About Steven Lewis-Unlicensed Contractor in Newbury Park, CA

Copper pipes in our local water can corrode over time, leading to pinhole leaks and reduced water pressure. My inspection specifically looks for the blue-green stains, flaking, or thinning sections that signal this common local issue. Catching it early allows for targeted repair or a planned pipe replacement, preventing sudden leaks and water damage inside your home.

In our seismic area, I check for rigid pipe connections that could snap, unsecured water heaters that could tip, and the overall condition of your main water line. The goal is to identify points where shaking could cause a major leak. I can then recommend specific, cost-effective reinforcements like flexible connectors or strapping to help your plumbing system withstand tremors.

I provide a thorough, visual and functional assessment of your home's plumbing system. This includes checking for leaks, testing water pressure, inspecting visible pipes for corrosion or damage, and evaluating fixtures and drains. I document my findings in clear, plain language to give you a complete picture of your system's health and any recommended next steps, which you can then discuss with a licensed plumber for any required repairs.
