Heating, Cooling, Plumbing & Electrical Services in Eau Claire, WI

A plumbing problem may start at a fixture, water heater, drain, sump pump, or a section of pipe you can’t see. As a plumber in Eau Claire, WI, we fix all of those, and what we find usually depends on when the house was built. In Randall Park, the Third Ward, and the older blocks on both hills, the water lines are often galvanized steel and the drains are cast iron, some of it close to a century old. Water pressure drops a little every year as the pipe rusts shut from the inside. In a house from around 1970, which describes much of Eau Claire, the piping is usually sound but the sewer line to the street has had 50 years of tree roots working on it. When a main drain keeps backing up, we start with a sewer camera inspection. Then it’s drain cleaning with hydrojetting, or trenchless sewer repair or relining if the pipe has failed. Water heater repair and replacement is steady work for us here, on both gas and electric units. Eau Claire city water is moderately hard, enough to leave scale in a tank over the years. Wells outside the city tend to be harder and often carry iron. We install water softeners, iron filters, and reverse osmosis systems, and we’ll tell you which one your water calls for. Two rivers meet in the middle of town, and plenty of basements near them count on a sump pump every spring. We handle sump pump repair and replacement, and it’s worth having yours checked before the snow melts. On the electrical side, home offices, larger appliances, air conditioning, workshops, and EV chargers all pull more power than older houses were wired for. A 1970 home may still have its original 100-amp panel, and an older one may still have fuses. As an electrician in Eau Claire, WI, we handle electrical panel upgrades, wiring, outlets, switches, new circuits, and EV charger installation, plus power for a garage or basement workshop. For backup power, we do whole home backup generator installation. A standby generator runs on natural gas or propane and comes on by itself when the power goes out, so the furnace, sump pump, and refrigerator keep running. We size it to the house, install the transfer switch, and make the electrical and gas connections.
