Plumbing Service near Spring TX
From tankless water heater repair and installation to whole home plumbing re-piping the licensed plumbers at Bradbury Brothers are ready to provide any plumbing solution that you and your family need. We also provide commercial plumbing services near Spring TX.
Is it worth switching to a tankless water heater?
Switching to a tankless water heater can have several potential benefits. Tankless water heaters are more energy efficient than traditional tank water heaters, because they heat water on demand rather than continuously heating a large tank of water. This can save energy and reduce your monthly energy bills. Tankless water heaters also take up less space and have a longer lifespan than traditional tank water heaters.
However, the initial cost of purchasing and installing a tankless water heater can be higher than a traditional water heater, and Bradbury Brothers plumbers can help weigh the potential benefits and costs before making a decision.
Electricians near Spring TX
Our licensed Electricians handle electrical system repairs, inspections, circuit panel upgrades and EV charger installation for your home or business.

Circuit breakers are a crucial part of your home’s electrical system, and replacing one improperly can be dangerous. Bradbury Brothers electricians have the knowledge, experience, and tools to safely and correctly replace the circuit breaker.

HVAC, Plumbing & Electrical FAQs
It costs about $350-$600 to fix a broken home air conditioner in Spring, TX.
The price of the repair can vary due to:
- The type of repair
- The level of the repair
- The HVAC contractor’s hourly fee
Another thing that can cause the price to vary is if the repair requires replacement parts. A good way to prevent unexpected repairs is to get your air conditioner on a maintenance plan since regular maintenance enables you to spot issues before they become more severe.
A new air conditioning unit usually costs around $10,000-$15,00 to install or replace in Spring, TX.
However, the cost may fluctuate depending on:
- The size of your home.
- The type of air conditioning unit you want installed.
- The new units efficiency.
Getting a new air conditioning unit can be expensive, but very worthwhile if your current unit is failing. An older and ineffective unit can cost you much more on repairs and energy costs each year.
Yes, you can call a plumber to fix a hot water heater in Spring, TX. Plumbers are the best contractors to call for your hot water heater issues, as they know the most about your hot water heater and how it functions. If you have an issue with the water lines, gas lines or the valves, a plumber will be able to address it. If the issue is with the power to your water heater, you may need to hire an electrician.

To get your hot water heater fixed, call us today!
To ensure your home electrical system operates effectively and efficiently in Spring, TX you should:
- Make sure your home’s wiring is updated
- Have each of your electrical outlets replaced with grounded outlets
- Make sure your electrical panel is powerful enough to support your appliances
- Have GFCI and AFCI outlets installed where they are necessary
One of the best ways to make sure all of your electrical systems are up to date is to have your electrical systems inspected by an electrician. To learn more about optimizing your electrical systems, give us a call today.
A whole-house plumbing repipe can average anywhere from $3,500 to $10,000. In some instances it can cost more depending on the type of pipes you want installed, the accessibility of your current pipes, the size of your home, and how many bathrooms you have.
If you notice your pipes are leaking, your water bills are higher or your water pressure is dropping, you may need to have your house repiped.
Converting to a tankless water heater typically costs between $2,000-$3,500 on average.
One of the most common things that can affect the cost for switching to a tankless water heater is the placement of the new heater. There won’t usually be any extra costs if you plan on having the tankless water heater installed where your old water heater was, but you may pay more for installation if you decide to have the new unit installed in a different area of your home.
Air conditioners need to be serviced at least once a year in order to make sure they aren’t experiencing any background problems that are affecting the unit’s efficiency or that could cause damage to the unit down the line. Typically, the best time to schedule AC maintenance is in the Spring. However, you may need to have your AC serviced twice a year if you live in a hot area, like Spring TX, and have your AC running year-round.

Came out today to look at a few different issues for the customer. The customer mentioned a rattling sound in the wall when his washing machine ran so we gave him an estimate for some air arrestors to install on the washing machine valves. Also the flapper in the master toilet was leaking through so we gave a quote to change that. The customer also had a disposal for us to change out and while we were under there we investigated a bad odor, and after pulling the escussion loose and removing the material they had stuffed in the wall we got a scope in there and could not find anything. Also got a scope into the relief vent section and could not find any non-connected areas that would let sewer gas in the cabinet. We resealed the plug that didn’t look like it was properly sealed and we ended up bypassing the airgap. For now the smell seem to have dissipated but the customer will let us know if it returns and we can have Woodlands restoration go out and check for mold or they can pay for

Called out because there was water coming through the ceiling. Mr Aguilar said he’s had this problem with the old unit, and he installed this one about a year ago and he still has the problem. The drain line is clear, the coil is level and the primary drain pan has a factory pitch away from the supply plenum back towards the coil. The water is dripping from about a foot past the coil at a joint in the trunk line. Water appears to getting blown past primary pan by the air flow. Checked the static pressure and the blower speed. TESP is 0.98 and the blower has been turned down to medium, which is 1140 CFM at current static’s. Can’t slow the blower any more as the CFM is already too low 4 ton unit should have 1600 CFM ideally, or a minimum of 1400 CFM. Recommended additional return as the chase does not provide as much air as the system needs and adding Supplies because once we lower return static’s then the supply static’s are likely to go up. Advised that’s the best we can do

I inspected the short primary line and as far as I can see there is no visible leak in the attic but the line does run in between the bathroom and bedroom upstairs and may be leaking directly onto the first floor between the walls where the kitchen is located. Will have plumbing take a look at this issue since the leak is in between the walls. Returned tstat to original settings: y(off)
Came out today to give the customer an estimate to change out one of his two water heaters in the attic, we did mention that it’s usually better to take out both of the water heaters and go with a tankless because they are more efficient and last a whole lot longer but they are not interested in tankless So we gave a quote for a conventional 40 gallon natural gas. The customer has multiple estimates to decide on so he will let us know if he wants to go with us.

AC Diagnostic System: Upstairs Refrigerant Type R22 Metering Device- TXV SP/HP 26/151 SLT/LLT 80/82 VSAT/LSAT 2.5/83 SH/SC 77/1 Outdoor Entering Air Temperature 76 Return Temperature- 83 Supply Temperature- 82 from top, 68 from side Static Pressure RP 0.20 /FR — /FS 0.32 /SP 0.19 TESP 0.52 Returned tstat to original settings: Y Unit operational; prior to leaving: N Notes: Came out to reassess how bad the refrigerant leak is on the upstairs unit. Mr. Vega said the unit is longer freezing but still not cooling sufficiently. Took air temperature readings per Mr Vegas request and explained That the reason the air temperature is different depending on where you check is because there is not enough refrigerant to fill the coil so one part of the coil is still able to coil while another part is not. If coil can’t work properly it is unable to cool the house. Then went outside to check the pressures and found the pressures even lower than before he added refrigerant. Explained

Homeowner had us out today to do a tankless to tankless change out. Installed a Rinnai RL75. That is the same size that was on there to begin with. Checked everything out to make sure everything was working properly. There is plenty of hot water again. Also the control board is working on the inside of the house. Tankless is on outside of house.
Arrived to check gas leak found by an ac tech on furnace lines in attic. Upon arrival customer stated that he had called the gas company and they came out and shut off the gas, meter is locked. Informed customer that with out the gas being on we would need to do a gas pressure test to confirm location and test after the repairs are made. Customer showed me where the gas company stated the leak was. Informed customer I would take apart and reseal all fittings on the furnace gas lines from where he showed me all the way to the valves as that was they only way to get to the fitting he specified. Took apart and resealed all necessary fittings. Unable to test without a gas test. Customer has called gas company back out to turn on gas. Customer is uninterested in comfort club at this time.
Unit- AC3 Carrier MN: 48HCEB06A2P6A0K1F0 SN: 2913C88676 Found drain line extremely clogged. Drain line wasn’t glued together so I was able to take it apart and clear the ptrap and the termination point at the unit. I then vibrated the drain line and got the debris out of the line itself. At this time the drain line is draining properly. It may take some time for the water in the duct work to subside.
