Excel Plumbing - Edwardsville's Local Plumbing Contractor

Our thorough plumbing inspection includes checking all exposed pipes for proper insulation and identifying areas in your home, like crawl spaces or exterior walls, that are susceptible to freezing Edwardsville temperatures. We can recommend and install specific insulation solutions to protect your plumbing before winter hits, helping you avoid the inconvenience and water damage of a burst pipe.

During a sump pump inspection, we test the pump's operation by pouring water into the pit, check the discharge line for clogs or freezing points (a common issue here), ensure the backup power system is functional, and clean the pit and intake screen. This service is crucial in our area to ensure your pump is ready to handle heavy rains and prevent basement flooding.

Regular inspections are a key part of proactive home maintenance in our climate. They allow us to catch small issues—like a slow sump pump switch or minor pipe corrosion—before they turn into major emergencies like a failed pump during a storm or a sudden pipe leak. This preventative approach saves Edwardsville homeowners time, stress, and money on repairs.
