About Furgeson Plumbing & Heating in Petoskey, MI

A professional plumbing inspection allows us to assess the condition of your pipes and identify early signs of buildup, such as slow drainage or minor clogs, before they become a major blockage. We use specialized tools to look for issues like hair, soap scum, and mineral deposits common in our area's water. Catching these problems early saves you from more disruptive and costly repairs down the line.

Our inspection is both diagnostic and corrective. We'll first safely assess why your disposal is jamming—often due to improper items or wear from frequent use. Then, we'll clear the jam, check the blades and motor, and provide a repair or maintenance recommendation on the spot. Our goal is to get your kitchen flowing again quickly and advise on best practices to prevent future jams.

We recommend a professional plumbing inspection annually for most homes. Given our local issues like drain buildup and hard water, this yearly check-up helps us catch small problems early, clean out developing clogs, and ensure your garbage disposal and other fixtures are in good working order. It's a proactive step that can prevent emergency calls, especially during our busy seasons.
