FAQs
How can a plumbing inspection from MacDonald-Miller help prevent a storm drain blockage in my Portland home?
Our plumbing inspection includes a detailed assessment of your home's main drain line and exterior storm drains. We look for early signs of root intrusion, sediment buildup, or pipe deterioration—common causes of blockages in our area. Identifying these issues early allows us to perform preventative cleaning or recommend repairs before the next heavy rain, helping you avoid basement flooding and costly emergency calls.
What does your electrical inspection cover, and why is it important for Portland homeowners with older houses?
Our electrical inspection thoroughly evaluates your panel, wiring, outlets, and grounding systems. In Portland's many older homes, outdated wiring can be a fire hazard and may not support modern appliances safely. We check for overloaded circuits, faulty breakers, and insufficient GFCI protection, especially in damp areas like laundry rooms, to ensure your home's electrical system is safe, up to code, and reliable.
During an inspection, how do you check for risks of a laundry hose burst, and what's your recommended solution?
We inspect your washing machine's water supply hoses for wear, bulges, or loose connections—a frequent cause of water damage. Given the hard water in parts of Portland, hose integrity can degrade faster. We often recommend replacing standard rubber hoses with braided stainless steel burst-proof hoses as a simple, cost-effective upgrade during our inspection to provide peace of mind and prevent a messy, damaging flood.
