Plumbing Maintenance That Protects Your Property & Budget
Plumbing systems don’t get a day off. From morning showers to commercial kitchen cleanups, wear and tear are constant—and even minor issues like slow drains or silent leaks can escalate when left unaddressed. That’s why Wild Pine Plumbing offers routine plumbing maintenance services designed to catch early signs of trouble and help you avoid costly disruptions.
Our maintenance work goes beyond surface-level checks. We inspect pipes, test pressure, evaluate fixture performance, and flag any aging components that could lead to leaks, clogs, or water quality issues down the line.

Key Plumbing Maintenance Services We Provide
By keeping up with preventative maintenance, you reduce water waste, improve system performance, and extend the usable lifespan of your plumbing. It also lowers the likelihood of after-hours emergencies, saving you time, money, and stress. Whether you own a home, manage a business, or oversee a multi-unit property, maintaining your plumbing isn’t just smart—it’s essential.
Leak Detection & Repair
Small leaks often go unnoticed but can cause significant water damage and increase your water bills. We use advanced leak detection tools to locate hidden leaks behind walls, under slabs, and in hard-to-reach pipes. Early detection allows us to perform targeted repairs that minimize disruption and protect your property.
Drain Cleaning & Prevention
Clogged drains are a common plumbing issue in Portland homes and businesses. We perform thorough drain cleaning using camera inspections and hydro jetting to remove debris, grease, roots, and mineral buildup. Additionally, we advise on preventive measures such as installing strainers and avoiding flushing inappropriate materials to keep drains flowing freely.
Water Heater Maintenance
Water heaters require regular flushing and inspection to remove sediment buildup and ensure safe operation. For storage-type heaters, we recommend flushing the tank every six months and annual professional inspections. Tankless water heaters benefit from periodic burner and coil cleaning to maintain efficiency and longevity.
Pipe and Fixture Inspections
We inspect pipes and fixtures for signs of corrosion, leaks, and wear. Early identification of issues like worn flappers, dripping faucets, or loose fittings allows for timely repairs that prevent water damage and maintain system integrity.
Water Pressure Testing & Regulation
Maintaining proper water pressure (typically between 40-60 psi) is essential to prevent pipe stress and leaks. We test water pressure and install pressure regulators when necessary to protect your plumbing system from damage caused by high pressure.
Seasonal Maintenance
Spring and fall are ideal times for comprehensive plumbing checks. We inspect sump pumps to prevent basement flooding during Portland’s rainy seasons and ensure all valves, shutoffs, and drainage components function properly.
