Plumbing repair often starts with a sound. The toilet refills on its own at night, or the kitchen faucet keeps dripping after you shut it off. Hukill's repairs and replaces toilets, faucets, shower valves and garbage disposals. We also fix the valves most people never see, like pressure reducing valves and backflow devices.
We work out of our Medford office and serve homes and businesses across Jackson and Josephine Counties. Plumbing repair is one part of our work as a full-service plumber in Medford. If the problem is no hot water, start with water heater repair. Call or text (541) 734-9000 and tell us what the fixture is doing.
Tell us about the clog, leak, septic tank, water damage or remodel and where it is. We look at the job and put the quote in writing.
A running toilet usually comes down to a worn flapper or a fill valve that will not shut off. A worn flapper can make a toilet flush on its own, the EPA says. It can also leak thousands of gallons a year without a sound. A toilet that rocks or leaks at the base usually needs a new wax ring, and sometimes a flange repair.
A faucet drip usually comes from a worn seal or cartridge, and those parts can be replaced. The EPA says a faucet dripping once per second can waste more than 3,000 gallons a year. When the faucet body is cracked or parts are no longer made, a new faucet is the better fix. A leak you can hear but cannot see starts with leak detection.
Shower valves wear out too, and water that turns hot or cold when someone flushes points to the valve. The Oregon Plumbing Specialty Code calls for pressure balance or thermostatic valves that protect against scalding. It also caps the water from a showerhead at 120 degrees. A worn cartridge often swaps out from the front, while a new valve body usually means opening the wall.
Garbage disposal repair comes down to one choice: fix the unit or replace it. A jam or a leak at the sink flange can usually be fixed. Water dripping from the body of the unit is another story. It usually means the seals inside have failed, and a new disposal is the fix.
Grease is a common cause of trouble past the disposal. It goes down warm, then hardens in the pipes. If the sink still backs up with the disposal running, the clog sits farther down the line. That is a job for drain cleaning.
Most new disposals ship with a plug in the dishwasher inlet, and it must be knocked out before hookup. The plumbing code also keeps a dishwasher drain off the outlet side of a disposal. A new outlet or circuit under the sink is a job for an electrician.
A pressure reducing valve, or PRV, usually sits near where the main water line enters the house. The Oregon Plumbing Specialty Code calls for one when static pressure in the supply piping runs above 80 psi. The Medford Water reports 35 to 100 psi across its system, with elevation behind most of the spread. A worn PRV can let pressure creep back up, which is hard on faucets and toilet valves.
A backflow device stops water from running backward out of a sprinkler line into household plumbing or the public system. The Medford Water says a landscape irrigation system always needs one. Oregon rules call for a test when a device goes in and at least once every 12 months.
Oregon rules limit who may run that test, and the state keeps a list of certified backflow testers. We repair and replace backflow devices that leak or fail a test. After any repair, Oregon rules call for a fresh test.

Got our water heater changed out this evening and the whole process was smooth. From setting up an appointment, communication, and the service. Marcos our technician that installed the water heater was great and made sure we got everything we needed in a timely manner. Recommend hukills to anyone looking for a quick or detailed repair!
Brandon and Colton did an outstanding job fixing our clogged sinks. They arrived within three hours of our call, were professional and courteous, and quickly diagnosed and resolved the issue. They explained everything clearly and left the work area clean when they were finished. We really appreciated their prompt response and excellent service. I highly recommend Hukill's to anyone looking for reliable, efficient plumbers.
After we had our septic tank pumped by Tristan this morning and then Brandon,Kayden and "G" the excavator operator came out to do an septic line investigation. I was very appreciative of them explaining and answering all my questions. I would definitely request them to help us again. Thank you all for all your hard work.
