Episode 14 "We usually start out with what we call just a basic leak detection so that we can kind of get an idea of what type of leak you have and through a series of pressure tests.

Log on to - www.PersonalPlumbingOrangeCounty.com Podcast Episode Transcription: Here on the Check A Pro Radio show, we get questions all the time. One has crossed my desk this week. Why is my water bill so high? Well, because it has to do with water. I've asked a plumbing professional. He's a plumbing expert here on the Check A Pro Radio Show, Bob Muller from Personal Plumbing to join me today. Hey, Bob, how are you doing? Doing great, Joe. Thanks for having me. It's great to have you here. We hear this a lot. Why all of a sudden as my water bill shot up and before you get into the plumbing options, it's possible that your rate went up from your local supplier of water. So check your water bill to see if you're paying the same rate per gallon. That probably, isn't it though? It's probably on the consumption side. And if you haven't added another family to your home, there may be a leak. Bob. What do you think? Yeah. No, these are all uh definite possibilities. Um We usually start out with what we call just a basic leak detection so that we can kind of get an idea of what type of leak you have and through a series of pressure tests, we can usually determine pretty quickly whether it's something that's related from, uh maybe just a toilet that's running from a bad flapper or maybe it's a, your irrigation system system that's not shutting off properly. Um Or maybe it's a more significant problem. You've got water lines under your slab and it's leaking under your slab and you just don't hear it or see it, but you're getting an expensive water bill. So we have a series of ways that we, that we uh conduct this type of service starting with our basic leak detection and determining whether we need to go into what we call our advanced leak detection services. So yes, we, we can find those leaks pretty quickly that way. It's really, really important and that is a good indication. Meaning when you look at your water bill, if you've seen a big difference, then something may be up and it's, it's more than just the loss of the water. First of all, we want to conserve water. Number two, we want to conserve money. Number three, though, if you have a leak underneath your slab, you may want to conserve your house. I'm kind of joking but not really because it, it could be a catastrophe if you have a slab foundation and it's wet under there and you'd be surprised how many gallons can leak a day. We're talking a lot, you, your structure will shift and I'm not saying it's gonna be like falling off the cliffs that we see when, when, when here in California we have these problems with, with, uh, with rain and so forth and, and these, and these landslides, but you don't need it to move much because if your foundation moves the whole house can be compromised. Yes. And this is where it leads to the cracks in your...

Episode 13 "Here at personal plumbing, we offer what we call our personal plan, which is designed to not only create customer loyalty to our company, but us being able to really fully understand our customers homes because every single home is personalized to them." - Bob Muller, Plumbing Expert We get questions all the time here at Check A Pro Radio.

Log on to - www.PersonalPlumbingOrangeCounty.com Podcast Episode Transcription: We spend a lot of time in our homes. Uh, a lot of us spend eight hours in bed, which is about a third of our lives, which means we spend a lot of time in our homes and we have to make sure that everything in the house from the foundation to the studs holding it up to the roof, keeping us dry is working well, the same four year plumbing, I've asked plumbing expert Bob Muller from personal plumbing to join me here on the program today because Bob I've got a question that came in from a listener. Thanks for having me, Joe. Yes, I would, uh, love to hear this question. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. And, and so the question is, is, um, does your company or plumbing companies in general tend to offer maintenance plans like you would get with an air conditioning company or something for your car where you want to keep it maintained? Does it make sense to have your customer have a maintenance plan with you at personal plumbing to keep their plumbing system in check? Uh, yes. The answer to this question is yes. Most plumbing companies that, uh, are professional plumbing services that want to build a client, um, loyalty will definitely offer these type of programs. Um, specifically here at personal plumbing, we offer what we call our personal plan, which is designed to not only create, you know, uh, our customer loyalty to our company, but us being able to really fully understand our customers homes because every single home is personalized to them. Every single home has their own plumbing fixtures in there that, uh, once we've been able to, uh, put somebody on the type of program that we put them on, now, we'll know exactly what they have in their house. So it's important for us to be able to go in there, check those products, we register those products in our company so that when you call us to, we know what you have inside your home already. And this is where, why we call it our personal plan because that plan becomes personal to you, our customer, um, which is why we're personal plumbing. But we also like to, uh, we also like to offer that in a, in a maintenance plan where, um, we provide the discounts that we can provide because we already know what you have in your home. We know what we're gonna be going there to fix when we get there. Um, we, we do these plans so that we can come over there, check all your plumbing system, make sure that our cameras go inside your sewer make sure that your water heater is properly flushed. Um, all of the different things that maintain your plumbing system in your home. That's, uh, very important to your, to your, uh, to the, to the health of your home. For sure. And Bob, I love that process because as a homeowner, you know, if I have a 40 or 50 gallon water heater or if it's maybe not a tank but it's tankless, you know. Exactly. You probably know the serial number. Right. So, you've got everything. You're kind of like my doctor where if I call a...

Episode 12 "For our company, we do what we call our personal plan, which is a process that where we inspect all your plumbing system to make sure it's fully working." - Bob Muller, Plumbing Expert Jim Klauck, aka Check Pro Joe has asked plumbing expert, Bob Muller from Personal Plumbing to join him on the program today. The following question has come into the show studios this week - "Is It Important To Conduct A Plumbing Inspection Before Buying A Home?" As always our expert, Bob explains in simple terms why it is important to conduct that plumbing inspection.

Log on to - www.PersonalPlumbingOrangeCounty.com Podcast Episode Transcription: Buying a home is an exciting thing to do. And many of us when we buy a home, especially in the past couple of years, there's been so much competition and so forth. People have foregone inspections. So people, you know, have a, have a home inspector. Um and they also may have an inspector to inspect the swimming pool, the air conditioning system. But how about the plumbing? So this question has come up and I've asked my friend Bob Muller from personal plumbing to join me here on the program today to answer the question. Should people get a plumbing inspection before they buy their home? Hey, Bob, how are you? I'm great, Joe. Hey, thanks for having me. And yes, this is a very important question that you have brought up today. Yeah. So, you know, a couple of years ago there was a frenzy all over the country. The real estate market was super hot and some people really regret the purchase they made, they think they may have paid too much and they decided not to get an inspection on anything because they were afraid to lose the deal. That was probably a big mistake. For some people. Right. Uh, yeah, I agree. Um, never forego your home inspection. You could, uh, be talking about not only thousands of dollars but hundreds of thousands of dollars because if, uh, it turns out that, that you have a failed plumbing system, you may not ever be able to sell that house for, you know, what it, what its value is and you're just gonna take a loss on that. So, um, yes, it's very important and we, you know, mo most people get your basic general home inspection from a, from a licensed home inspector. And they're just gonna do a general overview overlook. They're not gonna really um get into the total uh process of, of fully inspecting the plumbing. They usually just say refer to a licensed plumber on there and, and that's kind of the way they get out of uh really doing a complete home inspection. Um They just do a visual inspection and, and for our company, we do uh what we call our personal plan, which is a process that where we uh we inspect all your plumbing system to make sure it's fully working. Um We put cameras inside your sewer to make sure that uh you don't have any failed uh sewer lines. Um We check for what type of plumbing you have inside your home, whether it's a copper piping, whether it's polybutylene or C PV C. But yes, it is important to make sure that you know the condition of your plumbing and that you've had it inspected. I totally agree. And that would go for any major system in your home more than the home inspector. You may want to drill down a bit. Don't be afraid to spend an extra $500 or $1,000 on specific inspections, the spa, the pool, the roof, all of that. Yes. And, and of course, you can't see inside the, the, uh you know, your sewer lines without putting a camera inside there. So this is very important to, you know, have a uh a license plumber come in and, and put that camera inside there. Get a very...
