"The job that was performed went exceptionally well. I didn't have a pick-up truck to retrieve the water heater from a local store, he went over to the store and picked it up for me. He removed the old one and installed the new one. He also cleaned up the water that leaked over when emptying the old one. I called Affordable Plumbing in the morning and he was right over with in the hour. He hooked up my water line for the evaporative cooler while he was here. The cost was much less than what I had anticipated, a whole lot less. I'm satisfied and thankful. He's upfront with cost and no hidden fees. I would definitely recommend Art Villalobos for plumbing  needs. I will use his services in the future.

"Mr. Stressler was very easy to work with, and he did everything asked of him. His work met all of my expectations and specifications. Should I need any further remodeling, I would not hesitate to call Mr. Stressler. In category below asking for dates of service. But due to my travels, work was done in increments: master bath, kitchen, guest bathroom, and then in June a one day outside job in which a new door was put on a storage unit, and my security door was given a new coat of paint."

"The service went well and they were very helpful. We were looking to revamp our living room. We did everything for the service online. I think it would have been easier to get their service in person, however. They gave some great ideas and were easy to reach for the service. They were also very responsive."

Plumbing questions, answered by experts

Identify whether your property connects to the municipal water and sewer systems or relies on a private well and septic tank. You must also determine the construction era of your home to identify the existing pipe materials. Finally, check the depth of the caliche soil on your specific Portales lot, as shallow hardpan significantly increases the difficulty and effort required for any underground plumbing excavation.

Helpful?

The semi-arid climate in Portales brings sudden, severe winter freezes that damage pipes inside uninsulated exterior walls. Between July and September, intense monsoon rains saturate the ground, causing the caliche soil to expand. This ground movement stresses buried water lines and cracks older cast iron sewer pipes. Furthermore, heavy dust storms accelerate wear on outdoor plumbing components, destroying seals on hose bibs and evaporative cooler connections.

Helpful?

Start by locating your main water shutoff at the street meter, keeping it clear of hard caliche soil. To restore water pressure, unscrew and soak your faucet aerators to remove heavy mineral deposits. During a hard NM freeze, open cabinet doors on exterior walls and allow your faucets to drip. If you rely on a septic system, restrict your water usage to prevent overloading the drain field until a professional arrives.

Helpful?

In Portales, chalky white stains around fixtures indicate mineral buildup from the Ogallala Aquifer rather than an active leak. Check your evaporative cooler during the summer, as condensate overflow mimics indoor pipe leaks. Additionally, foundation movement from local caliche soil causes cracks and moisture issues that look exactly like plumbing failures. Hire a structural expert to inspect your foundation before scheduling plumbing repairs.

Helpful?

Watch for mismatched pipe materials or compression fittings, which indicate improper DIY repairs for hard water damage. In older New Mexico homes, rust-colored water and reduced pressure mean corroded galvanized pipes require immediate replacement. Slow drains throughout your entire house point to a patched, failing main sewer line. Finally, rumbling sounds from your water heater mean heavy sediment buildup has ruined the unit, requiring a full replacement.
