Your Family’s Trusted Go – To Plumber
A friend bought a house in Farmers Branch without getting the plumbing inspected. Moved in and within a month had a sewer line backup, water heater leak, and a burst pipe. Thousands in repairs that could have been negotiated during purchase if they had known ahead of time.
Plumbing inspections find existing and potential problems. It is far better to know about issues before they turn into emergencies.
For thorough inspections, we run cameras through sewer and drain lines.
This finds problems you cannot see, like root intrusion, cracks, bellies, and blockages forming.
Video recording shows exactly what is going on. No guessing.
When buying a home, a plumbing inspection should happen during your option period.
Regular home inspectors look at plumbing but are not specialists. They miss things.
