Your plumbing system works together as one system throughout your home or business. If one thing goes wrong, your whole system can go down!

Some plumbing issues may be too obscure for you to see. Maybe a leak may be concealed beneath your floor or behind a wall. That’s why getting a plumbing inspection is crucial. Plumbing issues can be caught and repaired quickly, saving you money and preserving your property's well-being.

If you live in Rochester, NY, and would like to schedule preventive maintenance or repairs and get a professional plumbing check-up free of charge, contact Mr. Rooter Plumbing!

Reasons You Should Have Your Plumbing Inspected

Buying or Selling a Property

When buying or selling a home, a home inspection is standard. Unless this inspection is completed by a plumbing professional, the inspection only consists of checking to see if the drains, toilets, and taps work. You should hire a licensed plumber to do a complete inspection of the property. A professional will check all plumbing systems, sewer lines, and all other aspects of your home's plumbing are working properly.

To Avoid a Plumbing Emergency

A comprehensive plumbing inspection can diagnose and repair small problems before they become big emergencies! Let a licensed plumber find a small leak before you end up with water damage to your home, or find a sewage issue before you have to rip up your yard.

Spend A Little, Save A Lot

According to the EPA, small household leaks can add up to gallons of water lost every day. It’s absolutely worth the money you spend hiring a professional plumber to do a comprehensive plumbing inspection. It can save you money on bills and save you from the bill you’ll get in the event of a plumbing emergency.

Hiring A Plumbing Professional Is the Guaranteed Way to Protect Your Home

A Plumbing Professional Can Spot Things That You Cannot

Licensed plumbers have access to equipment that the average property owner does not. After a visual inspection of the water, sewer, and water heater systems is complete, a camera inspection will be performed. The camera can see inside plumbing systems to diagnose issues that may not be seen from above. Clogs can be located, underground sewer lines can be checked for cracks, and so much more!

Creating Maintenance Plans

Create a maintenance plan with your plumber to ensure your property is regularly inspected. Mr. Rooter Plumbing of Rochester provides maintenance plans for residential and commercial buildings. This plan can include priority scheduling, preferential pricing, periodic specials, and more. Learn more about the benefits of the Mr. Rooter® Plumbing Advantage Plan®.

DIY Is Not Always Foolproof

Sure, knowing how to handle small plumbing issues is common among property owners. You might have the right tools on hand and an instructional video, but that doesn’t mean your plumbing will be fixed properly. When your licensed plumber comes to perform an inspection, make sure to disclose any DIY fixes you have performed on your plumbing so it can be inspected.

Yes, You Should Get A Plumbing Inspection!

The final decision is yours, but it is highly recommended to get a plumbing inspection. It’s especially important to get one done before you buy or sell a property, so you don’t end up with a major bill down the line. A plumbing inspection will save you money and the headaches that come with plumbing emergencies. A licensed plumber has the tools and experience to do the job more efficiently than an amateur with duct tape.
