Seasonal plumbing for Wells homes

Seasonal homes need a plan before the first hard freeze. A winterization from our team can include draining the water system, adding non-toxic antifreeze to traps and fixtures, shutting down the water heater, and draining outside spigots and water lines, with documentation for your insurance records.

Working around the water district's schedule

Wells is served by the Kennebunk, Kennebunkport & Wells Water District, which shuts off its seasonal water mains each fall and handles seasonal turn-on and turn-off requests. If your home is on seasonal water, tell us when you book and we'll plan your winterization and spring turn-on around the district's timing.

Reopening in the spring

Spring reactivation is required with every winterization we do, so your turn-on is already part of the plan when it's time to come back. If you rent your home, opening day is a good time to catch a slow drain or a dripping faucet before guests arrive. See our seasonal services.

Backflow testing from an approved tester

Agamenticus Plumbing & Heating is on the Kennebunk, Kennebunkport & Wells Water District's list of approved backflow testers. We test backflow preventers and file the results, and we repair, swap out, or install new devices when needed. Testing and filing of results are due every year, generally by a date in June, which is sent by letter to each customer with a device. If you've received a testing notice from the district, mention it when you get in touch. More about backflow prevention.

Water heater installation and repair

When a house fills up for a long weekend, the water heater is often the first thing to show its age. We repair and replace gas, electric, hybrid heat pump, and indirect water heaters and can help you choose one that fits how your home is used. We're also an Efficiency Maine Registered vendor who can help with rebates. See our water heater services.

Leaks and everyday plumbing repairs

We take care of leaking pipes, worn-out faucets, running toilets, and fixture replacements, along with bathroom and kitchen plumbing updates. If you have a few things on your list, share them when you book so we can plan the visit. Browse all of our services.

Inspections and maintenance

An inspection is a good way to understand an older plumbing system or one that came with a house you just bought. We offer whole-home plumbing inspections with a report and keep records of the work we do, which makes each future visit more efficient. Learn about our inspections.
