About Armstrong Plumbing & Heating in Union, NJ

Absolutely. Our detailed plumbing inspection includes a thorough check of your sump pump system. We test the pump's operation, inspect the discharge line for clogs or freezing risks common in our area, and ensure the pit is clear of debris. Catching issues like a worn switch or inadequate drainage early can prevent a basement flood during the next heavy New Jersey storm.

A key part of our inspection is examining your washing machine supply hoses for signs of wear, bulging, or corrosion—common causes of sudden bursts. We check the connections for leaks and often recommend replacing standard rubber hoses with reinforced steel-braided hoses, a simple upgrade that provides much greater durability for Union homeowners.

Given our local climate and aging housing stock in Union, homes are susceptible to specific issues like sump pump strain from groundwater and rubber hose degradation. A proactive inspection allows us to identify these localized risks before they become emergencies. It's a cost-effective way to safeguard your home against the very problems we see most often in this community.
