About C & V Plumbing & Heating in Bronx, NY

During a plumbing inspection, our technicians specifically check the condition of your washing machine hoses—a common failure point in Bronx homes. We look for signs of wear, bulging, or corrosion and test water pressure, which can stress old hoses. Identifying and replacing a weak hose during an inspection is a simple, affordable fix that prevents a sudden burst and the extensive water damage it can cause in your laundry area.

If you suspect frozen pipes, first turn off your main water supply to prevent a burst when they thaw, and call us immediately. To prevent this common Bronx issue, our plumbing inspections include checking pipes in unheated areas like basements, crawl spaces, and exterior walls. We assess insulation levels and identify drafts that leave pipes vulnerable, recommending targeted fixes like pipe insulation or sealing gaps to protect your home before winter hits.

We recommend an annual plumbing inspection for most Bronx homes. Our climate, with its freezing winters, and the age of many local properties make yearly checks a smart investment. This regular schedule allows us to catch minor issues—like a slowly degrading hose or a small leak near a pipe joint—before they escalate into major emergencies like burst pipes or flooding, saving you time, stress, and money on repairs.
