Common Questions
What is involved in a professional plumbing inspection from Schmolck?
Our comprehensive plumbing inspection is a proactive check of your entire system. Our union-trained technicians examine pipes, drains, fixtures, water heaters, and supply lines for leaks, corrosion, blockages, and pressure issues. We assess the condition of valves and connections and check for proper venting. For homes with wells, we include a review of the pump and pressure tank. This thorough assessment provides a clear picture of your system's health, helping to prevent small issues from becoming costly emergencies.
How does Schmolck prepare for and handle frozen pipes, a common issue in Ketchikan?
We understand that frozen and burst pipes are a serious concern for Ketchikan residents. Our approach is both preventive and responsive. We can inspect your home to identify vulnerable pipes and recommend insulation or heat trace solutions. If you suspect a freeze, our team is trained in safe thawing techniques to minimize damage. Should a pipe burst, our extensive local parts inventory and 24/7 emergency service allow us to respond quickly to make repairs, helping to prevent extensive water damage to your property.
