Matthews Steve Plumbing: Qualified Plumbing Company Serving Jacksonville, IL 62650

During our thorough plumbing inspection, we specifically test all shutoff valves for proper operation and signs of corrosion or wear, which are common issues in our area. Identifying a weak valve before it fails allows us to replace it proactively, preventing a situation where you can't stop the water flow during a leak or fixture repair, potentially saving you from significant water damage and stress.

We know faulty sump pumps are a major concern for Jacksonville homeowners. Our inspection includes verifying your pump's power source, testing the float switch and discharge cycle, checking the pit for debris, and ensuring the discharge line is clear and directs water well away from your foundation. This proactive check gives you peace of mind before heavy rains hit, helping to prevent a wet basement.

Many serious plumbing problems, like a slowly failing sump pump or a corroding shutoff valve, give little warning before causing major damage. Our inspection acts as a preventative health check for your home's hidden plumbing systems. Catching these local issues early is far more affordable and less disruptive than emergency repairs, protecting your biggest investment—your home.
