Our Waterville water quality specialists test your water supply and install high-performance ion-exchange softeners or reverse osmosis systems engineered for optimal home protection.

If your water heater is under 8-10 years old and experiencing a faulty thermostat, failed heating element, or broken thermocouple, an affordable repair is usually recommended. However, if the internal tank is corroded, leaking from the base, or over 10-12 years old, upgrading to a high-efficiency tankless or hybrid system can save up to 40% on water heating utility bills. Our Waterville plumbers will inspect your system and provide honest options.

Turn the disposal switch off immediately to prevent motor burnout. A humming noise typically indicates that a foreign object or bone is jamming the impeller plate.

You can try pressing the red overload reset button on the bottom of the unit, or call 877-410-0321 to have a plumber in Waterville safely unjam or replace the unit.
