Water Heaters
Most of us take our water heaters for granted. It’s only when we take a cold shower or try to wash the dishes with no hot water that we really think about them. Most hot water heaters are hidden away in a closet or a corner of the basement, so it’s a case of out of sight, out of mind.
At Hansen Plumbing, we are water heater experts. We repair and install several different kinds of water heaters, depending on your needs and budget. These include:
Tankless Water Heaters
Electric Water Heaters
Gas Water Heaters
A water heater leaking from the bottom can be a telltale sign you need a new water heater. Over the years, water heaters can corrode from the inside, and start leaking from the bottom. If you have a puddle of water under your water heater, give us a call.
If there is water dripping from the vertical piping next to your water heater, you may need a new expansion tank. If your water never gets hot, it may be an issue with the thermostat, the gas ignition, or your electric. We will always check for small problems first, before recommending replacing your water heater.
If your water heater is more than 10 years old, you may want to be on the lookout for issues. As a rule of thumb, tank water heaters last about 8-12 years.
Drain Cleaning
Our drain cleaning service is fast and affordable, and we offer up-front pricing so you know what you’ll be paying before any work starts. Common drain cleaning service includes clearing of:
Main sewer lines
Kitchen sink drains
Bathroom sink drains
Bathtub and shower drains
Washing machine lines
Dryer vents
Condensation lines
Storm drains
Floor drains
If you’ve tried home remedies such as plunging or using a chemical drain cleaner and you still have slow operating drains, standing water in the sink or tub, a sewage backup, etc. it’s time to call in the professional drain cleaning team at Hansen Plumbing.
We have several methods of clearing your drains, depending on where the clog is and what pipe is clogged. We use the latest technology, and can send a camera into your pipes if the clog isn’t obvious right there near the drain. From clogged sewer lines to clogged bathtub drains, we’ve seen it all, and can unclog any drain.
We’ll show you or tell you what the source of the problem is, and we can install traps to help prevent the problem in the future. Our technicians may also make other recommendations to help keep your drains clear.

Sewer Line Camera
Thanks to the innovation of the sewer line camera, the days of digging up the majority of a yard to find the problem in a sewer line are gone. Hansen Plumbing uses our sewer line camera to locate clogs, root damage, cracks, and other damage to your sewer line, so we can pinpoint where work needs to be done.
Camera Pinpoints Source of Clogged Sewer Line or Damaged Sewer Line
Using a high resolution sewer line camera allows us to do a visual inspection of the inside of your pipes, even though they are underground. The waterproof camera is attached to a flexible rod. Your Hansen Plumbing technician will insert the rod into the pipe, allowing him to see the pipe, any clog, cracks, punctures or other issues.
During the sewer line inspection, the radio transmitters on the camera record the depth and physical location of any clogs or damage to the sewer line. This allows us to diagnose the problem, and pinpoint what section of the pipe needs to be cleaned, repaired or replaced.
We recommend a sewer line inspection if you are having repeated drain backups, multiple slow drains or clogs. And of course, if you have sewage backups or evidence of raw sewage in your yard, the sewer line camera can locate the source of the problem.
If it’s just a clog, we can perform sewer line cleaning right then and there to jet away the clog. If the video shows cracks, punctures, misalignment of the pipe, tree root infiltration or something else, we will determine the best way to address the issue. Our technicians will then tell you what the problem is and discuss sewer line repair or replacement options with you. We will not perform any repairs until you give the go ahead.
We also give free second opinions if another company has given you an estimate that you think is just too high.

Signs you may have problems with your sewer line include:

If you have any of these issues, call Hansen Super Techs right away to schedule same-day service
We can address several problems requiring cleaning, sewer line repair, or sewer line replacement, such as:
Broken or cracked pipe – sometimes due to age, shifting soil, frozen ground, etc.
Clogged sewer line – grease buildup or a foreign object that got flushed down the toilet can cause a blockage.
Belled pipe – a section of the pipe has sunk due to soil conditions, causing a section of the pipe to bend down, which allows paper and waste to accumulate rather than being flushed out.
Roots in the sewer line – Tree or shrub roots have infiltrated the sewer line, causing both a clog and a leak.
And more
We can send our sewer line camera into the sewer line to diagnose the issue and formulate a plan. We don’t start any repairs or replacements until we talk with you and make our recommendations.
Traditional Sewer Line Repair
We can do both open trench traditional sewer line repair or sewer line replacement where we use a backhoe to dig a trench and access the sewer line. All of that dirt we move is then put back in the trench after repairs or sewer line replacement are complete, and we seed the area.
Trenchless Sewer Repair
To avoid damage to your yard, property, or driveway, we also offer trenchless sewer repair. In this method of sewer line repair, we make small access holes on the surface where the damaged pipe begins and ends (as determined by the use of the sewer line camera). Our hydraulic machine then pulls the replacement pipe through the sewer line path and breaks up the damaged pipe at the same time. The new pipe is much stronger and more resistant to leaks than the old pipe and has a long life expectancy.
We will discuss the costs of each type of repair. Costs will vary depending on how many feet of pipe we are replacing, the depth of the pipe, and other factors unique to your property.
Pipe Relining
Pipe relining is another form of trenchless sewer repair, in which we repair the damaged sewer pipes by essentially creating a pipe within a pipe. We pump in epoxy relining materials that mold to the sides of the existing pipe, filling cracks or pinholes and creating a new smooth, seamless inner wall of your sewer line.
