Why “Best in the Panhandle” Matters
Winning a regional award like “Best in the Panhandle” carries more weight than you might think. It highlights:
- Local excellence: You’re not just rated among plumbing companies statewide — but among those who serve your area.
- Community trust: It reflects the feedback, votes, and experiences of people who live and work around us.
- Quality consistency: To earn this, a business must deliver reliably — not just once, but repeatedly over time.
- Motivation to improve: Awards help keep us striving for better techniques, tools, and customer service.
So to everyone who voted, shared, called us, referred us, or wrote a review — thank you from the bottom of our plumbing toolbox. This award motivates us to be even better.
Practical Plumbing Tips (From Your Award-Winning Team)
Winning doesn’t mean we rest on laurels — it means we double down on doing the right things. Here are 5 practical plumbing tips to help you avoid emergencies, reduce water waste, and keep your home’s plumbing healthy:
1. Watch What You Flush & Pour
Never flush:
- Wipes (even “flushable” ones)
- Grease or cooking oil
- Cooking solids (coffee grounds, egg shells)
Use a drain strainer in sinks and showers to catch hair and debris. Regularly clean them out to prevent clogs.
2. Maintain Water Heater Health
Drain and flush your water heater annually (or twice, in hard water areas) to remove sediment buildup.
Check the temperature-pressure relief (T&P) valve periodically.
Set your thermostat between 120–125°F — hot enough for comfort, cool enough to prevent scalding.
3. Insulate Vulnerable Plumbing in Winter
Even in mild winters, exposed pipes (especially in crawlspaces, attics, or near exterior walls) can suffer from cold snaps. Use pipe insulation or heat tape to protect them.
4. Test Your Shutoff Valves
Over time, valves get stiff or corroded. Turn them off and on a couple of times each year to ensure you can shut off water quickly during an emergency (leak, repair, etc.).
5. Look for Early Signs
Pay attention to:
- Dripping faucets or slow drains
- Discolored water
- Water spots or mold near plumbing fixtures
- Sudden increases in your water bill
Catching issues early can be far less expensive than a full-scale repair or replacement later.

Because you chose us as Best in the Panhandle, you can expect:
- Even more accountability and responsiveness
