Our internet and phones are down at the office. We are unsure when Comcast will be up & running again in our area, (hopefully before 12:30 pm tomorrow as their recording is stating) but our crews are out working!

Replaced 3 WX-252s from 1983 with 3 brand new WX-255s and replaced the tank plumbing with new 1-1/4 inch copper.

We are still open and fielding calls at this time. We are trying to troubleshoot problems over the phone and focus on emergencies (no water, leaky tanks, broken waterlines). We are taking every precaution to keep our family safe and healthy including hand washing, sanitizing, gloves, masks and keeping distances. Please help us keep our family healthy so we can help keep your family healthy!
