Cobb Plumbing Company - Memphis's Trusted Plumbing Company

Absolutely. A comprehensive plumbing inspection by Cobb Plumbing checks for the common culprits behind basement water issues in our area, such as cracks in foundation pipes, faulty sump pumps, and overwhelmed drainage systems. By identifying these weak points early, we can recommend repairs or maintenance to direct water away from your foundation, significantly reducing the risk of a flooded basement during our next big storm.

Yes, inspecting outdoor faucets (hose bibbs) is a standard part of our service. That slow drip might seem minor, but in Memphis' climate, it can lead to higher water bills, ice damage in winter, and even foundational moisture problems. During an inspection, we check for worn washers, internal valve issues, and proper shut-off function to fix the leak and prevent water waste and potential damage to your home's exterior.

We recommend a professional plumbing inspection every 1-2 years for most Memphis homes. Given our local issues like shifting clay soil that can stress pipes and seasonal temperature swings, regular check-ups are a smart, preventative measure. It's also wise to schedule one before buying a home or if you notice signs like slow drains, unexplained moisture, or a sudden spike in your water bill.
