Know the Valves, Control the Outcome

We don’t just repair valves, we help you understand them. We service and install:

  • Ball valves – smooth, quarter-turn shut-off; ideal for main lines
  • Gate valves – older style; full flow but harder to turn over time
  • Globe valves – common in older buildings; allow precise flow control
  • Spring/swing check valves – backflow prevention for vertical and horizontal runs
  • Angle stops – under-sink shut-off for quick isolation.
  • PRVs (pressure-reducing valves) regulate high water pressure and extend pipe life.

Every valve tells a story. We’re fluent in all of them.
