Stats on Preventing Plumbing Issues in Durham

No one likes plumbing surprises, which is why regular inspections are so valuable, especially in older homes. Nationwide, statistics show that each year, about 1 in 60 insured homes files a water-damage claim (from leaks or burst pipes), yet less than 20% of homeowners take preventive steps to avoid such issues. A comprehensive plumbing inspection is a smart way to catch problems early. During an inspection, our experienced plumbers will check all your visible pipes, fixtures, water heater, and drains for signs of trouble: leaks, corrosion, improper installations, etc. We’ll also test your water pressure and make sure safety devices like shut-off valves and PRVs (pressure reducing valves) are functioning. In Durham’s climate, we pay attention to things like outdoor spigots (ensuring they’re frost-protected) and crawl space pipes (proper insulation). If we find anything amiss—perhaps a small pinhole leak or an outdated flex hose—we’ll inform you and can fix it before it turns into a costly repair. Regular inspections give you confidence that your plumbing meets current codes and is ready to handle everyday usage, saving you from emergency repairs down the road.

Keeping Your Plumbing in Good Working Order

When there’s an issue with your plumbing, never ignore the first sign of the problem. Even a small leak can have a huge impact on your home and your family. Some issues may be minor inconveniences, and then there are other problems that may be more extensive and possibly cost thousands of dollars to fix or replace.

Expert Tips

Regular plumbing inspections are crucial to prevent costly repairs and ensure the smooth functioning of your plumbing system. As an expert in plumbing inspections in Durham, NC, I advise homeowners to schedule annual inspections to catch any potential issues early on. Additionally, be proactive in checking for signs of leaks, such as damp spots or water stains, and address them promptly. Remember, investing in preventive maintenance now can save you from major headaches and expenses down the line.
