Michael Downing Plumbing Company | Plumbing Services in New Orleans, LA 70181

Our plumbing inspections include checking your water heater for early signs of corrosion, which is common here due to our humid climate and mineral content in the water. We examine the anode rod, tank condition, and connections to catch problems before they lead to leaks or failure, potentially saving you from costly water damage and premature replacement.

For kitchen grease clogs common in our cooking-heavy culture, we recommend scheduling a professional plumbing inspection. During the inspection, we assess your drain lines for grease buildup and can perform hydro-jetting or mechanical cleaning to clear existing blockages. We'll also advise on best practices like using grease traps and avoiding pouring fats down drains to prevent future issues.

Preventative inspections are especially valuable in New Orleans because they help address local-specific issues like water heater corrosion and grease clogs before they cause major damage. Our inspections identify weak points in your plumbing system, allowing us to make repairs or recommendations that extend the life of your fixtures and prevent unexpected emergencies in our humid environment.
