Our comprehensive inspection specifically checks the critical components that often fail in our area. This includes testing your sump pump's operation and float switch, inspecting all main and fixture shutoff valves for corrosion or leaks, and assessing drainage to prevent basement or crawl space flooding. It's a proactive step to avoid the water damage many local homeowners experience.

A broken shutoff valve can turn a simple leak into a major crisis, requiring you to shut off water to the entire house. During our inspection, we test every accessible shutoff valve—for sinks, toilets, and the main water line—ensuring they turn smoothly and seal completely. If we find a valve that's stiff, corroded, or leaking, we can replace it before it fails, saving you from potential flooding and costly repairs.

We recommend a professional inspection every 1-2 years. Given our local soil conditions and weather extremes that can stress pipes and components, annual checks are wise for older homes (20+ years). This regular maintenance is the best way to catch issues like a sump pump nearing the end of its lifespan or a weakening valve before they cause damage during our next big rainstorm.
