Common Questions
How can a professional plumbing inspection from Bechtold's help prevent my outdoor faucet from freezing?
A professional inspection includes checking your outdoor faucets for proper drainage and insulation. We'll identify if the shut-off valve is working correctly and if the faucet is frost-proof. For Lancaster's cold winters, this proactive step ensures water is fully drained from the line to prevent freezing, which can burst pipes and cause costly water damage inside your walls.
What does Bechtold's look for during a plumbing inspection that can identify the cause of recurring drain clogs?
During an inspection, we use specialized cameras to look deep into your pipes. We check for common Lancaster issues like tree root intrusion, scale buildup from hard water, or bellied pipes that trap debris. Finding the root cause of clogs allows us to recommend a targeted, long-term solution, like hydro-jetting or pipe repair, instead of just a temporary fix.
Is a plumbing inspection worthwhile if I'm not currently having any problems?
Absolutely. For Lancaster homeowners, preventative inspections are a smart investment. They can reveal minor issues—like a small leak or early corrosion—before they turn into major emergencies like a burst pipe or severe clog. Catching problems early saves you money on repairs and prevents the inconvenience and potential water damage of a sudden plumbing failure.
