About Herring Plumbing in Newton Grove, NC

Our plumbing inspection includes a thorough check of all outdoor faucets (hose bibbs) for winter damage, worn washers, and cracks in the pipe leading into your home. Catching these issues early prevents the slow leaks that can lead to foundation erosion, mold, and wasted water, which is especially important for our older homes in Sampson County.

We test your sump pump's operation by pouring water into the pit, check the discharge line for clogs or freezing points, inspect the check valve, and ensure the power source is reliable. With our region's heavy rains and high water table, a faulty pump can lead to devastating basement flooding. An annual inspection before the wet seasons is a key preventative step.

Be on the lookout for unexplained increases in your water bill, the sound of running water when all taps are off, damp spots in your yard (indicating a buried line leak), or a sump pump that runs constantly or not at all. These are common local indicators that it's time for our expert inspection to find and fix the problem before it escalates.
