lots out in the East Mountains. We do not pump tanks; a pumping company handles that. The New Mexico Environment Department issues the permit in most of our area, and we work that paperwork with you.
What heating work do you do?
We work on boilers, hydronic baseboard and radiant floor heat, water heaters and ductless mini splits. That means no heat calls, annual service, repairs and replacement. We do not work on forced air furnaces or central air conditioning. Mini splits heat and cool, so one unit covers both in a room or an addition.
Should I get a tank or a tankless water heater?
It depends on the house, and a tank is the simpler swap. A tankless water heater takes less space and heats water as you use it. It usually needs a bigger gas line and new venting. Albuquerque water runs moderately hard to hard, so either one wants a flush or a descale on a schedule.
Do you work with landlords and property managers?
Yes, and a lot of our steady work comes from them. We take service calls on rentals and set up preventative maintenance plans. That way drains, water heaters and boilers get checked before they fail. Tell us which property it is and what is happening, and we will get it scheduled.
