Sometimes we get emergency calls \u2013 serious emergencies \u2013 from people who had no idea of the threat. Yet, in almost all these cases, the \u201cpre-disaster\u201d signs were everywhere. At least to a trained plumber.<\/p>\n

Things like soaked ceilings that fall, bulging walls that spill themselves into living rooms, or uncooperative toilets, blocked drains, flooded basements\u2026 you name it, we\u2019ve seen it go from a cheap repair to an expensive nightmare.<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. Test your toilets:<\/strong> This could be \u201cdye-testing\u201d for cracks, flusher inspection, or anything that tips us off to a hidden problem. You don\u2019t want a failure here, I promise.<\/li>\n
  2. Inspect faucets for leaks:<\/strong>\u00a0No need to put up with that water-wasting nuisance.<\/li>\n
  3. Check washing machine hoses:<\/strong> These are a serious threat since this isn\u2019t a \u201ctrickle\u201d\u2026 it\u2019s an indoor flood.<\/li>\n
  4. Inspect sink piping and garbage disposal:<\/strong> You spend a lot of time here, so let\u2019s make sure this is working well and will continue to for a while.<\/li>\n
  5. Test water pressure:<\/strong> Sometimes it\u2019s a supply problem, sometimes a simple calcium problem with a super-easy fix.<\/li>\n
  6. Check water heater temperature:<\/strong> No need to have either a cold or scalding shower. We can easily adjust it while we\u2019re there.<\/li>\n
  7. Check burner, pilot light\/heating element in your water heater:<\/strong>\u00a0A malfunction here can be inconvenient at best\u2026 lethal at worst. Have this checked.<\/li>\n
  8. Check drains:<\/strong>\u00a0Don\u2019t fall for the expensive \u201cdrain rebuild\u201d that some may recommend\u2026 we have a method that can speed up your drains almost instantly.<\/li>\n
  9. Inspect exposed water lines:<\/strong> These can get cut, frozen, or develop leaks that can turn into \u201cyard ponds\u201d that do more damage over time.<\/li>\n
  10. Test and tag emergency shutoffs:<\/strong>\u00a0Just knowing this can help you and your family know what to turn off if a pipe bursts. (This is worth the trip to us\u2026 and to you.)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    How many people in these emergencies say, \u201cGosh, I wish I\u2019d known how to prevent this before now?\u201d Almost everyone. Most can be avoided with an inspection that alerts you and gives you peace of mind about your home investment. A plumbing inspection in your Arlington, Alexandria, or Fairfax home can extend your comfort and could stop a costly disaster.<\/p>\n
