Plumbing Company Chesapeake VA | Call Thurman Plumbing

Our plumbing inspection includes a detailed check of all exposed pipes, especially in vulnerable areas like crawl spaces, attics, and exterior walls. We assess insulation levels, identify drafts, and locate any pipes at high risk of freezing. By pinpointing these issues before winter, we can recommend and perform targeted fixes—like adding insulation or heat tape—to significantly reduce the chance of a costly and disruptive pipe burst.

For older homes, our inspection focuses on the condition of your pipes, looking for signs of corrosion, mineral buildup, leaks, or weak spots common in aging galvanized steel or polybutylene systems. We check water pressure, look for slow drains, and assess the overall health of your system. This proactive approach helps us catch small problems before they become major leaks or failures, saving you money and preventing water damage.

Our comprehensive inspection covers all key components: we test all fixtures for leaks and proper function, inspect visible pipes for corrosion or damage, check your water heater for efficiency and safety, assess drain flow and venting, and evaluate shut-off valves for easy access. We provide a clear, written report of our findings and honest recommendations, prioritizing any issues related to our area's common problems like freeze risks or old pipes.
