About Walton Heating & Plumbing in Queens, NY

Our thorough plumbing inspection assesses your entire system. We check for leaks, test water pressure, inspect pipes for corrosion or hard water buildup, examine fixtures and water heaters, and ensure all gas lines and connections are secure and up to code. For older Queens homes, we pay special attention to pipe integrity and potential violations. This detailed check-up helps prevent major issues and provides a clear picture of your plumbing's health.

The combination of hard water and aging pipes is common here and can lead to two main issues. First, mineral deposits from hard water can severely restrict water flow and damage appliances. Second, old pipes, especially galvanized steel, are prone to corrosion and leaks from the inside out. We recommend a professional inspection to assess the scale buildup and pipe condition. Solutions can range from installing water softeners and targeted drain cleaning to partial or full pipe replacement with more durable materials like copper or PEX.
