It’s been awhile since we’ve posted on our blog. We’ve been so fortunate to have so much support from our community with our business – word of mouth is truly the oldest and best type of advertising. Thank you to all of our peeps out in the community who make us smile when they share their photos with us on their travels – near and far! Here’s a few from some recent travels – Grass Valley, Ca Memorial Park Ball Field – Seattle, WA – Fordyce Lake – Hearst Castle – Mount Rushmore – San Francisco, CA – and good ol’ Nevada City, Ca & Grass Valley, CA – we feel your love!

Craig Johnson Plumbing is being flooded with calls (no pun intended) for leaking and corroded pipes. If your home is 20 plus years old it may be time to consider repair cost vs. replacement. Galvanized pipes can corrode over time and slow the water flow and not to mention the unpleasant rust and debris associated with older pipes. Copper pipes can become thin over time and spring little pin hole leaks…and become a nuisance.

If you’re considering a repipe of your home, please give us a call for a free estimate and we’d be happy to come by to come up with a customized solution for you!

Do you have a leak? It’s the little ones that can add up to the most consumption…a slow leak can result in a substantial amount of water consumption. Keep an eye on your water bill and note your usage. Does it seem accurate? It’s amazing how much water we can go through…making some little changes can result it a lower bill! If you’re on a well a little leak can run up your electricity…your pump will need to meet the demands of the water leak resulting in more electricity cost.

If you suspect a leak…or want advice on what you can do to improve your water consumption give us a call! We’d be happy to pass along our tips!

We are very excited to be able to provide Bio-Clean to our Grass Valley, CA – Nevada City, CA clients.

From the BIO-CLEAN website –

BIO-CLEAN is… a blend of bacteria and enzymes. The bacteria are natural, not genetically-engineered. The enzyme concentration is the most powerful on the market.

SAFE
Bio-Clean is non-poisonous. It creates no heat, no fumes, no boiling. It does not attack live tissue nor inorganic materials, only organic wastes like grease, hair, food particles, paper, cotton & sewage. This makes BIO-CLEAN safe for people, plumbing and the environment. BIO-CLEAN changes the waste particles into water, carbon dioxide and mineral ash which run harmlessly out of your waste system. These elements are then available for plant life.

EFFECTIVE
Within an hour after pouring the bacteria into the drain, the bacteria begin to eat their way into the waste that has accumulated on the sides and top of the drain pipe. This is their natural food. They digest the waste and spread throughout your system, cleaning it completely. 

MULTIPURPOSE
• Residential and commercial applications
• All drain and sewer pipes, including:

IF you’d like to order your Bio-Clean from your friendly local plumber just give us a call…we’d be happy to deliver it right to your doorstep!

Brrr…it’s been so cold and that means frozen and broken pipes for our Nevada County customers. We’ve been at it since Sunday, December 8th, with numerous calls for frozen and broken pipes. The best prevention for frozen and broken pipes is to insulate and run a trickle of water in your sink on nights when the temperature gets below freezing. For more tips please call the office! We’d be happy to share advice with you!

Craig Johnson Plumbing has joined forces with the local Grass Valley Chamber of Commerce. We’re very excited to be a part of our local chamber. They offer so many opportunities for local businesses. We look forward to all that the chamber has to offer. Living and working in the Grass Valley community has been such a wonderful experience…we look forward to many more years to come!

Have you Yelped?

We’ve recently been introduced to Yelp by having one 5 star review and one 1 star review. Yelp is a forum for the public to share their opinions about businesses all over the country…even in our little town. I’ve taken some time to add a little bit about our company on Yelp so that people who happen upon this “search” can find us. When you have amazing service you want to shout from the rooftops and tell everyone…same goes if you had a less than ideal experience too. Now what? When someone has something positive to say all is good…but when they want to say something negative to say it can really wreck your day. I’m an extremely positive person and I realize that when people reach out to us for help it’s because they’re having a bad day…so you can either be perceived as a superhero or a zero.  We want to make sure that each and everyone of our customers feel like we are ready, willing and able to help them.

When you call a plumber to your home we want to help you so that we can both get on with our day…when we arrive to a home that’s having issues we want to know a little bit of information before we start digging in to the problem. If you have had issues in the past it’s so helpful to share so that we can better serve you…it’s your home and every home is unique…if you honestly don’t know that’s okay too.  We don’t mind if you are merely shopping around or if you’re ready to take action and get your plumbing problem fixed. If  we can help you we will…we pride ourselves on prompt, courteous and knowledgeable service. We will go the distance to make sure that we help you and that you’re satisfied! Please feel free to contact me, Denise at 530-274-7275 if you need any help or Yelp!
