About Parker's 24 Hour Plumbing in Bowling Green, MO

During our detailed plumbing inspection, we specifically test and assess the condition of all shutoff valves in your home. Many local valves become stiff or corroded over time, making them prone to breaking when you need them most. We identify these weak points, lubricate or recommend replacement, ensuring you have a reliable way to stop water flow during a leak, preventing costly water damage.

Our inspection thoroughly evaluates your sump pump system, which is crucial for our area. We check the pump's operation, power source, float switch, and discharge line for clogs or freezing risks. We also test the backup system if you have one. This proactive check ensures your primary defense against basement flooding is ready, especially before heavy rains common in our region.

We recommend a comprehensive plumbing inspection at least once a year. For older homes in our area or homes with a history of issues like valve failures or sump pump concerns, a bi-annual check is wise. Regular inspections allow us to catch small problems—like a slowly failing valve or a sump pump nearing the end of its lifespan—before they turn into middle-of-the-night emergencies.
