Hot water ran out after one shower. Sediment had taken half the tank. Flush and a new anode rod and it has been fine for two years.

Shower valves are where we spend most of our fixture time in Story City. When the temperature swings while somebody is in there, the balancing spool has usually failed, and that is a repair rather than a tear-out. Where the valve body itself is finished, we will tell you what is involved before opening the wall.
Call (833) 435-9778 and describe what is happening. We will give you an arrival window before you hang up and a flat price before anyone starts work - the same price at 2am as at 2pm.

Call (833) 435-9778Most of the kitchen drains we cable in Story City are lined with cooled grease rather than blocked by any single object. It goes down warm and sets on the pipe wall a few feet along. Once that layer is thick enough, one bowl of rice finishes the job.

Water softener install. They tested our water first rather than just selling a unit, and sized it accordingly. Fixtures have stayed clean since.

Water bill nearly doubled and I could not find anything wrong. They found a slab leak under the hallway with a listening device, cut one small square of flooring, and fixed it. I was braced for a lot worse.

Yes - a steady drip runs into real water over a year, and the same wear that causes the drip is chewing the valve seat while it continues. It is one of the cheapest repairs in a Story City home.
Usually. Most shower problems are a worn cartridge or balancing spool inside a perfectly good valve body. We try the repair first and only discuss replacement when the body itself has failed.
Absolutely. Plenty of Story City customers buy the fixture they want and have us fit it. We will tell you honestly if a particular unit is going to give trouble before it goes in.
Nearly always a clogged aerator or a partially closed shutoff at that fixture. Both are quick. If every fixture is low, the cause is elsewhere in the system and we look at that instead.
