Our plumbing inspections proactively identify vulnerable points in your system, like uninsulated pipes in attics, crawl spaces, or exterior walls. We check for drafts, proper insulation, and the condition of shut-off valves. By addressing these issues before winter hits, we can help you significantly reduce the risk of the costly damage and inconvenience caused by frozen and burst pipes.

During an inspection, we thoroughly examine your garbage disposal unit for wear, check the blades for sharpness and obstruction, and assess the motor's health. We also inspect the connecting drain lines for buildup or partial blockages that can lead to jams. Our goal is to ensure everything is in proper working order and to provide tips on what not to put down the disposal to keep it running smoothly.

We recommend a professional plumbing inspection at least once a year for most homes. This annual check-up is especially important before winter to safeguard against frozen pipes. For older homes in our area or if you've experienced recurring issues, scheduling inspections every six months can provide extra peace of mind and help catch small problems before they escalate.
