Five kinds of work on the van
Nearly every call lands in one of five trades, and each one has its own kit on the truck.
- Drains and sewers: hand augers, a drum machine with cutting heads, a jetter for grease and a push camera for laterals.
- Water heaters: tank swaps, relief valve and anode work, tankless descaling with a pump and vinegar flush.
- Basements: sump crocks and pumps, battery backups, backwater valves cut into the main drain.
- Pipes and leaks: copper sweating, PEX crimping, Poly-B removal, burst and frozen line repair.
- Fixtures: toilets reset on new wax, faucet cartridges, shower valves, kitchen sinks and basement rough-ins.
