About Goof House in Pittsburgh, PA

Our comprehensive plumbing inspection includes a detailed evaluation of your sump pump system. We check for proper installation, test its operation, inspect the discharge line for clogs or freezing risks common in our climate, and ensure the backup battery is functional. This proactive check can identify wear, debris blockage, or mechanical issues before they lead to a failure during the next heavy rain, helping to prevent basement flooding.

Laundry hose bursts are a frequent cause of water damage in Pittsburgh homes. Over time, rubber hoses can weaken, bulge, or develop cracks. During our inspection, we examine your washing machine supply hoses for signs of wear, aging, and mineral buildup. We strongly recommend and can install braided stainless steel hoses, which are far more durable and resistant to bursts, providing peace of mind and protecting your home from a sudden, costly leak.

While focusing on Pittsburgh's common problems, our whole-house inspection also checks for other local concerns. We look for signs of pipe corrosion common in older homes, inspect water heater anode rods and pressure relief valves, and check for improper drainage around floor drains. This holistic approach ensures we identify any potential issue that could lead to water damage, helping you maintain a safe and dry home.
