About Hines Plumbing & Heating in Columbus, OH

Absolutely. Our comprehensive plumbing inspection specifically evaluates your home's main drain line, sump pump, and floor drains—common points of failure that lead to Columbus basement floods. We check for blockages, proper grading, and system integrity to identify vulnerabilities before the next heavy rain, allowing for proactive repairs that keep your basement dry.

We use a specialized sewer camera that travels through your line, sending back a real-time video feed. This allows us to visually inspect the condition of pipes for cracks, bellies, root intrusion, or corrosion—common issues with Columbus's older clay or cast-iron lines—without any digging. This precise diagnosis helps us recommend the most effective repair, whether it's a spot repair or a full trenchless replacement.

Our inspection is a full-system health check. We examine water supply lines for leaks and pressure, test all fixtures and drains, inspect your water heater, and critically assess the main sewer line and interior drainage. For Columbus homeowners, we pay special attention to signs of past flooding and sewer line integrity, providing you with a detailed report and prioritized recommendations to ensure your system is reliable.
