Hancock Street Plumbing and Heating - Detroit's Local Plumbing Repair

Our comprehensive plumbing inspection includes a detailed check of your sump pump—the most critical defense against Detroit's heavy rains. We test the pump's operation, check the discharge line for clogs or freezing risks, and inspect the pit for debris. This proactive service identifies wear, faulty switches, or inadequate capacity before a storm hits, giving you peace of mind and preventing costly water damage to your basement.

For persistent slow drains in older Detroit homes, a simple cleaning often provides only temporary relief. Our professional plumbing inspection uses a camera to see inside your pipes. We can identify the root cause, like mineral buildup from hard water, sagging sewer lines, or invasive tree roots common in our area. This allows us to recommend the precise, long-term solution—whether it's hydro-jetting, spot repair, or a liner—saving you money on repeated temporary fixes.

Our Detroit-focused inspection is tailored to local issues. We thoroughly examine key areas: checking all drains for flow and signs of buildup, inspecting the main sewer line for bellies or root intrusion, testing water pressure, looking for leak signs around water heaters, and, crucially, evaluating the sump pump system and its backup. We provide a clear report with photos or video, prioritizing any problems that could lead to emergencies, so you can plan repairs wisely.
