Reliable Plumbing Company in Lapeer, MI 48446 - Cooper & Son Plumbing

Our thorough plumbing inspection specifically checks for pipes in uninsulated areas like crawl spaces, attics, and along exterior walls—common in many Lapeer homes. We identify pipes at high risk for freezing, recommend proper insulation solutions, and ensure your home's heat is circulating effectively to vulnerable areas. This proactive step before winter can prevent the costly damage and inconvenience of burst pipes.

Lapeer's weather patterns make a reliable sump pump essential. Our inspection tests the pump's operation, checks the discharge line for clogs or freezing points, verifies the backup power system (if present), and ensures the pit is clear of debris. We assess its capacity for our local water table and heavy rains. A faulty sump pump is a leading cause of basement flooding here, so this inspection provides vital peace of mind.

Absolutely. Beyond frozen pipe risks and sump pump function, our inspection examines water pressure for consistency common in older neighborhoods, checks for signs of corrosion in pipes, and assesses water heater efficiency and safety—especially before cold seasons. We look for slow drains that could indicate root intrusion from local trees or other blockages, helping you address small problems before they become major repairs.
