Plumbing questions, answered for Pimmit Hills

Pimmit Hills sits in Virginia's humid subtropical region — a humid subtropical climate — long, hot, muggy summers, mild winters, heavy thunderstorms, and high year-round humidity. That's hard on a home's plumbing: high year-round humidity that sweats and corrodes copper pipe and summer heat and moisture that strain water heaters all accelerate wear on pipes, fittings, and water heaters, so the failures we see most here are corroded copper pipe and fittings in the humid air and running and leaking toilets. We spec pipe, fittings, and fixtures for local conditions, not a generic catalog spec.

We cover Southampton Forest, Olney Park, Devon Park, and Westhampton — including ZIPs 22043. If you're anywhere in Pimmit Hills, you're in our service area — call (213) 579-0947 and we'll confirm the next available window.

The call we get most in Pimmit Hills is corroded copper pipe and fittings in the humid air.

First check the basics: on a gas unit, see whether the pilot or burner is lit; on an electric unit, check the breaker and the reset button on the thermostat.

When the pipe is old galvanized steel throughout, we'll walk you through why repiping pays off long term.
