Plumber Southfield MI | Call Dun-Rite Plumbing & Sewer Svc

Our Southfield plumbing inspection includes a check of all exterior faucets (hose bibbs) for proper shut-off valves and insulation. We identify if your faucet is a frost-free model and test it for leaks that can trap water and cause freezing. Based on our findings, we can recommend and install solutions like insulated covers or replace the unit with a code-compliant frost-free faucet, a common upgrade for Michigan homes.

First, always turn off the power. Never use your hands. You can often use a special hex key (usually provided) to manually turn the impellers from the bottom to dislodge the object. For persistent jams or unusual noises, it's best to call us. During a plumbing inspection, we check the disposal's alignment, connections, and motor health, and we can advise on proper use and whether an upgrade to a more powerful model is needed for your household.

We recommend two key times: early fall, before freezing temperatures hit, to winterize your pipes and outdoor faucets, and early spring, to check for any freeze damage or leaks that may have developed. An inspection at these times helps you tackle our area's specific seasonal challenges—like freezing faucets—proactively, saving you from emergency repairs and costly water damage.
