Plumbing Contractor Scranton PA | Call Walker Jim Plumbing & Heating

During our Scranton-specific plumbing inspection, we check your outdoor faucets (hose bibbs) for proper insulation and drainage. We ensure the shut-off valve inside your home is working correctly and show you how to properly winterize the faucet. This simple preventative step can prevent the pipe from freezing and bursting, saving you from major water damage and repair costs common in our cold Northeastern PA winters.

Absolutely. A key part of our plumbing inspection involves assessing drain flow and using specialized cameras if needed to look for buildup inside your pipes. We can identify the early stages of a grease clog—a frequent issue in Scranton homes—long before it causes a complete backup. Catching it early allows for a much simpler and less expensive cleaning, preventing a messy kitchen emergency.

Our comprehensive inspection for Scranton residents covers the systems most vulnerable to our local climate and common issues. We check all visible pipes for leaks or corrosion, test water pressure, inspect water heaters, examine sump pumps, and assess all faucets and drains. We pay special attention to areas prone to freezing and grease accumulation, providing you with a clear report on your plumbing's health and any recommended preventative maintenance.
