Hoschton, GA

Client called us out for pressure issues in the home. I preformed diagnostics and found a significant pressure drop and a leaking thermal expansion valve by cutting it out and capping that line. I also replaced the water pressure regulator and installed an expansion tank in unfinished room in basement right past the PRV. Modified exposed piping in order to install tank. There was an emergency shut off valve in the main level bathroom that the homeowner expressed concern about. Replaced with a new quarter turn service stop with a new braided supply line. Lastly, there was a duel shower in master bathroom that needed a new pressure balance cartridge replaced. Installed a new Moen posi-temp cartridge. After work was completed slowing pressurized the home the purge all air from the plumbing system. Once purge was complete powered up the tankless water heater and checked for leaks. All work is completed and functioning properly with no active leaks. Thank you for choosing Keep Smiling

Customer needs a new disposal and kitchen faucet. Issues started when a piece of metal fell into disposal and when it was turned on it shot the metal as a projectile through the housing of disposal leaving a large hole in the side of disposal. Water poured out of that hole and ruined the electronics to the touch less sensor kitchen faucet that sat on floor of cabinet. Faucet would not work anymore after those components got wet. Customer purchased a new disposal and faucet. Disposal is larger 3/4 hp and old one already sits against the 2 inch drain tee. I informed customer I will need to cut just below tee so I can shift it a bit and then glue coupling on. Customer approved repairs and I removed faucet and disposal. I installed new customer supplied 1 piece kohler faucet and reconnected the built in supply lines to existing quarter turn valves. I removed tee and shifted a few degrees to the left so new disposal fits. Old disposal flange was set with silicone so I had to scrape away old

Upon arrival, customer stated that her toilet was backing up and she heard gurgling coming from the toilet and after she was done with her shower, she saw sewer water come up in her shower. I told the customer that I would need to take out the toilet and run a sewer machine to clear the blockage. We did some negotiation and I also called the manager Scott to agree on a price I ended up agreeing on $300 since she said that another company did it for 216 she also put them on the phone and verified that price. Upon taking out the toilet and running my snake and then afterwords running my sewer camera I ran into a soft tissue blockage and I was able to push it with my camera. I showed pictures to the customer and told her to be easy with the toilet paper. I flushed the toilet a couple times to make sure. While inspecting the sewer line with the camera, I seen that there was joints that weren’t fully glued on. And is probably why the toilet paper kept on getting clogged up. There is no furt

Came out to the Ojeikere residence to determine why the furnace was turning the switch off basically by itself upon diagnostic discovered there was a crack in the switch that made the wires come loose so the tech replaced the switch and restored power.(1 year warranty.)

At today’s visit, I installed four receptacles in the basement for the golfing simulator setup. Two outlets were installed into the wall for the all mounted TV’s. Two outlets were installed into the ceiling as well. These four receptacles were wired into the preexisting entertainment room circuit. All parts supplied and installed come with a 1 year warranty from Keep Smiling Co.

At today’s service, I installed a 50A breaker and circuit for a plug in car charger. The wiring installed is a 6/3 romex cable. The receptacle installed is a Nema 14-50R receptacle. Voltage was tested at the receptacle upon completion and it tested to 236.5. All parts supplied and installed come with a 1 year warranty. Note: I informed Mr. Ferguson that the charging output power max amps is 40amps on a 50amp circuit due to the car charger being a continuous load. Should the charger charge at a rate set higher the 40A, it could lead to potential melting/burning at the plug. This is why it is imperative that in the app, the charger be set at 40A max output power or 50A input power to the charger.

At todays visit, Mr. Ryan has just recently purchased a Tesla Model 3 and is looking to have a level two car charger installed. He has already purchased the car charger. I inspected the charger and observed that it takes a 40A circuit for the specific charger. I provided two estimates to Mr. Ryan in regards to installation. The first estimate would consist of installing the 240v 40A circuit and installing a Nema 14-50r receptacle directly beneath the electrical panel. The second estimate consists of installing the 240v 40A circuit to the other side of the garage which is approximately 45-50Ft of circuit length. This option would require the cutting of drywall in order to perform. Mr. Ryan did not wish to proceed with the installation today as he is looking to get an additional quote from a Tesla Certified company and that he will reach back out with his decision. The estimates have been emailed over to Mr. Ryan.

Upon arrival customer claimed to have a toilet that was very hard to flush. This toilet was in her daughter’s room. After inspecting it and trying to flush it, the flush valve seemed to be getting stuck tight when the water gets full in the tank. I asked if this was the original toilet to the house. She said it was. I then brought up 2 separate estimates. She chose the one to replace because she did not want that toilet to give her anymore issues in the future. We talked about the type of toilet I will put in and at the end we agreed for an American standard toilet she saw online. After installation I checked for leaks and no leaks were seen. Thank you for choosing keep smiling plumbing !!!!!

Upon arrival customer stated that he has a small leak in the basement and it has been dripping for a while but he couldn’t tell where it was coming from upon my inspection I found the leak to be coming from a cpvc 90° fitting on the high pressure side of the main water line before the pressure regulator in the basement. After diagnosing the issue I asked the customer if I could take a pressure test on the home in order to check a couple safety features of the plumbing system and he said that would be fine I asked him where his water heater was and he took me to it. I took a pressure test off the water heater and found the water pressure to be in between 80-85 which is higher than what the fixtures in the home are rated for. I also noticed that the thermal expansion tank was full of water and only being held up by cpvc pipe. I explained to the customer that the thermal expansion tank should not be completely full of water and therefore the expansion tank has unfortunately failed. I also

Upon arrival, customer stated that they had high pressure I checked the back hose bibs and I was getting a reading of 80 and it was spiking up indicating that the pressure reducing valve has failed the pressure reducing valve was in the garage and so was the water heater pan looking at the water heater they had no expansion tank. The combination of these two things missing and filling made the pressure spike up I gave the customer a couple options to replace her water heaters well it was just her that’s living in the house so she went with a 50 gallon electric water heater she did downsize but since she is the only one living here a 50 gallon will do. I also put a ball valve instead of a gate valve on the main shut off for the house I also went back with a 25 AUB Wats pressure reducing valve. Upon finishing the water heater and the pressure reducing valve, I checked for any leaks customer also had two toilets you wanted me to look at I seen that one toilet fill valve was not shutting

Pull and reset toilet with new wax ring. 90 day warranty on wax ring. Upon arrival, customer stated that basement bath toilet was not flushing. They attempted to use plunger but was unsuccessful. Also found water around base of toilet due to plunging toilet. After further inspection, was able to determine that the whole bath was not draining properly, when tub was used, toilet would gurgle. Found sewer ejector pump and attempted to bypass float but pump would not kick on. Water was staring to leak from pump lid. Ended finding GFCI outlet had tripped. Reset GFCI and pumped kicked on right away. Customer stated that in previous week they had electrical work done in home which could have caused GFCI outlet to trip. Flushed toilet multiple times and had water running in sink and tub to test ejector pump and determined that pump was functioning properly. Tested pump 5 times.

At todays visit Mr. Stu is looking to have multiple outlets added in various locations through the house. I provided an estimate for the work for each individual room the work would be performed in. I have emailed the estimates over to the email on file.

Customer has new kitchen faucet and needs installed,installed customer supplied kitchen faucet.

Upon arrival, I was greeted by Mr. and Mrs. Green. They scheduled an appointment with Keep Smiling because their basement shower has been running. The shower is a stand in style with a single handle Delta valve. I let them know that the typical issue is the cartridge gaining some type of defect. Replacing that usually resolves the issue. I added that on some occasions the valve itself can be the culprit. The water pressure was not exceedingly high at this time, but it would need to be re-inspected after the issue is resolved. The thermal expansion tank was healthy. I provided the price for replacing the cartridge. They agreed to the estimate, allowing me to move forward. I turned the water off to the home and quickly swapped out the Delta cartridge. I pressurized the system and watched to ensure that the new cartridge was operating properly. Upon re-inspecting the water pressure, I confirmed that it is within the appropriate PSI range. Mr. and Mrs. Green do not believe there are any o

Dug up at meter to diagnose leak on irrigation system. Recommended irrigation company.

Teddy has explained to me he is interested in getting ev charger and ev vehicle soon. We went over different locations, and options. Option one (from meter)would be from the meter going left into a disconnect the proceeding onto the charger location. This will be done in conduit on the exterior wall. In this option notify us with at least three business days in advance to locate a few specific parts that will be needed. Option two (from panel) we pull power from the panel and install in any desired location of the garage. In conduit or behind drywall. (We don’t repair drywall) Option three is to install the car charger anywhere left of the panel within 5ft.

Upon arrival customer stated that she had a weird smell coming from her toilet I informed her that could just be a wax you offered her a price to change it out while looking at the toilet I asked her if she liked her house on porn better options for toilets. Since that was just a builder great toilet. Then she told me how she had problems with her drain line they had to break a concrete in our house to fix it and the toilet was removed and ever since she just had a weird smell coming from there I gave her an option for a better Kohler toilet. She agreed to my estimate to get a new toilet. Taking out the old toilet, inspecting the flange The flange was not cracked, and in good condition I installed a new Kohler, toilet, tested for leaks and caulk the bottom of the toilet. I showed the customer her new toilet she was very happy. I also did a water heater flush for her since she had one of her friends told her that she needs to keep maintenance on it.
