About Real Growth in Providence, RI

Our thorough plumbing inspection includes checking for pipes in uninsulated areas like crawl spaces, attics, and exterior walls—common weak points in Providence homes. We assess your home's vulnerability, identify pipes at risk, and recommend targeted insulation or heating solutions. This proactive step is crucial before winter sets in to prevent the costly damage and inconvenience of burst frozen pipes.

In Providence's historic neighborhoods, sewer lines can be prone to backups from root intrusion, cracks, or bellied pipes due to shifting soil. Our inspection uses specialized cameras to visually inspect the interior of your sewer line from the cleanout to the main city connection. We look for blockages, corrosion, offsets, and tree root damage, giving you a clear picture of your system's health and any needed repairs to avoid messy backups.

Given the age of many homes here, hidden plumbing issues are common. A professional inspection by Real Growth goes beyond a standard home inspection. We perform pressure tests, check water heater age and condition, inspect for polybutylene piping, and evaluate the main water shut-off valve. This gives you, the buyer, a detailed understanding of potential future costs and negotiates from a position of knowledge, ensuring your new Providence home is sound.
