Common plumbing concerns in Thornton
Thornton’s variety of home ages and soil conditions can contribute to drain, sewer, water-service and fixture problems. Water-heater reliability, basement drainage and freeze protection are also important throughout Colorado’s seasonal temperature swings.
Call when a leak cannot be isolated, a drain repeatedly backs up, several fixtures lose pressure, a gas line needs professional attention or a water-heating system becomes unreliable.
Gas-leak safety
If you smell or suspect natural gas, leave the area immediately and call 911 from a safe location. Then contact the property’s gas utility. Xcel Energy instructs its Colorado customers to call 800-895-2999 after calling 911.
