About Kairos Services in Winston-Salem, NC

Winston-Salem's clay soil expands and contracts with moisture, which can shift and stress your home's underground plumbing pipes. A specialized plumbing inspection from Kairos Services checks for signs of this movement, like cracks, leaks, or misalignments, before they cause major damage or sewer backups. It's a proactive step to safeguard your foundation and avoid costly repairs common in our area.

A faulty sump pump is a leading cause of local basement flooding. Our electrical inspection verifies that your sump pump is on a dedicated, properly grounded circuit with a GFCI outlet. We check for correct wiring, ensure the backup system (if present) is functional, and test the pump's operation. This helps prevent electrical failures that could leave your basement unprotected during heavy rains.

Beyond the electrical components, our inspection assesses the sump pump itself. We check for proper installation in the pit, verify the discharge line is clear and directs water away from your foundation, and listen for unusual noises indicating wear. Given the local prevalence of sump pump issues, we also evaluate the float switch and overall pump condition to ensure it's ready to handle Winston-Salem's weather.
