Moss roots in our damp climate are notorious for invading small cracks in sewer pipes. Our comprehensive plumbing inspection uses specialized cameras to scout your entire sewer line from the inside. We can spot early signs of root intrusion, hairline cracks, or joint separations that roots exploit. Catching this early allows for targeted, less invasive repairs like hydro-jetting or spot repairs, preventing a full-scale sewer backup—a common and messy problem for Everett properties.

In Everett, freeze-thaw cycles don't just stress pipes; they can also impact the electrical systems that protect them. A frozen pipe that bursts can cause significant water damage to outlets, wiring, and your electrical panel, creating a serious shock or fire hazard. Our combined inspection ensures that pipe insulation and heat trace systems (which prevent freezing) are correctly installed and powered. We verify the safety of nearby circuits and GFCIs, giving you complete peace of mind for your home's safety.

Our pre-winter inspection focuses on vulnerability. We check all exposed pipes in unheated areas like crawl spaces, garages, and under sinks for proper insulation. We inspect pipe material and age, as older pipes are more brittle and prone to cracking from freeze-thaw stress. We also test outdoor spigots and irrigation systems to ensure they are fully drained. Our goal is to identify and seal drafts, upgrade insulation, and recommend solutions like heat tape where needed, tailored to your home's specific exposure.
