Replaced a failed basket strainer on a double kitchen sink — the left-side strainer had started leaking underneath the cabinet. Measured up the new strainer, swapped it in, and rebuilt the drain connection beneath it.

Repaired a kitchen sink drain that had backed up, rebuilding the P-trap and drain assembly under the cabinet within the specific time window the customer needed.

Tracked down a sink issue to a leaking fitting behind the wall rather than a simple clog. Opened the wall to get access, then resealed the fitting and confirmed the connection was holding before closing things back up.

Replaced a dishwasher drain line and stop valve after the dishwasher started throwing an error code and backing up at the drain. Traced the issue back to the sink's drain plumbing and rebuilt the connection under the cabinet.

Replaced a toilet that was leaking at its base with a customer-supplied unit, picked up in advance from a local Home Depot order. Removed the old toilet, reset the wax ring and flange, and installed the new one, leaving the surrounding tile and fixtures untouched.

Installed a new gas water heater with a thermal expansion tank in a tight closet installation. Ran new copper supply lines and mounted the expansion tank above the unit, with a new gas connector run to the tank.

Serviced a pair of tankless water heaters after part of the house stopped getting hot water. Flushed both units and replaced the display panel on one, following up on a prior visit's diagnosis that had identified the flush and display as the fix but couldn't complete it on the spot. Brought both manufacturer service kits along to handle the full repair in one trip.

Diagnosed a gas water heater that wouldn't hold a pilot light after being shut off for other work in the house. The pilot lit but wouldn't stay lit, pointing to a failed thermocouple. Given the unit's age, walked through both a thermocouple and gas valve repair and a full water heater replacement so the options were clear before deciding how to proceed. Basement access on this one is tight — a narrow stairway that would take two people to get a new unit down if a full replacement is the way it goes.

Inspected the gas flex line running from the main trunk line in the utility room out to a fireplace insert, ahead of a township compliance check tied to a home sale. Turned the fireplace on and ran a full leak test on the line, checking the entire run — found no leaks. Photographed the line's routing and condition for the record, since the seller needed documentation the gas connection was sound before closing.

Exposed a section of buried gas line so a township inspector could verify burial depth, then checked every joint with a soap-bubble test to confirm there were no leaks. Replaced the pressure gauge and pressurized the line to 17 psi ahead of the scheduled inspection.

Installed a new, customer-supplied pull-down kitchen faucet in place of the old fixture, reconnecting the water supply lines beneath the sink.

Cleared a garbage disposal that had jammed after clam shells went down the drain, removing the shell fragments and vacuuming out the remaining debris to get the disposal running again.

Assessed a home without hot water in the Island Woods section of Stafford Township, measuring the space and existing connections to determine sizing and routing options for a replacement water heater.

Cleared a clogged toilet at a Brick Township home using an auger after it stopped flushing properly.

Repaired a split in the cold water line for an outdoor shower at a Seaside Heights home.
