Plumbing Company Hillsboro IL | Call Bondurant Plumbing

Our plumbing inspection includes a check of all outdoor faucets (hose bibs) for proper shut-off valves and insulation. We identify if the faucet is a frost-free model installed correctly or if it needs a dedicated interior shut-off valve to prevent water from sitting in the pipe where it can freeze and burst. This proactive step during an inspection is crucial for Hillsboro winters to avoid costly outdoor pipe repairs come spring.

In our area, pipe vibration (often called water hammer) is frequently caused by high water pressure from the municipal supply or loose pipes in walls. A Bondurant plumbing inspection specifically measures your home's water pressure and checks pipe strapping throughout the system. We can pinpoint if the noise is from pressure that needs a regulator or from pipes that need securing, providing a clear fix to eliminate the annoying banging sounds.

Older homes in our community often have plumbing that wasn't designed for modern water pressure or may have outdated materials prone to local issues like freezing. Our inspection gives you a complete picture of your system's health, focusing on problem areas like exterior wall pipes susceptible to freezing and aging valves that can cause vibration. It's a smart, preventative measure to protect your home from the specific plumbing challenges we see in Hillsboro.
