Plumbing Contractor Slidell LA | Call Eric Jones Plumbing

During a plumbing inspection, our technicians thoroughly check your water heater for signs of sediment buildup, anode rod depletion, and early corrosion—all common issues in our area's water. We'll assess the pressure and temperature settings, which if incorrect, can accelerate corrosion. By catching these problems early, we can perform maintenance like flushing the tank or replacing the anode rod, significantly extending your water heater's life and preventing leaks or failures.

Shutoff valves in Slidell homes can fail due to age, mineral deposits from our water, or simply lack of use. A broken valve means you can't quickly stop water flow during a leak, leading to potential water damage. Our detailed plumbing inspection includes testing every shutoff valve in your home—under sinks, behind toilets, and at the main water line—for proper operation. If we find a valve is seized or leaking, we can replace it on the spot, restoring a critical layer of protection for your home.

For Slidell homes, we focus on problem areas. We check the water heater's condition and connections for corrosion, inspect all visible pipes for discoloration or moisture, and test every shutoff valve for smooth operation. We also examine water pressure, which if too high, stresses valves and fittings, and look for signs of past leaks that might indicate underlying issues. This targeted approach helps us create a maintenance plan tailored to your home's specific needs in our local environment.
