Service pages and guides are written for Twin Cities housing and weather — freeze depth, basement water heaters, cast iron, clay sewers, poly-B in the west metro, lead services on older Minneapolis blocks. We update pages when code, parts, or our process changes.
Blog posts are field notes, not a substitute for a licensed plumber on a live leak. DIY steps stop at shutoffs, plungers, and meter checks. Recommendations of other trades appear only when the job is not plumbing.
