You see the problem on video, then get a guaranteed price-no surprises.

Question 10

Royal Elite Plumbing serves Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Boynton Beach, Wellington, Palm Beach, Pompano Beach, Deerfield Beach, Fort Lauderdale, Lighthouse Point, Lake Worth, Jupiter, Palm City, and Stuart. We cover all of Palm Beach County, southern Broward County, and Martin County with fast, reliable service. 24/7 emergency service available in all areas.

Question 11

How do I know if I need my water heater replaced?

Accepted Answer

Replace your water heater if you experience: (1) Rusty or discolored water, (2) Strange noises like rumbling or popping, (3) Leaking around the base, (4) Inconsistent hot water temperature, (5) Hot water runs out quickly, or (6) Age over 10-12 years for traditional tanks (8-10 years for cheap units). Royal Elite offers free inspections to assess your water heater's condition and provide an honest recommendation-we'll never sell you something you don't need.

Question 12

What brands of plumbing fixtures and hardware do you install?

Accepted Answer

Royal Elite Plumbing installs premium brands including Moen, Kohler, Delta, SharkBite, Uponor PEX, Rheem water heaters, Navien tankless systems, and Bradford White. We also stock builder-grade options for budget-conscious customers. Premium components last 2-3x longer (10-15 years vs 3-5 years) and perform better in South Florida's hard water and humid climate. We'll explain your options and let you choose what fits your budget and needs.

Question 13

Do you use camera inspection to find leaks and diagnose problems?

Accepted Answer

Yes! Royal Elite uses advanced video pipe inspection cameras, thermal leak detection systems, and electronic moisture sensors to locate leaks and problems accurately without unnecessary damage to your property. Our color video cameras show you exactly what's wrong inside your pipes-root intrusion, cracks, bellies, corrosion, or blockages. We provide before/after video proof so you can see the problem and the solution. No guesswork, no unnecessary exploratory demolition.

Question 14

Why do you offer both premium and builder-grade options?

Accepted Answer

We believe in giving you choices. Premium hardware lasts 2-3x longer (10-15 years vs 3-5 years), comes with better warranties (10-15 years vs 3-5 years or none), and performs better in South Florida's hard water and humid climate. While it costs slightly more upfront ($50-150 more per fixture), you save money long-term by avoiding repeat repairs. However, we understand budget constraints and will install builder-grade parts if that's what works for you right now. Either way, the installation is done professionally and correctly.
