Plumbing Contractor Waterloo NY | Call Koopman & Sons Plumbing & Heating

A professional plumbing inspection by Koopman & Sons includes checking your outdoor faucets (hose bibbs) for proper function and assessing their vulnerability to freezing. We ensure they are properly drained and may recommend installing frost-free hose bibbs or insulating covers, which are crucial preventative steps for our Waterloo winters to avoid burst pipes and water damage.

If you suspect frozen pipes, first turn off the main water supply to prevent potential flooding if a pipe has burst. Then, call Koopman & Sons immediately. Our local team understands the common freeze points in Waterloo-area homes. We can safely thaw pipes using professional methods and conduct a follow-up inspection to check for damage and recommend further insulation to prevent recurrence.

Absolutely. During a routine inspection for Waterloo homeowners, we examine all vulnerable points, including pipes in unheated crawl spaces, attics, and along exterior walls. We also check your water heater's efficiency for the increased demand in winter and look for any pre-existing leaks or corrosion that could worsen in the cold, providing a comprehensive report to keep your system secure.
