Diagnosed a kitchen faucet leak caused by a faulty cartridge. Customer declined repair to buy a new faucet. Tested water hardness (8 gpg) and provided a quote for a whole-home water filtration system to protect residential plumbing.

Investigated a gas leak using a sniffer, locating a severe leak at the gas valve and inducer motor connection due to damaged seals. Reattached the condensate drain and sourced the necessary replacement parts for the water heater repair.

Completed furnace HVAC maintenance. Cleaned dirty inducer impeller and burner compartment to restore a proper blue flame. Checked blower capacitor and verified a 55-degree temperature rise for safe, efficient heating performance.

Cleared a clogged urinal by removing the strainer and augering the line to break up a heavy calcium buildup. Flushed the fixture multiple times to ensure proper flow and successful drain cleaning.

Resolved a blocked catch basin outlet by rodding the line to the creek with a 3/4" cable. Ran the line multiple times to complete the clogged drain repair. A pipe offset prevented a camera inspection, but flow is fully restored.

Diagnosed geothermal AC short-cycling and water leak. Found renovation screws punctured the PVC waterline coupling flush against the concrete slab, causing zero water pressure. Photographed the leaking pipes to prepare a repair quote.

Diagnosed a cracked toilet spraying water. Ordered a replacement toilet, Sloan valve vacuum breaker, wax ring, and bolts for installation. Referred a slow-draining urinal for professional drain cleaning.

Installed a 1/3 HP backup sump pump in the crawl space with a sloped discharge line. Capped the old line and connected the main pump directly to the underground discharge pipe, removing a restrictive barbed tee to prevent water intrusion.

Flushed attic AC condensate line and adjusted wet switch to prevent pan overflow. Diagnosed non-cooling mini-split with overheat code due to suspected low refrigerant; recommended a nitrogen pressure test and leak search.

Performed heating and cooling service and HVAC maintenance. Repaired a refrigerant leak at the liquid service port by replacing the Schrader core. Cleaned components and advised on rodent prevention to protect the electrical inverter.

Resolved AC not cooling by diagnosing a tripped wet switch in the attic air handler. Dried the safety switch, which remained damp due to high humidity, to restore power and system operation.

Replaced 20x25x5 filter, cleaned outdoor AC coil, and tested airflow. Flushed the water heater and inspected plumbing valves. Tested the sump pump and quoted a backup sump pump system to protect the basement from future flooding.

Jetted storm catch basin and located driveway blockage. Rodded pipe from creek discharge to clear heavy root intrusion. Confirmed corrugated pipe is collapsed and deteriorated into mud under the driveway, preventing further drainage.

Jetted and inspected storm drains and downspouts. Confirmed the 6-inch line is flowing. Attempted drain cleaning on a 10-inch line, but it remains obstructed by heavy root infiltration despite rodding and jetting attempts.

Installed a new State 40-gallon gas water heater, expansion tank, copper piping, and gas fittings. Tested all connections with a gas detector to ensure zero leaks and verified proper system operation.

Inspected furnace for ignition issues. Demonstrated safety switch and flame sensor locations to homeowner. Tested heating system to confirm operational status. Offered furnace maintenance, which was declined.
