Yes. A Hitchins repipe runs room by room so the house never loses water for more than a few hours at a stretch. Old galvanized and polybutylene are the two we replace most.
Yes. Burst pipes, sewage backups and no-water calls in Hitchins are answered around the clock. The first thing on the phone is getting your main shutoff closed so the house stops taking damage while a truck is on the way.

You get a price for the repair before any work starts, not an hourly meter that runs while you watch. The diagnostic visit in Hitchins is quoted up front on the phone, and if you approve the repair that visit charge goes toward the job.
Almost always. A cable machine or hydro jet goes in through an existing cleanout and clears the line from there. In Hitchins the camera goes down afterward so you can see whether it was grease, roots or a broken section.
What homeowners say after the truck pulls out.
"Water heater let go on a Sunday morning and flooded half the basement. Had someone here inside two hours, new tank in by afternoon, and he hauled the old one off. Price was what he said on the phone."
"Kitchen drain had been slow for a year. Ran the cable, then put a camera down and showed me the grease ring on his screen. Explained what to stop pouring down it. Has not backed up since."
"Bill jumped forty dollars with nobody home. They found a slab leak under the hallway in about twenty minutes with a listening device. No jackhammering until they knew exactly where."
