A residential plumbing inspection is a thorough assessment of your plumbing system's condition, health, age, performance, and efficiency. We recommend that all homeowners get a plumbing inspection before we begin plumbing repairs or other plumbing services. A plumbing diagnosis and inspection give us the most information possible about where your plumbing issue originates from, the underlying cause, and how serious it is. This information is crucial in determining how we should proceed. After completing a residential plumbing diagnosis and inspection, we can give you our professional recommendation as to which plumbing services and plumbing repairs you need. We may recommend plumbing maintenance like drain cleaning, rooter work, or hydrojetting services. For more serious problems, we may recommend pipe relining, plumbing replacement, or new plumbing installations.
How We Complete a Plumbing Diagnosis and Inspection
We begin our residential plumbing inspections with a thorough visual assessment of your plumbing systems, fixtures, and appliances. We will inspect your faucets, spigots, pipes, valves, caulking, water heater, sinks and toilets, and drains. We will look for signs of damage, corrosion, leaks, warping, degradation, and other problems. Next, we’ll conduct a plumbing video camera inspection. We will insert a small, waterproof camera into your drains and pipes to get real-time information about their condition. We will check for signs of debris, buildup, clogs, cracks and leaks, tree root intrusions, insects and rodents, and more. Once we’re done, we can provide our professional residential plumbing diagnosis. We will walk you through our plumbing inspection checklist and thoroughly explain everything we found. We will then make recommendations for plumbing services that will fix problems, extend the lifespan of your plumbing, make your plumbing more efficient, and help you avoid bigger problems down the road.
