Chris' Plumbing and Remodel | Plumbing Services in Auburn, WA 98198

Our Auburn plumbing inspection specifically checks for vulnerabilities that freeze-thaw cycles exploit, like poor insulation, drafty areas, and exposed pipes in crawl spaces or garages. We identify these weak points before winter hits, so you can take preventative steps to avoid the costly water damage and emergency repairs that come from a burst pipe.

Yes, it's very common here. Auburn's winter temperature swings cause pipes to expand and contract, which can crack seals and fittings on outdoor faucets (hose bibbs). During our inspection, we test all outdoor faucets for leaks and signs of freeze damage, and can repair or replace them with frost-proof models to prevent future problems.

For older Auburn homes, we pay special attention to aging galvanized pipes that are prone to corrosion, the condition of main water shut-off valves, and the integrity of drainage systems. We check for issues that could lead to major leaks or low water pressure, giving you a clear picture of your system's health and a prioritized plan for any needed updates or repairs.
