About Chavez Plumbing & Heating in Alamosa, CO

A professional plumbing inspection includes a thorough check of your sump pump system. We'll assess the pump's operation, the condition of the discharge line (which can freeze or clog in our climate), and the integrity of the pit and check valve. Identifying wear, minor clogs, or installation issues before the next big storm or spring thaw can prevent a costly basement flood, giving you peace of mind.

During a drain inspection, we use specialized cameras to visually inspect the interior of your pipes. In Alamosa, we commonly find issues like grease buildup, mineral deposits from hard water, or invading tree roots. This allows us to pinpoint the exact location and cause of a clog or restriction without guesswork, enabling us to recommend the most effective and long-lasting solution, whether it's hydro-jetting, snaking, or other repair methods.

We recommend an annual plumbing inspection for most Alamosa homes. This yearly check-up is especially important before winter to ensure pipes and sump pumps are prepared for freezing temperatures, and again in spring to assess any damage from freeze-thaw cycles. For older homes or properties with known issues, bi-annual inspections might be advisable. Regular inspections help catch small problems early, saving you money and hassle from major repairs down the line.
