Question Answers
How can a plumbing inspection help prevent sewer backups in my New Orleans home?
A professional plumbing inspection from Mid South includes a camera survey of your main sewer line. In New Orleans, where tree roots and shifting soil are common, this inspection can identify cracks, blockages, or bellies in the line long before a full backup occurs. Catching these issues early allows for simpler, more affordable repairs and prevents the messy and hazardous problem of a sewer backup in your home.
Will a plumbing inspection diagnose the cause of my low water pressure?
Absolutely. Low water pressure is a frequent complaint in our area, often caused by pipe corrosion, mineral buildup, or hidden leaks. Our comprehensive inspection checks your entire system's pressure, examines visible pipes for scale, and uses specialized equipment to listen for leaks within your walls or under your slab. We pinpoint the exact cause—whether it's a city-side issue or within your home's plumbing—and provide a clear plan to restore proper pressure.
What specific things do you look for during a New Orleans plumbing inspection?
Our inspection is tailored for local homes. We check for signs of galvanized pipe corrosion (common in older homes), test water pressure at multiple fixtures, inspect for improper drainage gradients that can lead to backups, and assess the condition of water heaters and shut-off valves. For the sewer line, we specifically look for root intrusion, pipe offsets from soil movement, and signs of deterioration—all critical factors for preventing the major issues we see here in NOLA.
