Plumbing Inspection & Check-Up in Greenville, SC

Your Home’s Plumbing Should Just WORK

Plumbing problems don’t always make a big entrance. Most of the time, they sneak in quietly. A slow drip here, a little corrosion there… nothing that feels urgent until it suddenly is. If you don’t know what to look for, those small signs can stick around for months (or longer) before turning into a bigger mess.

A plumbing check-up helps you stay ahead of it all! We’ll take a close look at your home’s plumbing system so you’re not caught off guard later. We make it easy to keep your home in great shape!

What's Included in a Plumbing Check-Up?

This check-up includes a LOT.

We’ve seen what plumbing problems can do to a home, and we don’t wanna see that happen to yours. That’s why we take our time and check as much as we can.

Here are the five main things we’ll look at:

  • Main Water Shut-Off

    If a pipe bursts or something starts flooding your home, you’ve gotta act fast. That’s where your main water shut-off comes in.

    We’ll locate it, test it, and make sure it’s easy to access. If you’re not sure where it is, we’ll walk you through it so you’re ready if anything ever happens. While we’re there, we’ll also check your water pressure to make sure it’s not too high or too low. Both can cause bigger issues down the road.

  • Water Heater Basics

    Hot water is something you count on every day, whether it’s for showers, dishes, or laundry. We’ll take a close look at your water heater to make sure everything’s working like it should.

    That includes checking for leaks, corrosion, and safe operation. We’ll also look at temperature settings, gas connections (if applicable), and carbon monoxide safety.

  • Pipes and Visible Leaks

    We can’t see every pipe in your home, but we can inspect the ones that are accessible.

    We’ll check under sinks, in crawl spaces, and anywhere else we can see exposed piping. We’re looking for corrosion, active leaks, and any signs of water damage that might spell trouble for you later if it’s not taken care of.

  • Toilets

    Toilets don’t usually get much attention… until they stop working right.

    We’ll run a dye test to check for hidden leaks, test how each toilet flushes, and make sure the seal at the base is holding up properly. Catching small issues here can save you from bigger repairs later.

  • Hose Bibs and Outdoor Faucets

    Your plumbing doesn’t stop at the front door, so we’ll check up to two outdoor faucets or hose bibs, too.

    We’ll test for leaks, make sure everything’s secure, and check for an anti-siphon device. These help keep your water supply clean by preventing backflow. If one’s missing, we’ll let you know.

Plumbing Inspection FAQs

How often should I have a plumbing inspection?

Most homes should have a professional plumbing inspection every two years, though older homes or those over 40 years old benefit from annual inspections. Homes with mature trees nearby may also need more frequent checks due to root intrusion risks.
 

Can an inspection find hidden leaks?

Yes, plumbers use specialized tools like thermal imaging and acoustic detection to locate leaks behind walls or under slabs that aren't visible to the naked eye. A simple water meter test can also confirm if your system is actively losing water.
 

What are the most common problems found?

Common findings include corroded pipes, failing shutoff valves, water heater issues, slow drains, and hidden leaks causing water damage or high water bills. Dry P-traps and sewer gas odors are also frequently identified during inspections.
