Q&A

How can a plumbing inspection help prevent a laundry hose burst in my Detroit home?

A professional plumbing inspection by Dobson includes checking all appliance connections, including your washing machine hoses. We assess them for wear, cracks, or bulging—common issues that lead to sudden bursts and major water damage. For Detroit homes, where these problems are frequent, our inspection provides an early warning, allowing us to replace a weak $20 hose before it causes thousands in flood damage to your floors and basement.

With Detroit's older municipal pipes, what does your inspection look for inside my home?

Aging city infrastructure can lead to issues like sediment, pressure fluctuations, and corrosive water entering your home. Our inspection specifically checks for the telltale signs: we examine your water pressure, look for corrosion on pipes and fixtures, and test for sediment buildup in your water heater and aerators. Identifying these issues early helps us install protective solutions, like pressure regulators or whole-house filters, to safeguard your plumbing from external problems.

I'm worried about hidden leaks. What does a Dobson inspection cover to find them?

Hidden leaks, often behind walls or under slabs, are a major concern that can waste water and cause structural damage. Our comprehensive inspection uses specialized tools like moisture meters and, if needed, acoustic listening devices to detect the sound of running water within pipes. We also meticulously check water meter readings and inspect areas like toilet flappers and under sinks for silent leaks, giving you a complete picture of your home's plumbing health and preventing surprise water bills or mold issues.
