About A Select Plumbing in Brighton, MI

Our comprehensive plumbing inspection proactively checks for the root causes of basement flooding. We examine your main sewer line for blockages or damage, test sump pump operation, and look for hidden leaks in supply lines or signs of foundation seepage. Identifying these issues early allows us to recommend repairs or maintenance, such as drain cleaning or sump pump servicing, to prevent water from ever entering your basement.

During an inspection, our Brighton-based experts look for specific indicators of pipe corrosion common in our area. This includes checking for discolored water (a sign of rust in galvanized steel pipes), low water pressure from mineral buildup, visible green stains on copper pipes (indicating pinhole leaks), and listening for unusual sounds in the pipes. We assess the material and age of your plumbing to give you a clear picture of its condition and lifespan.

We recommend a professional plumbing inspection every 1-2 years for most Brighton homes. This regular check-up is especially important for older homes with original plumbing, which is more susceptible to corrosion, and for any home with a history of drainage issues or a finished basement you want to protect. Think of it like an annual physical for your home's vital systems—it's a small investment that can prevent major, disruptive problems down the line.
