About Pitsch Plumbing & Heating in Akron, OH

Our Akron plumbing inspections include a thorough camera scan of your kitchen drain lines. We look for the telltale buildup of grease and food particles that are common in our area. By identifying this early, we can perform a professional hydro-jetting or mechanical cleaning to clear it before it causes a complete blockage and backup into your sink. Regular inspections are the best defense against messy, disruptive kitchen clogs.

Keep an eye out for damp spots on walls or floors, musty odors, or slow-draining floor drains—common signs in Akron basements. During our plumbing inspection, we specifically check your sump pump operation, test floor drains, and examine the main sewer line for cracks or root intrusion that can lead to flooding. We'll also assess your downspout drainage away from the foundation, a critical step given our local soil and rainfall patterns.

Many Akron homes have older plumbing systems that are more susceptible to the grease clogs and basement water issues common here. Our inspection doesn't just look at visible pipes; we use specialized equipment to assess the condition of hidden lines, joints, and connections. This helps us spot corrosion, bellies in sewer lines, or inadequate grading that could lead to backups or flooding—issues we see regularly in older neighborhoods. It's a proactive way to protect your investment.
