About FRP Remodeling in Winston-Salem, NC

Our plumbing inspection focuses on identifying pipes in uninsulated areas like crawl spaces, attics, and exterior walls that are vulnerable to Winston-Salem's occasional freezing temperatures. We check for proper insulation, assess the condition of existing pipes, and ensure your main water shut-off valve is easily accessible and functional. This proactive step allows us to recommend specific, cost-effective solutions to safeguard your home before the cold weather arrives, preventing bursts and extensive water damage.

Faulty sump pumps and the increased use of space heaters during cold snaps put extra demand on your home's electrical system. Our electrical inspection ensures your circuit breakers, wiring, and outlets—especially in basements and utility areas—can handle this load safely. We check for potential fire hazards, outdated wiring, and ensure your sump pump is properly connected to a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) outlet. This preventative measure protects your Winston-Salem home from electrical fires and ensures critical systems work when you need them most.

Given the area's potential for heavy rain and groundwater, a functional sump pump is crucial. Our inspection goes beyond just testing if it turns on. We check the pump's age and capacity, inspect the discharge line to ensure it directs water well away from your foundation, clean the pit of debris, and test the float switch and backup battery system. We also verify the pump is on its own dedicated circuit to prevent overload. This comprehensive check helps ensure your basement stays dry during our region's wet seasons.
