About McClure Company in State College, PA

Our plumbing inspection includes checking your outdoor faucets (hose bibs) for proper winterization. We ensure the shut-off valve inside your home is working correctly and that the faucet is drained to prevent residual water from freezing and bursting the pipe. This simple, proactive check is crucial for State College winters and can save you from costly spring repairs.

Laundry hoses are under constant pressure and can degrade over time, leading to sudden bursts that cause significant water damage. During our inspection, we examine the condition of your washing machine supply hoses for bulges, cracks, or rust. We often recommend replacing standard rubber hoses with reinforced stainless steel braided hoses, a simple upgrade that greatly enhances safety for your State College home.

Our thorough inspection is a preventative health check for your home's plumbing. We systematically examine key areas prone to local issues: testing water pressure, checking for leaks at fixtures and appliances, inspecting visible pipes for corrosion, and assessing the condition of valves and connections for your water heater, washing machine, and outdoor faucets. You'll receive a clear report on any concerns and our expert recommendations.
