A List of What's Included in a Plumbing Inspection in Houston

Why are Plumbing Inspections Important?

Protect Your Home – Even a minor plumbing problem can cause severe damage to your home’s structure and property. It’s these small issues that are most difficult to locate with the untrained eye and, if overlooked, can quickly become a much more significant concern over time. Having a plumbing inspection performed by an experienced plumber can help prevent a plumbing nightmare from occurring.

Save You Money – The damage that can occur from even the smallest of leaks can be costly to repair. Often, it’s not only the structure of the home that gets damaged but personal property like pictures and keepsakes as well. The small investment required to have a plumbing inspection performed is far less than what the repair and replacement of your drywall, floors, and ceilings could cost.

Peace Of Mind – It can be scary when a homeowner first locates a leak and wonders where it’s coming from, not to mention the damage it may have caused. Don’t let leaks get the upper hand and make sure they’re located and repaired quickly by scheduling a routine plumbing inspection. It’s a great comfort for a homeowner to have the peace of mind knowing that their home’s plumbing system is safe and in proper working order.

How Often Should Plumbing Be Inspected?

Plumbing companies commonly suggest that you have a plumbing inspection conducted in your home at least every two years. If your home is older than forty years, and you’ve never had the plumbing replaced, we recommend annual plumbing inspections.

Who Can Inspect My Plumbing?

A plumbing inspection should only be performed by a professional plumbing company with experienced and licensed plumbers. Do some online research about the plumbing company you’re considering and look at their reviews. You can learn a lot about local plumbing companies and their credibility just by reading their reviews on sites like Google, Yelp, and Facebook.

The VIP maintenance Plan is an excellent way for homeowners to not only have a thorough plumbing inspection performed but also a video inspection of your entire sewer line. After checking your sewer line, your Nick’s Plumbing & Air Conditioning technician will locate your home’s main water supply valve, show you where it is and what to do if there’s a leak in your home. We’ll even leave behind a bottle of our BioOne Drain Treatment, which uses natural enzymes (instead of caustic chemicals) to keep your drains clear.
