About Ginter Frank Plumbing & Heating in Lansdowne, PA

A professional plumbing inspection from Ginter Frank allows us to use specialized cameras and tools to look deep into your pipes. We can identify early signs of buildup from hair, soap, and minerals common in our local water before they cause a complete clog. This proactive approach lets us clean the line thoroughly and can even spot issues like small cracks or tree root intrusion, saving you from a messy, unexpected backup down the line.

In Lansdowne homes, we most often find that a combination of hair, soap scum, and hard water minerals creates a tough, cement-like buildup on pipe walls. Over time, this significantly narrows the pipe, slowing drainage to a trickle. Our plumbing inspections specifically look for this type of accumulation. We then use professional-grade hydro-jetting or mechanical augers to clear it completely, restoring full water flow and preventing future clogs.

We recommend calling for a plumbing inspection at the first sign of slow drainage. Waiting for a full clog often means the buildup has hardened and may require more intensive work to remove. An early inspection from Ginter Frank can identify the exact location and cause of the slowdown. Addressing it promptly is usually simpler, less costly, and prevents the inconvenience and potential water damage of a complete stoppage in your Lansdowne home.
