About Hernandez Plumbing in North Las Vegas, NV

A professional plumbing inspection by Hernandez Plumbing is the best first step. Our hard water means mineral scale builds up inside pipes, narrowing them over time. During an inspection, we use specialized tools to assess the extent of the buildup in your specific drains. This allows us to determine if a thorough hydro-jetting to clear the scale is needed, or if another solution is more appropriate, saving you from guesswork and ineffective store-bought chemicals.

We conduct a comprehensive check focused on hard water damage. This includes examining faucet aerators and showerheads for mineral blockages, assessing pipe interiors for scale accumulation that restricts flow, and checking water heater efficiency, as sediment buildup is common. For bathroom drains, we specifically look for the layered gunk of soap, hair, and minerals that cause slow drainage. Our inspection gives you a complete picture of your system's health related to our local water.

Absolutely. Even if a drain is fully clogged, our inspection process helps us choose the right solution. We first work to clear the immediate blockage. Then, a key part of our service is using the inspection to see how widespread the mineral buildup is in your other drains. This helps us prevent the next clog from happening by recommending a whole-house solution, like a water softener or a scheduled descaling service, protecting your plumbing long-term.
