Local Encinitas Plumbing Services

ASAP is a full-service plumbing company, ready to tackle any home or commercial problem:  faucets, toilets, drains, sewers, water heaters, hidden leaks, and even gas lines and boilers.

Encinitas Drain Cleaning and Sewer Repair

As our name suggests, we’re experts in drain cleaning, including those stubborn kitchen problems that keep coming back.  That’s usually due to a build up of grease.  A drain snake only pokes a hole through that, but we can (and will) completely remove the problem.  If necessary we can bring in our high-pressure hydro-jetting equipment to leave the insides of your drain pipes in like-new condition.

Drain and toilet back-ups are often caused by problems in the main sewer line leaving your building.  Our live in-pipe video cameras show us exactly what the problem is and where it’s located.  We’ll then consult with you to decide on the best course of action for sewer line cleaning and sewer repair.  In many cases we can clear even small tree roots without digging up you yard or pavement.

Fixtures and Plumbing

Our plumbing experts are ready for any problem, large or small, concerning faucets, garbage disposals, toilets, and urinals.  We employ top-rated master plumbers who are well qualified and certified for tough problems, including pipe repair and gas line repiping.

Encinitas Leak Detection and Slab Leak Repair

Don’t ignore even small leaks.  Over time they can do a surprising amount of damage to carpet, interior finishes, and even the framework of your building.  We back up our experienced local plumbers with the latest electronic leak detection devices.  We’ll quickly determine if you have a leak hidden inside your walls or under the floor and then pinpoint it’s location so that we can get at it for repairs with an absolute minimum of damage to your building.

A leak under the concrete floor slab can gradually erode the supporting soil, leading to uneven settling that can crack the floor, walls, and even ceilings of your building.  After locating the leak, our slab leak repair experts will advise you concerning the available alternatives such as a spot repair, repiping, or pipe lining so that you can make an informed decision.

Encinitas Water Heater Repair and Replacement

Most buildings require water heater repair from time to time.  Gas-fired heaters are highly reliable, yet surprisingly complicated.  Failed thermocouples, pilot lights, burners, controllers, thermostats, and valves can leave you with no hot water.  Other problems with both electric and gas water heaters can result in having not enough hot water or even discolored or odorous hot water.  And of course various valves and fittings can develop leaks.  Our experts will go straight to the problem, with no extra costs for detours or dead ends.

If the tank itself is leaking, or the unit has reached the end of its useful life (most typically 8 to 12 years) then it’s time for a water heater replacement.  Our expert installers can typically take care of everything in a single day for a standard unit.  We also have experts in installing tankless water heaters for energy savings and hot water just seconds after you turn on the tap.  We also have master plumbers certified for work on boilers.

Experts agree that regular maintenance extends the life of any water heater, so ASAP offers an annual service that drains and flushes the tank for improved efficiency and lifetime, and includes safety and performance checks.

Encinitas Fun Facts

Modern-day Encinitas was incorporated in 1986, combining the five communities of historic Encinitas, new Encinitas, Leucadia, Cardiff-by-the-Sea, and Olivenhain.  Each has retained its own distinctive style, from beach-town eclectic to fine homes to nearly rural.  All combined, the 2010 census put the population at 59,518.

The city’s beaches make it a world-class surfing spot, and Encinitas has been home to actor Richard Dreyfuss, to tennis star Bobby Riggs, and to Tony Hawk and other famous skateboarders.

ASAP Drain Guys & Plumbing’s  in-line sewer inspection cameras can locate and identify the nature of any sewer-line backups so that we can take the best measures to correct the situation.  These cameras will also permit us to identify cracks and breaks in the lines.  Our local plumbers are then fully qualified to make drain pipe and sewer line repairs.

Water Heaters and Boilers

A boiler or domestic hot water (DHW) heater is often the most expensive component of a building’s plumbing, and deserves attention.

Slab Leak Repair Escondido

A water leak under the concrete floor slab can cause additional damage by eroding the soil under the building.  This leads to uneven settling that can cause major and expensive-to-repair cracks in the floor and walls.  Our leak detection service can pinpoint even these sorts of leaks, and depending on the exact situation we can offer one or more slab leak repair solutions.

Historic Escondido

One of the oldest San Diego County cities, Escondido has grown from fewer than 100 people to a population of some 148,738 residents (2013).  Most of the city began as a Mexican land grant, Rincon del Diablo, from Governor Manuel Micheltorena to Juan Alvarado in 1843.  A southern portion was originally part of Rancho San Bernardo.  Del Diablo was the site of the 1846 Battle of San Pasqual in the Mexican-American war.  After passing through several hands, the land ended up being owned by the Escondido Land and Town Company in 1885.  The city was incorporated in 1888.
