Question Answers
What should I expect during a plumbing inspection for my older Seattle home?
Our inspection is thorough and tailored to historic homes. We check for common local issues like old pipe integrity and potential moss root intrusion in sewer lines. We'll assess your water pressure, look for signs of rust or leaks, and evaluate your fixtures and heating systems to ensure everything is safe, functional, and efficient, providing you with a clear, prioritized report.
My sewer line is draining slowly. Could it be moss roots, and can you help?
Yes, moss root intrusion in sewer lines is a frequent issue in our area due to Seattle's climate. As a Seattle-listed sidesewer specialist, we can diagnose the problem using a plumbing inspection, which often includes a camera line inspection. We then provide solutions to clear the roots and discuss options, like pipe lining, to help prevent future blockages.
Do you work on older heating systems like boilers and furnaces?
Absolutely. With Bruce's certification as a Seattle Grade 3 Steam Engineer and Gas Mechanic, servicing older boilers and furnaces is a core part of our business. We perform detailed inspections, perform necessary repairs, and can advise on upgrading to more efficient systems that maintain the character of your home while improving comfort and reducing energy use.
