Frequently Asked Questions

How can a plumbing inspection help prevent basement flooding in my Smilax home?

A professional plumbing inspection from Lewis Plumbing & Electric proactively checks your home's drainage system, sump pump, and foundation for vulnerabilities. In Smilax, where soil and water table conditions can lead to flooding, we identify issues like cracks, blockages, or pump failures before they cause water damage, giving you peace of mind and potentially saving you from a major cleanup.

What are the signs of root intrusion in my sewer line, and how is it found during an inspection?

Common signs in Smilax include slow drains, gurgling toilets, and recurring clogs, especially in older homes near mature trees. During our plumbing inspection, we use a specialized sewer camera to visually inspect the line from the inside. This allows us to pinpoint exactly where tree roots have breached the pipe, so we can recommend the most effective repair, such as hydro-jetting or a targeted spot repair.

Why is a professional inspection recommended before buying an older home in the Smilax area?

Older homes in Smilax often have aging clay or cast iron sewer lines that are susceptible to root intrusion and deterioration. A pre-purchase plumbing inspection from Lewis Plumbing & Electric gives you a clear picture of the sewer and water system's condition, uncovering hidden issues that could lead to expensive repairs like basement flooding. It's a smart investment to avoid unexpected problems after you move in.
