What is a Plumbing Inspection?
A plumbing inspection is a thorough examination of the plumbing system. It is meant to identify problems before they become significant issues in your home. The inspection aims to ensure all the plumbing system parts are working.
A plumbing inspection is mostly done for common issues. These are things like sudden high water bills, wetness around sinks or tubs, or mold in your home.
Are you experiencing these common problems? Outsource an expert Harris plumber for a plumbing inspection in your home. It can save you money, time, and more costly repairs in the future.
What Happens During Plumbing Maintenance and Inspection Services?
Here is what happens with plumbing maintenance and inspection services.
Examining the Drainage Lines
Typically, drainage lines take the wastewater away from the home. This function is necessary for the proper functioning of the entire system. While examining the drainage lines, our technicians look for cracks and leaks.
We examine if your drains are free of any debris or blockages. Debris prevents water from flowing when using fixtures in your home. On most occasions, we look for leaking pipes or damaged sections. These issues could cause backups and flooding within your home’s walls. Clogged drains pose a grave danger to the rest of the plumbing system, especially when flushing the toilet, which causes water to pool around the floor or back up within the system.
Inspecting the Water Heater
A water heater is a tank that heats water through an internal pump. Proper water heater plumbing maintenance is an absolute necessity. Without maintenance, the water heater can have problems such as leaks and bursts. Common plumbing issues with the water heater include leaking and corrosion on pipes. These allow dangerous hot water to leak onto the floor.
Checking the Water Supply Lines
Inspection of water supply lines determines potential problems with your home’s plumbing system. Water supply lines carry water from the main to fixtures throughout the house. They are subject to wear and tear. This wear and tear can cause cracks or leaks over time, eventually leading to repair work or replacement of your home’s water supply lines.
Examining Sinks and Toilets
Sinks and toilets are regularly used in homes, but they are subject to causing problems. Many people do not realize that debris can clog pipes behind sinks and toilets. This debris causes a blockage in the home. That blockage then can make flushing and drainage near impossible.
Our team carefully examines sinks and toilets to ensure there are no leaks or clogs. Leaks from sinks and toilets lead to more problems like rising water bills and mold growth.
Inspection of Pipes and Fixtures
Pipes and fixtures include all components. From the water main to individual faucets, toilets, sinks, and other fixtures. Our plumbing experts will check the joints of all pipe fittings for leaks. We use using leak detection fluids. We run fluid through the pipes and then press them until we find the source of the leak. Regular maintenance is important to keep your plumbing system functioning for the year.
Determining the State of the Hose Bibs
A hose bib allows the connection of hoses to fill a pool, wash your car or water your plants. Our trained technician inspects your hose bibs as they are key entry points for pests and pets in your home. It is still possible for pests to find their way into your home through these valves. Even if you have a large yard with a fence.
Checking Your Bathroom and Tub
The bathroom is one of the most critical rooms in many homes. It’s where you take care of your most personal body needs. During plumbing maintenance inspections, Harris will check for leaks. The inspection is essential. Leaking could cause severe damage to your home’s foundation. Checking showers and tubs is important as a breeding ground for mold and mildew. The moisture and heat in your shower or tub provide the perfect environment for mold and mildew to grow.
