Christopher Lewis Plumbing - Detroit's Reliable Plumbing Repair

Faulty sump pumps are a common issue in our area. We can diagnose the problem, which is often a stuck switch, clogged intake, or motor failure. Many times, a repair is possible. If a full replacement is needed for an older unit, we install reliable, high-capacity pumps suited for Detroit's basement conditions and can also add a battery backup system to ensure protection during power outages.

Dishwasher leaks can stem from the appliance itself or the plumbing connections. We'll inspect the supply line, drain hose, and the connection at the sink's garbage disposal or drainpipe—common points of failure. If the leak is from a loose fitting, worn seal, or faulty installation in the plumbing lines, we can repair it on the spot. If the issue is internal to the dishwasher, we can advise you on the next best step.

A thorough plumbing inspection for an older home includes checking water pressure, looking for leaks or corrosion in pipes, testing all fixtures and drains, inspecting the water heater, and assessing the main sewer line. Given Detroit's aging infrastructure and common issues like sump pump failures, this inspection can identify small problems before they become major emergencies, like basement flooding or pipe bursts, saving you significant money and stress.
