About DeMattia Plumbing in Jenkintown, PA

Our Jenkintown plumbing inspection includes a specific check of all outdoor faucets and supply lines. We look for proper insulation, test shut-off valves, and ensure there are no leaks or cracks that could trap water. If we find a vulnerability, we can repair it or install a frost-free hose bib, which is highly recommended for our local climate to prevent burst pipes and expensive water damage come winter.

Absolutely. Low water pressure in Jenkintown homes is often due to hidden issues like mineral scale buildup in pipes, corroded galvanized lines common in older homes, or a partially closed valve. Our detailed inspection uses specialized tools to assess your entire system's flow rate, check for blockages, and pinpoint the exact location and cause of the pressure drop, so we can provide a targeted, effective solution.

We recommend a professional plumbing inspection at least once a year, ideally in the fall before freezing temperatures set in. This timing allows us to winterize your outdoor plumbing and address any pressure issues before the holiday season. It's also a good idea after any major plumbing work or if you notice sudden changes in your water system's performance. Think of it as preventative maintenance for your home.
