About B&D Craftsmen in Jeffersonville, IN

Our local plumbing inspection focuses on identifying the specific risks your home faces during our Southern Indiana winters. We check pipe insulation in vulnerable areas like attics, basements, and crawl spaces, assess the condition and drainage of your outdoor faucets (hose bibbs), and ensure your main water shut-off valve is accessible and working. This proactive check-up allows us to recommend targeted fixes, like adding insulation or installing frost-proof spigots, to help prevent the costly damage of frozen or burst pipes.

Winter weather increases the demand on your home's electrical system with heating equipment, holiday lighting, and more indoor activity. An electrical inspection from B&D Craftsmen ensures your wiring, circuit breakers, and outlets can handle the extra load safely. We'll check for any potential fire hazards, such as overloaded circuits or faulty wiring, which is especially important when using space heaters—a common response to cold snaps. Keeping your electrical system in top shape is a key part of overall home safety and preparedness for our Indiana seasons.

When you've had a frozen outdoor faucet, our inspection becomes even more critical. We will thoroughly examine the faucet (hose bibb) for any existing damage or slow leaks that make it prone to freezing. Crucially, we check that it's properly drained and that the interior shut-off valve is fully functional, as this is the primary defense. We'll also assess the surrounding wall insulation. Based on our findings, we can repair or replace the unit with a frost-proof model—a highly effective solution for our Jeffersonville climate—to give you peace of mind for next winter.
