St. Albert is the second-largest urban area in the Edmonton metropolitan region. Property owners of such an established city should be able to access all the same conveniences as any other major urban centre, and that includes professional plumbers. The community’s highest period of historic growth occurred from 1971 to 1990, which means many buildings in town are at least 30 years old and probably haven’t received sufficient plumbing service. Many of those local residential and commercial properties within city limits are rapidly approaching a danger zone for plumbing issues that will require preventative maintenance and repair services from a professional St. Albert plumber at a trusted Edmonton plumbing company.

Having a dependable St. Albert plumber at all times will save you a lot of trouble because you have someone you can rely on for any unforeseen plumbing emergencies. If you live or operate a business in an older building, you're more at risk for sewer and drainage issues. Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Edmonton is the best option when you need qualified plumbers. St. Albert property owners can count on annual plumbing inspections and expert drain cleaning services to keep their pipework in working order. We are dedicated to making your experience positive no matter the circumstances, with rapid results, guaranteed workmanship and parts, and reliable service. Both homeowners and business owners have experienced a plumbing problem that requires a reputable plumber.

Reliable Home Plumbing Services by Our St. Albert Plumbers

You spend more time in your home than anywhere else, so naturally, your residence is going to be affected by wear and tear over time. An aging pipe or plumbing fixture is a common culprit for creating challenges; therefore, routine maintenance will best protect your water and sewer lines from potential failures. Besides natural occurrences like tree roots or soil shifting, there is a list of preventative maintenance that homeowners can consider with the assistance of their certified St. Albert plumbers.

Some of the popular services for residential plumbing St. Albert residents can contact us for include:

Drain Cleaning Services

Your sewer line and household waste lines are responsible for removing wastewater from your home, but over time, those lines collect mineral deposits and other debris that will eventually create stubborn blockages. When you experience slow drains, foul odours, and frequent backups, you will know something is lurking deeper down the drains. You might scrub your sink openings with vinegar and baking soda paste or clear your P-trap, but you can only go so far down that drain with a snake or auger.

Untreated drain clogs will compromise your pipes’ functions and lead to major complications, such as sewer backups and other damage. Household plungers and drain snakes will only provide temporary relief for your pipes. That’s why getting routine drain cleaning services from our St. Albert plumbers is crucial for your home’s plumbing maintenance. Our cleaning solutions include the advanced HydroScrub® Jetting device—a high-pressure water system that blasts away deep-sitting blockages, leaving no trace behind in your now-clear drains.

Common Causes for Clogged Drains

Are you experiencing slow draining in your tub or sink? Clogged drains aren’t just a nuisance—they could escalate into bigger problems and affect other fixtures sharing the same drain line. When clogs return, it’s likely that there is an underlying issue in your drainage system.

The most common culprits for clogged drain lines our St. Albert plumbers encounter include:

  • Hair
  • Soap residue
  • Wet wipes
  • Paper towels
  • Tissues
  • Dental floss
  • Kitchen grease

Additionally, some severe underlying issues that cause clogged drains often involve cracked or burst pipes, as well as tree root intrusion, especially for sewer drain lines.

When you hire a St. Albert plumber for a routine drain cleaning service, they will always inspect your pipes’ condition to ensure they are in healthy condition for years to come. However, if they are in bad shape, it may be necessary to complete repairs or even a replacement after the cleaning.

St. Albert Plumber’s Plumbing Repair Services

You may not always think about how many fixtures you rely on during your daily routine—until one of them fails. Kitchen plumbing issues are pretty common, from inoperable garburators to clogged sinks or dishwasher drains. Before anything gets worse, you should call your experienced plumber. St. Albert homeowners will get peace of mind knowing that we are equipped for dependable inspections, repairs and parts replacements for your home plumbing repairs. We guarantee to get it done right.

Pipe Repair

This is a vast realm that would normally require one to write a book about, from leaky pipe joints to slab leaks and burst pipes. Minor issues handled by our St. Albert plumbers involve clearing your pipes from clogs, whereas major issues like a sewer line collapse require trenchless repair methods.

Slab Leaks

Your home is built on a concrete slab underneath which you have plumbing lines installed during construction. Slab leaks are a type of plumbing leak our St. Albert plumbers deal with that occurs primarily during soil shifting or home settling when the corners of your foundation are settling into place. While that’s a natural occurrence and your house is designed to settle, it can still happen that your lines get damaged during the process. By hiring a certified plumber, St. Albert homeowners will know whether you’ve received a poor installation service from your construction company or if the situation is natural.

Frozen Pipes

Uninsulated pipes located against basement walls, in your garage or in other areas can freeze and burst. Suppose you’re experiencing low water pressure in the winter; do not force it; instead, check if you have a frozen pipe in an unheated area. Perhaps you didn’t drain your outdoor hose bib, and the remaining water froze and expanded. If you have no means to help you thaw the frozen pipes, contact your St. Albert plumber. St. Albert homeowners who have hair dryers or space heaters can use these methods to try and thaw their frozen pipes in the meantime.

Corrosion

Metal pipes in old homes are susceptible to corrosion. Unfortunately, those older lines will only deteriorate further, making replacement inevitable. Cast iron pipes, once extremely effective and efficient, are porous and prone to clogs if you don’t regularly maintain them. Your St. Albert plumber does not recommend using corrosive chemical drain cleaners as that would accelerate the deterioration process. If you have an issue with a clog, no matter the condition of your plumbing system, it’s best to schedule service with our St. Albert plumbers.

Water Heater Repair

Were you startled by cold water in the shower one morning? There are many reasons why that might happen. If your pilot light ever goes out, it could be because of a faulty, old thermocouple that shut off the gas supply. A hot water tank also collects lots of sediment over time that must be cleaned out and flushed. Other problems include the unit being too small to provide adequate hot water for your home or just too old to continue working efficiently. Drain valves corrode over time and clog. When they leak, your floor could suffer from water damage.

Whether you have a tank-based unit or a tankless water heater, hot water heaters require regular maintenance services to remain efficient as they age. This is a job best left to your expert plumber. St. Albert homeowners who rely on a licensed plumber for routine maintenance will always have the support they need to keep their water heaters working and manage their water bills. A St. Albert plumber will also let you know when it might be time to upgrade to a newer unit to better manage your hot water reserves.
