Many homeowners in Southern Maine don’t realize that warm weather is actually ideal for scheduling inspections, tune-ups, and upgrades.

Why Summer Is the Best Time for Plumbing & Heating Service
✅ Avoid the Fall and Winter RushOnce cooler weather hits, plumbers and heating technicians get busier. Scheduling your service in summer ensures you’re ready before the cold arrives.
✅ Ideal Conditions for Repairs & UpgradesWarm, dry weather makes it easier to work on outdoor plumbing, water heaters, and heating systems without the risk of freezing temperatures or snow delays.
✅ Spot Issues Before They Get WorseLeaks, worn-out parts, or inefficiencies in your heating system can worsen if left unchecked. Summer is the perfect opportunity to catch and fix them early.
Our Top Summer Plumbing & Heating Tips
1. Check for Leaks & Drips
Inspect sinks, toilets, and outdoor spigots for leaks. Even small drips can waste water and cause damage over time.
2. Service Your Water Heater
We recommend flushing your water heater to remove sediment buildup, which can reduce efficiency and shorten its lifespan. Considering an upgrade? Ask us about energy-efficient tankless water heaters.
3. Inspect Your Heating System
It may seem odd to think about heating in July, but now is the time to schedule a heating system tune-up. We’ll make sure it’s ready for when temperatures drop.
4. Upgrade Your Bathroom or Kitchen
