Plumbing Care for North Canton's Ranches, Split-Levels and Basements

Copper Plumbing That Has Done Its Time

Many North Canton homes built after the war were plumbed with copper, which was a big step up from galvanized steel. After many decades, though, copper can thin from the inside. The first sign is often a tiny pinhole leak that sprays a fine mist or leaves a green crust on the pipe. One pinhole tends to be followed by others.

We repair individual leaks and, when a house is seeing repeated failures, replace runs of pipe through our North Canton copper piping service.

Protecting a Finished Basement

Lots of homeowners here have turned basements into family rooms, offices or guest suites. That raises the stakes when water gets in. A sump pump failure, a water heater leak or a washing machine hose bursting can ruin carpet, drywall and furniture fast.

Small steps make a big difference, and our sump pump service covers the most important one.

• Test the sump pump each spring and consider a battery backup
• Replace rubber washing machine hoses with braided stainless lines
• Set the water heater on a drain pan with a line to the floor drain
• Know where the main shutoff is and make sure it turns freely
• Keep storage off the floor near mechanical equipment

Bringing Dated Bathrooms and Kitchens Up to Date

Original pink or green tile, a tub nobody uses and a single vanity: plenty of North Canton bathrooms are ready for a change. Swapping a tub for a walk-in shower, adding a second sink or moving the toilet all involve plumbing work behind the walls. Our bath and kitchen remodeling plumbing handles the drains, supply lines, shower valves and fixture setting.

While walls are open, it is a good time to replace old shutoff valves and any aging pipe in that area.

Gas Logs and Fireplace Upgrades

Wood-burning fireplaces in older homes are often converted to gas for convenience. We run the gas line, install the valve and set the logs. Learn more about gas log installation in North Canton. We also repair gas fireplaces and install gas lines for ranges and dryers.

Stopping Damage Fast

If you see water spreading across a finished floor, close the main valve right away; in most North Canton homes it is in the basement near the meter or where the line enters the foundation. If the water heater is the source, also close its cold supply valve and turn the gas control off. Lift rugs and electronics off the floor and photograph the damage.
