Trusted Plumbing Company in Franklin, NC 28734 - American Plumbing

In Franklin, washing machines are often in basements or laundry rooms where a burst hose can cause significant water damage. Our thorough plumbing inspection includes checking your washing machine hoses for signs of wear, brittleness, or bulging—common issues in our climate. We'll recommend timely replacement with durable, braided stainless steel hoses to prevent a sudden failure and protect your home from flooding.

Franklin's terrain and weather can lead to basement moisture and flooding, especially during spring rains. A faulty sump pump is a major risk. Our inspection tests the pump's operation, checks the discharge line for clogs (like leaves or debris common here), verifies the float switch, and ensures the backup power source works. This proactive check ensures your primary defense against water intrusion is ready when you need it most.

Beyond specific appliances, our inspection for Franklin homes is a complete health check. We examine water pressure to prevent pipe stress, look for leaks under sinks and around toilets, inspect water heater anode rods and temperature settings, and check for proper venting and drainage. This holistic approach identifies small issues—like minor leaks or slow drains—common in local homes before they become major problems, saving you money and hassle.
