Plumbing Repair Erie PA | Call Dwyer Dennis Plumbing & Excavating

A professional plumbing inspection from Dwyer Dennis involves a systematic check of your entire system, including pressure testing and visual assessment of accessible pipes. For Erie homes, we specifically look for the telltale signs of corrosion, mineral buildup, and small leaks common in older galvanized or cast iron pipes. This allows us to pinpoint weak joints or sections before a major failure occurs, saving you from costly water damage.

In Erie's older housing stock, temperature fluctuations and years of wear often cause pipe joints to loosen or corrode. Our most common fix involves carefully replacing the compromised joint section with modern, durable materials and proper sealing techniques. For a lasting repair, we assess the condition of the connected pipes to ensure the new joint won't be immediately stressed by other failing sections nearby.

First, check your water meter; note the reading, avoid using water for two hours, then check again. Any change indicates a leak. Also, listen for running water when all fixtures are off and monitor your water bill for unexplained increases. These simple checks help us focus our inspection. Then, call us—we'll use specialized equipment to locate the exact leak without unnecessary excavation, saving you time and disruption.
