Anderson Reuben L Cherne | Qualified Plumbing Repair in Minneapolis, MN

Many Minneapolis homes have aging pipes where joints can weaken over time. Our professional inspection uses specialized tools and expertise to check water pressure and visually assess all accessible joints for early signs of corrosion, mineral buildup, or hairline cracks. Catching these issues early during an inspection allows for a simple, affordable repair, preventing the water damage and mold growth that can occur from a sudden leak behind your walls.

A broken or stuck main shutoff valve is a common and serious issue in older Minneapolis homes. In a plumbing emergency, a functioning valve is critical to stopping water flow and preventing extensive damage. During every inspection, we specifically test this valve to ensure it turns on and off smoothly. If we find it's seized or leaking, we can recommend a repair or replacement, giving you peace of mind and protecting your home.

Between our scheduled inspections, keep an eye out for signs of the local issues we often find. Listen for dripping sounds behind walls, check under sinks for moisture or rust around pipe joints, and note any decrease in water pressure, which can indicate a blockage or leak. Also, test your main shutoff valve once a year to ensure it turns. If you notice any of these signs, it's a good idea to call us for a check-up to address it before it worsens.
