About Bluefrog Plumbing + Drain®
Your Trusted Plumber in Lake Oswego
Lake Oswego in northwestern Oregon experiences varied temperatures throughout the year, dipping into the high 30s during winter, with summer temperatures averaging in the low 80s. The approximately 40,000 residents should pay close attention to cold snaps that send temperatures plummeting below freezing, as it puts their homes at risk for burst pipes. Additionally, heavy rainfall, especially during the city's wettest month of December, is another concern. It can cause soil shifting that could damage underground plumbing pipes.
bluefrog Plumbing + Drain's team is knowledgeable about how the local climate impacts plumbing systems in Lake Oswego and what residents can do to prevent damage. Our extensive experience, paired with our wide range of services, can help get and keep your pipes in working order.
Plumbing Services in Lake Oswego
Choose From Our Range Of Expertise
Residents can count on us for many common plumbing needs, including toilet leaks, water heater flushing, garbage disposal leaks, pipe leaks and faucet, sink and shower repairs. We recommend annual plumbing inspections in Lake Oswego to ensure your system is in good shape. Ask us about our bluefrog membership program, which has many perks, including free annual plumbing evaluations.
Leak detection allows our team to identify water leaks anywhere throughout your plumbing system, preventing water damage, mold growth and unusually high water bills. We opt for noninvasive methods when possible, such as video inspections.
Gas leak detection services are also available. Don't hesitate to contact us immediately, even if you suspect a leak but haven't yet verified it. Early detection is critical in preventing explosions, fires and health hazards.
Water heaters are often an unsung appliance, but they play a crucial role in daily comfort. Our water heater maintenance, installation, replacement and repair services keep the warm water flowing throughout the year.
Because Lake Oswego's water is hard, rather than soft, we recommend annual water heater flushing rather than biannual flushing. We check water heaters during our annual routine plumbing inspections, but please request if you'd like your appliance flushed during the appointment.
Repair and maintenance services are also available for tankless water heaters. Many people forgo their standard water heater and switch to this appliance after learning about its benefits, including its small size and energy efficiency.
Some plumbing situations can wait for a standard appointment, while others need immediate attention. There's no telling when a plumbing emergency will happen at your Lake Oswego home, but the bluefrog Plumbing + Drain team is standing by to assist. We offer 24/7 emergency services for serious plumbing problems like burst pipes, sewer backups, frozen pipes and no running water.
Annual professional drain cleaning keeps water flowing freely, so it doesn't have to navigate through a thick buildup on the interior pipe walls. It can also prevent other issues such as clogs, bug infestations and bad odors.
Ask us about our eco-friendly frogflow® drain line maintenance, which can help keep your drains healthy between yearly appointments. It's safe for all types of plumbing, including septic tanks and old pipes.
Repiping involves replacing existing plumbing pipes with new ones. Homeowners typically request this service when their pipes are damaged beyond repair, such as when there are continuous leak issues or severe corrosion. However, some also use it proactively, replacing old pipes before they incur significant damage.
Plumbing pipes can last decades before needing to be replaced, but their lifespan depends on several factors. For instance, ones in frequently shifting soil may need replacing sooner than those that remain in a steady position.
Maintenance also plays an important role in pipe longevity. The better you care for them by doing self-maintenance tasks and scheduling professional services, the longer they can last.
