Why Plumbing Inspections Matter

Even minor plumbing issues can develop into major headaches — hidden leaks, corrosion, water damage, or deteriorating pipes can lead to costly repairs, mold growth, or structural damage. A full plumbing system inspection helps uncover these issues early, ensuring your home’s plumbing is safe, efficient, and compliant with local codes. Regular inspections also help maintain property value and give homeowners peace of mind.

What’s Included in Our Plumbing System Inspection

Leak Detection & Water Testing
We examine all visible pipes, joints, faucets, fixtures, and water heaters for signs of leaks, drips, or moisture. If needed, we perform pressure testing and water quality checks to ensure your water is safe and your system isn't losing water.
Pipe Condition & Materials Review
We assess the condition and age of your plumbing pipes, looking for signs of corrosion, rust, hard water damage, or outdated materials (like galvanized steel or polybutylene). Where necessary, we make recommendations for replacement before failure occurs.
Drainage & Vent Inspection
We check all drains, sewer lines, vents, and traps to verify flow, check for clogs or blockages, correct venting, and ensure there is no backflow risk that could damage plumbing or indoor air quality.
Water Heater & Fixture Inspection
We inspect your water heater (tank or tankless), its connections, pressure relief valve, temperature settings, and anode rod where applicable. Fixtures—sinks, toilets, showers—are tested for leaks, proper operation, and efficient flow.

Signs You Need a Plumbing System Inspection

Some issues are obvious—dripping faucets, stains, low water pressure. Others are subtle—unexplained water bills, musty smells, and gradual drops in pressure. If you notice any of the following, it’s time to call for an inspection: frequent leaks, inconsistent water temperature, unusual sounds in pipes, slow drainage, or water discoloration.

Our Process & What to Expect

BOOK YOUR IN-HOME CONSULTATION

You schedule an appointment at your convenience. Our plumber arrives, reviews your plumbing layout, and discusses any concerns you may have.

DETAILED INSPECTION
AND ASSESSMENT

We inspect all pipes, fixtures, water heater, drains, vents, and perform any needed tests (pressure, flow, etc.). We document findings and take photos of issues when helpful.

TRANSPARENT REPORT AND RECOMMENDATIONS

After inspection, you receive a detailed report of our findings, with clear, prioritized recommendations for repairs, replacements, or preventive action—complete with cost estimates.

MAINTENANCE AND FOLLOW-UP

We’ll walk you through maintenance best practices—how to care for fixtures, what to avoid putting down drains, when to replace parts—and provide service options to maintain your system’s health.

Plumbing Inspection FAQs

How often should I have my plumbing system inspected? +
Most homes benefit from a professional inspection every 1–2 years. Older homes, high-use households, or properties with outdated piping (e.g., galvanized or polybutylene) may need more frequent checkups to catch leaks, corrosion, or wear before they become costly repairs.
How much does a plumbing inspection cost? +
Basic whole-home inspections typically range from $150–$350, depending on home size and scope. If specialized testing (e.g., pressure tests, camera inspections) is recommended, we’ll review options and pricing up front so you can decide with confidence.
Does an inspection mean I have to make repairs right away? +
No. Your plumber provides a detailed report with prioritized recommendations. You choose what to address now versus later. Our goal is to help you plan and avoid emergencies—not to pressure you into repairs you don’t want.
Will the inspection disrupt my daily routine? +
Inspections are designed to be minimally invasive and usually take about 1–2 hours. We’ll need access to areas like the water heater, main shutoff, under-sink cabinets, and (if applicable) crawlspace. Routine use of sinks and toilets is rarely interrupted.

Plumbing Inspection Checklist

Check incoming water pressure. Excessively high pressure can cause premature failure of the system.
Test and verify proper operation of all shut off valves
Inspect water heater. Early identification of small problems can help prevent catastrophic failures and significant water damage, as well as help extend the service life of your water heater
Inspect all plumbing fixtures for proper operation
Inspect all visible drain components under sinks for signs of existing or previous leaks
Inspect all toilets for proper flushing and signs of leaks including testing of tank seals. Small amounts of water continually "leaking" from the tank to the bowl can go virtually undetectable during daily use leading to high water bills.
Inspect all bathtubs/showers for proper operation
Inspect all hose bibs (outdoor spigots) for proper operation
Inspect any existing water filtration units for signs of existing or previous leaks
Our licensed Plumber will conduct a multi-point inspection of your plumbing system and focus on any concerns or requests you may already have. Once completed, you will be provided with a copy of the results, including any maintenance, repair, or replacement recommendations.

The Technicians Matthew Willard and Michael Moore did a great job. They were very professional and fast. I had my old gas furnace replaced and an air conditioning unit installed. Everything looks great. 4 days later and the AC is keeping the house nice and cool. The electrical installation looks good too but I didn’t get to meet the electrical technicians because I left for work. I think that their names were Armando and Justin. Thank you, home comfort.

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ I can’t say enough good things about Home Comfort Alliance and, in particular, Kelly Robblee and Michael Hanson. Home Comfort Alliance installed a new furnace in our home in late 2024/early 2025. This May, we discovered that our electric sauna no longer had power. Because we rarely use it, we hadn’t noticed the problem sooner. I contacted Home Comfort Alliance thinking the sauna circuit may have been disconnected during the electrical work associated with the furnace installation. I honestly wasn’t sure what kind of response I’d get given how much time had passed, but they took my concern seriously and sent Kelly and Michael to investigate. They quickly traced the problem and discovered that Home Comfort Alliance hadn’t caused it at all. A completely different contractor who installed our electric car charger had taken the power from the sauna circuit. Here’s the part that really impressed me: even after determining that it wasn’t their responsibility, Kelly and Michael offered to fix the problem for us anyway. That is exceptional customer service. They were professional, knowledgeable and thorough, and there was never any attempt to brush off our concern or pass the problem along once they discovered someone else had caused it. It’s easy to give a company five stars when everything goes perfectly. I think you learn much more about a company by seeing how they respond when a customer comes to them with a problem. Kelly, Michael and Home Comfort Alliance exceeded my expectations. This is exactly the kind of company you want to do business with, and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend them.

This along with Tom’s experience produced a practical project at a competitive price. I have confidence that the installation will go well and perform well.

He walked me through the functions of the new thermostat so I would understand how it operates. I was very pleased with the services provided.

I’ve had heating and cooling maintenance done by this company ever since my system was installed, and I want to give special recognition to the technician, Torfin (Tor). He really knows his stuff and was much more thorough than the other technicians who have serviced the system. Tor found a part that was starting to fail just before my warranty was set to expire. I only wish he had been sent out sooner, because the issue could have been discovered and fixed earlier. Thankfully, the company was able to honor the warranty for both parts and labor. Thanks to Tor for being so thorough and knowledgeable!

Todd and the crew at Home Comfort Systems have been very professional. When the project required additional return to be installed and which was missed in the original quote, they graciously included that at no additional charge. They definitely care about customer satisfaction and serve in the best interest of the customer.
