What is Your Diagnosis?

Doctors are asked this question daily…so are plumbers, especially when the subject is your sewage system in your Seattle area home.  If you use your sink, toilet or tub only to find water backing up into your home, you are more than likely experiencing one of these three common sewer problems.

Potentially, they are –

1.  A blocked drain

2.  Lines that have cracked or even collapsed

3.  Tree roots have invaded the sewer line

Whichever of these three scenarios has caused the problem of backed-up drains, the solution in and around Seattle is Shawn Allen.  Shawn is the owner of a plumbing company located in Snohomish and is known throughout the area as “the Snohomish plumber”.  For backed-up drains and other plumbing emergencies call Shawn at (425) 367-4744.       

Efficiency and Results…Isn’t That What it’s all About?

Running a service-based business has a lot of advantages. You can help customers in your community, offer residential or commercial services, and you can choose to specialize in a certain area of business.  For instance, plumbers can choose to specialize in sewer repairs while offering a variety of other related services.

One of the hardest tasks for a business owner is to know when to hire someone else even if only part-time for certain jobs.  Bringing on someone else means that you’ll need a new approach and you must meet certain laws and regulations.  It’s difficult to grow a business, and for some owners, they never want to move past a one-man operation.

For several decades I have discovered that staying as a basic one-man operation is right for my community.  My name is Shawn Allen.  I am known by thousands as The Plumber of Snohomish WA, but I do serve the greater Seattle area.  I am here to help with plumbing issues that you have in your home or business.  Just give me a call at (425) 367-4744.    

When Did You Build a Swimming Pool in your Front Yard?

That’s no swimming pool, that’s a built-up pool of water formed from a potential broken pipe.  The two most common sources of the leak are 1.) The main service line between the shut off valve and the water meter…and…2.) your irrigation system.  You need a professional plumber to locate the exact source.

Water comes into your home from the city’s water main, through your water meter and then travels underground through the main service line to your home’s shutoff valve.  The water must be turned off the main valve.  Then, look for a metal lid on a concrete box near the curb.  Finally, read the meter for the leak.

Let the fun begin!  Your chosen plumber will then fix the problem to your satisfaction…guaranteed.  For that last part, in Snohomish and the Seattle area always call on the services of Shawn Allen.  For decades Shawn has been known as The Snohomish Plumber.  Just look him up, then call (425) 367-4744.       

Rub a Dub Dub…Your Family in a Tub.

Let’s start with one inveterate truth…installing a tub isn’t an easy do-it-yourself project because it involves working with a large, heavy object in a small space.  If you have any misgivings (or an epiphany of common sense!) about doing it, hire a plumber who has the experience to install it and the license to hook up the fixtures.

Here are a few steps that the very best of the DIY’S would take –

1.  Push the tub into the enclosure and mark the top of the flange on the wall studs.

2.  Measure and mark the location for the top of the ledger.

3.  Use coarse drywall screws to fasten the ledger board horizontally.

Really?  There is NO WAY that you want to tackle this!  Even then, where is the guarantee that the tub will not leak?  That is why you call Shawn.  He is Shawn Allen THE Snohomish and Seattle area plumber found on the web at plumbersnohomish.com.  Call Shawn and he will have you rub-a-dub dubbing in no time.  That number is (425) 367-4744.      

Let’s See What’s Going on in There.

Since we can’t crawl inside a sewer line ourselves (who would want to) to inspect for clogs, plumbers need state-of-the-art video inspection equipment.  The plumbing camera is attached to a screen for real time visualization that can also be recorded.  Finding the root cause of the problem in a pipe or sewer system in a timely manner will greatly increase productivity.

Using a sewer camera to visualize problems will aid your plumbing pro in permanently fixing plumbing problems the first time they occur.  Knowing the specific nature of a plumbing problem will also help them better determine the most efficient way to deal with it, saving you time, effort, and money.

The man with the cam is Snohomish Plumber, Shawn Allen.  Shawn has been inspecting pipes and sewer lines around the Seattle area for decades.  He is ready to come to your home or office for expert video inspection that is causing your drains to clog.  Give Shawn a call for fast, reliable service at (425) 367-4744.
