New disposal and a dishwasher connection that the last installer had done wrong. Fixed both, and pointed out the wrong one rather than quietly leaving it.

If you can smell gas in your Altoona home, stop reading and get everyone outside, then call the gas utility and (833) 435-9778 from outdoors. Do not flip switches. Once the immediate danger is handled, we find the leak, repair it and test the whole system rather than only the section that failed.
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) 435-9778A sump pump in Altoona sits idle for months and then has one important night. That is usually also the night the power flickers. We check the float, the check valve and the discharge line, and we talk to most Altoona homeowners about a battery backup, because an unbacked pump and a storm outage is how basements flood here.

Sewer camera before we finished the basement. Clean line, no work needed, and they said so. Plenty of places would have found something.

Called about a gas smell near the water heater. They told me to get out of the house first and call the utility, then came and found it. Took it seriously, which I appreciated.

Yes, that is routine work in Altoona. We check whether your existing system has the capacity for the added load first, because adding an appliance to an already-marginal line causes problems elsewhere in the house.
Every time, without exception, and you get the result in writing. It is how we confirm the system is tight and it is what an inspector will ask for.
It comes down to run length, whether it is inside or buried, and whether the existing system needs upsizing. We measure the job at your Altoona property and give you a flat number before starting.
We quote flat, per job, before any work starts. You hear the number on the phone or at your door, you agree to it, and it does not change because the job took longer than expected. There is no hourly clock running while we diagnose.
One number, answered around the clock, with the price agreed before we start.
