Water heaters reaching replacement age
Tanks from the post-2000 building wave start leaking, rumbling or running short on hot water.
Low pressure in older homes
Galvanized supply pipe in pre-1960 houses corrodes from the inside and narrows the line.
Slow kitchen and main drains
Grease and buildup in older drain lines lead to recurring clogs.
Hidden supply line leaks
Drips at fittings and valves can stain ceilings or floors before the source shows.
The Town of Berlin draws from three wells about 125 feet deep in the Pocomoke aquifer. The 2024 report showed nitrate up to 5 ppm, under the 10 ppm limit, and a lead 90th percentile of 4.6 ppb.
If the tank is leaking, rumbling or running out of hot water sooner than it used to, it is worth a check. Age, the condition of the anode rod and any leaks around the base help decide between a repair and a replacement.
Yes. We work carefully in older houses and explain the options before any work starts. Call and describe what you are seeing.
