Mike Mesrop Plumbing | Plumbing Services in North Hollywood, CA 91606

Earthquakes can cause subtle shifts that stress pipes underground or within your slab foundation, leading to slow leaks or future failures. Our detailed plumbing inspection uses specialized cameras and pressure testing to assess the integrity of your entire system, pinpointing cracks, loose fittings, or corrosion that might not be visible. This proactive check is crucial for catching minor earthquake damage early, preventing costly slab leaks or major water damage down the line.

Given our area's soil composition and seismic activity, slab leaks are common. Key signs include unexplained increases in your water bill, the sound of running water when all fixtures are off, warm spots or damp areas on your floor, or cracks in your foundation or walls. If you notice any of these, it's important to schedule a plumbing inspection promptly. We can locate the exact source of the leak using electronic amplification equipment to minimize invasive digging and repair it efficiently.

A standard home inspection often doesn't cover the detailed condition of plumbing lines beneath the slab. In North Hollywood, where historical earthquake activity and aging infrastructure are factors, a specialized plumbing inspection is a wise investment. We examine the main sewer line, water supply pipes, and look for evidence of past leaks or improper repairs. This gives you a clear picture of potential future issues like slab leaks, helping you make an informed decision and avoid unexpected, expensive repairs after moving in.
