Sewer Repair
Gora Plumbing provides comprehensive sewer repair solutions, including backhoe service, line replacement, and root intrusion removal. Our technicians use advanced diagnostics to identify fractures or blockages, ensuring efficient repairs that minimize property disruption. With trenchless options available, we restore sewer functionality while maintaining structural integrity for residential and commercial properties.
Video Inspection
Our sewer line video inspections utilize high-resolution cameras to detect fractures, root intrusion, and blockages. This non-invasive method pinpoints exact problem locations, reducing unnecessary excavation and repair costs. The technology allows real-time visual assessment of underground pipes, ensuring accurate diagnostics for both residential and commercial plumbing systems.
Water Heater Installation
We install both tankless and conventional water heaters, ensuring optimal hot water delivery for homes and businesses. Our licensed technicians assess heating needs to recommend energy-efficient models that reduce long-term costs. The service includes proper venting, pressure regulation, and safety checks to guarantee reliable performance and compliance with local plumbing codes.
Drain Cleaning
Gora Plumbing offers high-pressure jet rodding and power rodding to clear stubborn drain clogs. Our equipment removes buildup from grease, debris, and tree roots, restoring proper flow in residential and commercial drainage systems. Regular maintenance prevents recurring issues while extending the lifespan of plumbing infrastructure through thorough, non-damaging cleaning methods.
Basement Waterproofing
Our basement waterproofing solutions address seepage and flood prevention through sump pump installation, ejector systems, and exterior drainage improvements. Battery backup pumps ensure functionality during power outages, while sealants protect foundation walls. These measures create dry, usable spaces while preventing water damage to structural components in residential and commercial properties.
