One of the elements of an emergency that customers can often take for granted is the ability for the plumber to find your location. If you call a company that is not familiar with the layout of your city, then that can create an agonizingly long wait for help to arrive.
We do not make you wait. We are very familiar with your area, and we guarantee that we will have a certified plumber at your home quickly. With us, you will not be getting a phone call from a lost plumber asking you for directions while the damage to your home gets worse. We make it our business to know where you are, and we pride ourselves on getting to you as quickly as possible.
A plumbing emergency does not mean a quick fix that will need more repair work later. We know that the last thing you want to do after we leave is make another appointment to finish your emergency plumbing job. That is why we make sure that every certified plumber we send out is equipped with the parts he will need to get the job done. If we do need to order a part, then we get it fast and put a temporary solution in place that will prevent further damage to your home.
When you have a plumbing issue in your home that needs immediate attention, you certainly do not want to deal with an unfriendly company that does not understand your problems. We promise that when you call us, you will get a helpful and friendly person on the other end of the line. It may or may not be the certified plumber that comes out to solve your problem, but it will be someone who knows what you are going through and wants to get help out to you as fast as possible.
In an emergency, you do not need to talk to a plumbing company that prioritizes jobs based on close proximity to the office or how easy the job may be to perform. You want a company that treats every call as an individual emergency that requires immediate attention. We know how frustrating and, in some cases, terrifying a home plumbing crisis can be. We don’t put you on a waiting list when you call. We find a certified plumber that can get to you right away and take care of the problem. If there will be a delay in our arrival, we will try to give you some quick steps you can take to limit the damage until we arrive.

Emergency situations include
Pipe leaks - Gas Leaks
From smaller leaks to a burst pipe, we know how scary pipe flooding can be. The sound of a pipe bursting can be intimidating and the helpless feeling of water everywhere can be stressful. If you notice a sudden drop in water pressure, then you will want to check for a burst pipe. If you have a problem, then give us a call.
Clogged Toilet
It happens all the time. A toilet can get clogged for many reasons, and a severe clog may not be something that you can deal with on your own. If the toilet backs up and the plunger you have is not doing the job, then call us right away and we will get you through this home crisis.
Faucet Malfunction
We use our faucets every day and can start to take them for granted after a while. A faucet malfunction can lead to a massive water leak that can cause severe water damage to your home. If your faucet starts to leak or malfunctions to the point where it is starting to fall apart, do not hesitate to contact us immediately.
Basement Flooding
A flooded basement can be the result of a clogged basement drain, a bad sump pump or a leaking pipe. If the water supply valve for your house is leaking, then that is a major issue. If your basement is flooding with water, then call us right away so we can limit the damage and property loss.

Galvanic Corrosion - Electrolysis
Galvanic Corrosion - Electrolysis
For galvanic corrosion to occur, dissimilar metals must be Connected in the presence of an electrolyte. Salt water and acid solutions are excellent electrolytes. A perfect example of a salt solution would be a water softener system installed. Ordinary fresh potable water is a weak electrolyte, and distilled water or condensate, extremely weak electrolytes. Steam will not act as an electrolyte at all. The weaker is electrolyte, the more limited the galvanic action. It should be emphasized that with fresh water, galvanic corrosion is not common often any form of corrosion not clearly understood is wrongly labeled electrolysis, electrolyte take action, or galvanic corrosion. To a study of the problem, the various metals have been listed in what is known as the galvanic series. One end of the series is most noble, the other, least Noble. The least noble and includes metals that are I know as anodic toward those further up the scale. This means they are corroded because, when joined two metals higher in the scale, they are electro-negative. The self generated current levels the less noble or and anodic metal to enter the electrolyte and it carries the metal with it. Another words the anode leaches into the solution.
Metals near the more noble and Cathodic and electropositive with respect to the less noble metals with which they may be joined. This protects them from corrosion. Current enters the metal from the electrolyte and may deposit on the Cathodic metal the metal it has corroded from the Anodic metal.

Water Pressure
Low Water Pressure Repair Specialists In Los Angeles
Richards Rooter And Plumbing Can Solve Your Water Pressure Problems
Do your pipes rattle when you turn on the hot water or a heavy water flow? How about when you run the warm or hot water through the bath tub or sink faucet. Maybe you left the hot water heater on for a good five minutes but still the hot water only lasts for a minute. These are all signs of serious plumbing issues that need attention.

The most common indicators of a malfunctioning regulator are:
– high/low water pressure
– high/low water flow
– surging water
– banging pipes
– vibrating pipes
– leaking toilet fill valves
– leaking hot water relief valves
– broken pipes and leaking faucets
You may or may not notice the symptoms listed and the symptoms listed may be related to other plumbing system problems.
Recommended water pressure in a home is 55 PSI; the most state codes list the maximum safe allowable pressure at 80 PSI in any building. Most faucet, toilet and water heater manufacturers void their warranties when water pressure exceeds 80 PSI, and if you have a home warranty, some warranty companies void your coverage if your home has excessive pressure.
For those in the Los Angeles area, there is an answer for plumbing help and related needs. Richards Rooter And Plumbing has been in the business of home and business plumbing repair since the mid-1940s. The plumbers have served the Los Angeles area for decades, handling both residential and business plumbing needs, regardless of the size of the project. The service maintains a round-the-clock response reception, so weekend and evening jobs are not out of the question for emergency calls. This is particularly important since plumbing leaks and water problems don’t necessarily happen during business hours. Richards Rooter And Plumbing’s skilled plumbers are no strangers to handling hot water problems either. Richards Rooter And Plumbing’s plumbers can deal with both standard water heater hot water systems as well as the new plumbing technology of tankless systems for water heating. They also bring with them a fundamental understanding of how plumbing systems are built, particularly with managing water pressure as water flow adjusted from the city main water supply to the much smaller system inside a hole or building.
Abnormal water pressure is a common problem in residential plumbing systems, particularly in homes with pipes that are older than 20 or 30 years. Today, many structures have plumbing installed with regulators to control water pressure from getting out of hand, but older buildings and homes did not have such controls. These gauges and valves control the flow so that it doesn’t overwhelm the pipe system in the structure. However, municipal agencies have upgraded their water systems over the years, so the water pressure today is far more than what was in the system 30 years ago.

Common signs of water regulators starting to give up the ghost tends to be fluctuating water pressure. Another sign can be significant change in the water flow coming through the plumbing. If the water is burping and then surging out of a faucet it’s a symptom. The all-too-famous rattling or vibrating pipes is also a sign of too much pressure in the system. Not so related signs tend to be where water may be leaking out of valves either in toilets, faucets, or pipe connections. A layperson may think it’s really the valve or joint that has a weakness but instead the pressure is greater than the valve was designed for, thanks to a regulator failure.
The standard water pressure for a residential plumbing system in a home should be at 55 pounds per square inch, or PSI. The high range safety level is reached when the same plumbing PSI exceeds 80. Beyond this point, many plumbing manufacturers no longer back up the capabilities of their products as the pressure will eventually overcome their valves. Homebuilders will also back away from performing any repairs on a house with water pressure exceeding acceptable standards.
Where water line regulators begin to fail, the control aspect no longer exists as pressure pushes its way through into the rest of the plumbing system. Regulator failure can occur due to age or if the unit gets damaged somehow. It can also happen in an obvious fashion or not be seen for quite a while. Since much of a structure’s plumbing system tends to be buried behind drywall and separations, many leaks won’t be seen until they become much bigger or stronger. A related repair job can be quite a process as well. Failure generally requires a replacement of the unit, and the installation of a new part can be a technical affair. This is not the kind of job that gets fixed with a simple repair kit from your local hardware store.
A homeowner or building tenant can get many of these problems fixed with Richards Rooter And Plumbing’s expertise and help. You don’t have to try to manage these plumbing problems alone. Making a quick call can get you back to normal quickly, with Richards Rooter And Plumbing’s skilled crews fixing the problem and restoring you to the way you were before the plumbing problems began.
