Questions and Answers
How can a plumbing inspection help prevent problems with my old Wheaton home's pipes?
A thorough plumbing inspection from Ward Young Plumbing allows us to proactively assess the condition of your pipes. We can identify early signs of corrosion, mineral buildup, or weakening joints common in older Wheaton homes. Catching these issues early helps prevent sudden leaks, water damage, and more expensive repairs down the line, giving you peace of mind.
My garbage disposal keeps jamming. Is this a common issue in Wheaton, and what should I do?
Yes, frequent garbage disposal jams are a common call we receive from Wheaton homeowners. Often, this is due to a combination of older disposal units and habits like putting fibrous or starchy foods down the drain. We recommend avoiding potato peels, celery, and coffee grounds. If it's already jammed, don't use chemical drain cleaners. Call us for a safe, expert clearing and we can advise if a newer, more powerful model might be a better long-term solution for your home.
What exactly do you check during a standard plumbing inspection for a local residence?
Our Wheaton-focused plumbing inspection is comprehensive. We check water pressure for signs of pipe constriction, inspect visible pipes for corrosion or leaks, test all fixtures and drains for proper flow, examine the water heater for age and efficiency, and assess the main sewer line for potential blockages or damage. This gives us a complete picture of your system's health, specifically looking for issues prevalent in our area.
