PLUMBING MAINTENANCE
About Company
18 Years of Experience
My name is Jared Dietrick and I have been involved in the plumbing industry for over 18 years, 11 of which as a Master Plumber. I have just about seen and done it all; from new construction, to emergency repairs, to bathroom remodels, to installing efficient tankless water heaters. After working for another plumbing company for 10 years, I decided to take a leap of faith and start my own company in 2016. In doing so, I have been able to take care of my clients’ needs while simultaneously running the company in a way that aligns with my values.
I grew up in Gettysburg, PA and have been serving this community as well as the surrounding areas. I love helping my clients take care of their property and enjoy bringing their plumbing into the 21st century.

What We Do
Our Services
New Construction
We have a strong background in residential new construction plumbing, with continued education to stay current with the latest codes and modern improvements. We work neatly, professionally, and we are unrivaled in our understanding of proper installation.
Water Heaters
Water heaters have had so many improvements and changes over the past few years that it can be hard to know what equipment is best suited for your needs. We work with you for quick results while still giving you what you want and need. Many companies take the easy route with a similar replacement without guiding you in your long term best interest.
Hydronic Heating
Radiant heat is an often overlooked system in new homes today, but its comfort is unrivaled. Older homes with radiators and baseboard heat can feel outdated, and there are many cosmetic and comfort improvements that can additionally be added or replaced. We would love to work with you on your specific needs.
Boiler Replacement
Boilers have improved in ways most people have yet to realize. The tax rebates available, massive efficiency improvements, and improved comfort, have made boiler upgrades a positive investment. A new boiler system can feel like a daunting task, but the time to do it is before a heating season. We would love to walk you through your options.
Water Treatment and Conditioning
Water treatment and conditioning has become a huge market, and we would be happy to assist you with your specific needs. We can eliminate the need for expensive salesmen, while installing state of the art systems to provide you with cleaner, safer water.

Plumbing FAQs
Plumbing FAQs
Here are some FAQs and answers to ease your mind
How often should I have my plumbing system inspected?
It’s advisable to have a professional inspect your plumbing system at least once every two years to catch any potential issues early.
What can I do to prevent plumbing problems?
Regular maintenance includes checking for leaks, cleaning drains, avoiding flushing non-degradable items, and insulating pipes to prevent freezing.
What should I do if I have a plumbing emergency?
Turn off the main water supply to prevent further damage, contact a professional plumber immediately, and make temporary fixes like using towels to absorb leaks.
Low water pressure can be caused by clogs in pipes, a problem with the pressure regulator, or issues with the municipal supply. A plumber can diagnose and address the issue.
How can I prevent my pipes from freezing in the winter?
Insulate pipes in unheated areas, keep the home’s temperature consistent, and allow faucets to drip slightly to prevent freezing.
What should I avoid putting down the kitchen sink?
Avoid grease, coffee grounds, and fibrous foods like celery, which can clog drains and lead to plumbing issues.
How can I clear a clogged drain?
You can use a plunger or a plumber’s snake to clear clogs. For persistent issues, a chemical drain cleaner or professional help may be needed.
Is it safe to use chemical drain cleaners?
Chemical drain cleaners can be harsh and potentially damaging to pipes. They should be used cautiously, and it’s often better to use mechanical methods or call a plumber.
Why is my toilet constantly running?
A running toilet can be caused by a faulty flapper, a problem with the fill valve, or an improperly adjusted float. Replacing or adjusting these components usually resolves the issue.
What should I do if my toilet is clogged?
Try using a plunger first. If that doesn’t work, a toilet auger can be used. Avoid flushing more while it’s clogged, as it could cause an overflow.
How often should I flush my water heater?
Flushing your water heater once a year helps remove sediment build-up and prolong its lifespan.
Why is my water heater not producing hot water?
⦁ Possible causes include a faulty heating element, a tripped circuit breaker, or an issue with the thermostat. Check these components or call a professional for diagnosis.
What is the average lifespan of a water heater?
The average lifespan is around 8 to 12 years, depending on the type and maintenance. Regular maintenance can extend its life.
What are the signs of a leaky pipe?
Signs include water stains on walls or ceilings, musty odors, and increased water bills. Early detection can prevent major damage.
How can I locate a hidden leak in my pipes?
Look for signs like water stains, damp areas, or increased water bills. Professional leak detection tools may be needed for precise location.
Can I fix a plumbing issue myself?
Simple issues like unclogging a drain or tightening a loose faucet can often be handled yourself. For more complex problems, it’s best to consult a professional plumber.
What is the best way to clean a showerhead?
Soak it in a solution of equal parts vinegar and water to remove mineral deposits. Scrub any remaining debris with a brush.
