The Most Wonderful Time of the Year! A
Sarah Warburton re you ready to have yourself a holly, jolly Christmas? Master Plumber Alan Burkhalther says, “Don’t be fooled by flashy promises designed to get a company’s foot in your front door. We earn your business the old-fashioned way––by giving the best prices on the good work we do! Being a familyowned and operated business for the last fifteen years keeps our operating costs low...and we pass those savings on to you. When it comes to honest pricing on the actual job, we know we’re the best in town!” Remember last year when every third house on the street had a flood from their frozen sprinkler systems? People all over town called Alan’s Plumbing and Alan’s mother or his wife, Jennifer answered the phone. Jennifer says, “Just wrapping that exposed pipe from your sprinkler system to your house isn’t enough. You have to go to the vacuum breaker for your sprinkler system, turn one knob to shut the water to it off, and then turn the other to bleed down the water that’s still in there. If you don’t, that’s the place where water freezes and expands, causing a crack and a flood.
If you can’t turn the knob or the pipe’s corroded, give us a call. We were running all over town taking care of people last winter, but we’d love to help you before it’s an emergency!” Are you going out of town for the holidays? Along with the house key and the alarm code, make sure your neighbor or best friend has the number for Alan’s Plumbing––281-261-1064. You never know when crazy weather can cause an emergency plumbing problem, and you’ll need a team you can trust to get the job done at a reasonable price. Keep the holidays happy. Whether you’ve got a burst pipe, a clogged drain, need to replace a hot water heater, or a toilet reset, call Alan, Jennifer, their three sons––Beau, Luke, and Jake––brothers Chris and Brian and fellow plumber Zack. Jennifer says, “Our family is doing well and we hope yours is, too! Merry Christmas from all us at Alan’s Plumbing!” Alan’s Plumbing 281-261-1064
