Did you know Brothers Plumbing, Heating & Electric provides sprinkler repair, whole-home repiping, gas line services, water filtration, leak detection, excavation, drain jetting, and more? Explore professional plumbing services available throughout the Denver Metro Area.
When most people think about calling a plumber, they picture a leaking faucet, clogged toilet, broken pipe, or water heater problem. Brothers Plumbing, Heating & Electric can help with all of those, but our Denver plumbing services go much further.
Our licensed plumbing team serves homeowners throughout the Denver Metro Area with services ranging from sprinkler system maintenance and whole-home repiping to gas line installation, water filtration, leak detection, sewer excavation, drain cabling, and hydro jetting.
If you have ever wondered, “Does Brothers do that?”, here are some of the residential plumbing services that might surprise you.
Sprinkler System Maintenance and Repair
Yes, Brothers works on existing residential sprinkler systems. While we do not install complete new sprinkler systems, our plumbing team can maintain, repair, update, and winterize the system you already have.
Colorado’s changing seasons can be hard on sprinkler systems. Freeze damage, broken sprinkler heads, leaking pipes, malfunctioning backflow devices, and aging equipment can all affect how efficiently your system operates.
Our sprinkler services include:
- Spring sprinkler startups
- Fall sprinkler winterizations and blowouts
- Sprinkler head replacement
- Sprinkler pipe repair
- Backflow preventer repair and replacement
- Sprinkler system rezoning
- Updates and improvements to existing sprinkler systems
- Sprinkler covers
During a spring startup, the system can be checked zone by zone so problems can be identified before the watering season gets underway. Before freezing temperatures arrive, professional sprinkler maintenance and winterization can remove water from vulnerable portions of the system and help reduce the risk of freeze damage.
What don’t we do? Brothers does not provide complete new sprinkler system installation. If you already have a system that needs maintenance, repair, modification, or seasonal service, we can help.
Whole-Home Repiping in the Denver Area
Brothers provides whole-home repiping services for homeowners dealing with aging or problematic plumbing.
One pipe repair may solve an isolated problem. However, if leaks, corrosion, water pressure issues, or pipe failures keep occurring throughout the house, repairing individual sections one at a time may stop making financial sense.
A whole-home repipe in Denver replaces aging water lines with updated plumbing materials such as copper or PEX. The appropriate material and installation plan will depend on the home’s existing plumbing, layout, water conditions, and long-term needs.
Repiping may be worth discussing if your home has:
- Repeated plumbing leaks
- Aging or deteriorating pipes
- Visible pipe corrosion
- Discolored water related to piping
- Poor or inconsistent water pressure
- Multiple plumbing sections that have already required repair
Plumbing for Home Remodeling Projects
Brothers can handle plumbing work associated with kitchen, bathroom, and home remodeling projects.
Moving fixtures, replacing old plumbing, adding new appliances, or changing the layout of a room can all require professional plumbing work. Involving a plumber early can help identify installation requirements before walls, flooring, cabinets, and finished surfaces are completed.
Our remodeling plumbing services may include:
- Toilets
- Bathtubs
- Showers
- Bathroom sinks
- Kitchen sinks and faucets
- Dishwashers
- Plumbing connections for stoves and other appliances
- Plumbing for additions or remodeled spaces
If your remodeling project affects water lines, drains, fixtures, or gas piping, it is a good idea to involve a licensed plumber during the planning process.
Indoor and Outdoor Gas Line Installation
Gas line installation and repair are also plumbing services offered by Brothers.
Our plumbers can run gas lines both inside and outside the home. Gas piping may be needed when installing, relocating, or upgrading gas-powered appliances and equipment.
Professional gas line installation and repair may be needed for:
- Gas ranges and ovens
- Dryers
- Furnaces
- Water heaters
- Fireplaces
- Outdoor grills
- Outdoor fire features
- Other approved gas appliances
Because gas piping involves important safety, permitting, and code requirements, installation and repair should always be completed by qualified professionals. If you smell gas or suspect an active leak, leave the affected area and contact the appropriate emergency service or utility provider.
Whole-Home and Point-of-Use Water Filtration
Brothers installs water filtration and water softening systems for Denver-area homeowners.
If you are concerned about hard water, mineral buildup, unusual taste, odor, or general water quality, there are several ways to treat the water entering your home.
Water treatment options include:
- Whole-home water filtration
- Water softeners
- Point-of-use water filtration
- Service and repair of existing filtration equipment
A whole-home system treats water as it enters the house, while a point-of-use system focuses on water at a specific fixture or location, such as a kitchen sink. Brothers can help homeowners compare water filtration and water softening options based on their water quality concerns and household needs.
Water Heater Flushing and Maintenance
You do not have to wait until your water heater breaks to call Brothers. We also provide water heater maintenance, including water heater flushing.
Sediment and minerals can accumulate inside traditional tank water heaters over time. Flushing the tank can help remove accumulated sediment and gives your plumber an opportunity to evaluate the condition of the system.
Regular water heater maintenance can be especially important in areas with hard water. Homeowners who want ongoing help maintaining their plumbing, heating, cooling, and electrical systems can also explore the Brothers Home Care Club.
Water Leak Alarms
Brothers can provide water alarms designed to alert homeowners when water is detected where it should not be.
Leaks near water heaters, washing machines, sinks, utility rooms, or other plumbing equipment can sometimes go unnoticed until significant water damage has already occurred.
A water alarm placed near a higher-risk plumbing area can provide an early warning when moisture or water is detected. These devices do not prevent every plumbing problem, but early detection can give homeowners valuable time to respond.
Professional Plumbing Leak Detection
Brothers provides leak detection services to help find plumbing leaks that are difficult to locate.
Not every leak is visible. Water can escape behind walls, beneath flooring, underground, or in other areas where the source is not immediately obvious.
Professional leak detection can help narrow down the location of a plumbing problem before repairs begin. This can reduce unnecessary searching and help determine the appropriate repair.
Possible signs of a hidden water leak include:
- An unexplained increase in water usage
- The sound of running water when fixtures are off
- Wet or unusually soft areas
- Water stains on walls or ceilings
- Musty odors
- Unexpected moisture
- Recurring plumbing problems without an obvious source
Sewer and Mainline Excavation Services
When a sewer or mainline problem is underground, Brothers can provide excavation services as part of the repair process.
Some underground sewer problems cannot be resolved through routine drain cleaning alone. Broken, collapsed, severely damaged, or improperly pitched piping may require access to the affected section.
Before excavation is recommended, the plumbing system can be evaluated to determine where the problem is located and what repair options may be appropriate. The goal is to address the damaged portion of the system while limiting unnecessary digging whenever possible.
Drain Cabling for Clogged Lines
Brothers provides professional drain cabling for clogged drain and sewer lines.
Drain cabling, sometimes called drain snaking, uses a flexible rotating cable to reach and break through blockages inside a pipe.
Cabling may be used for certain clogs involving:
- Hair
- Paper buildup
- Debris
- Organic material
- Some root intrusion
- Other drain obstructions
The appropriate drain cleaning method depends on the type of blockage, location of the problem, and condition of the piping.
Hydro Jetting for Drain and Sewer Lines
Brothers also provides hydro jetting when a drain or sewer line needs more intensive cleaning.
Hydro jetting uses high-pressure water to clean material from the inside walls of a pipe. Instead of only creating an opening through a blockage, jetting can remove buildup along a larger portion of the pipe.
Hydro jetting may be useful for certain problems involving:
- Grease buildup
- Sludge
- Heavy debris
- Recurring buildup
- Certain types of root intrusion
Before hydro jetting is performed, the condition of the drain or sewer line should be considered to determine whether it is the appropriate cleaning method.
