Plumbing problems are an interruption to your daily life\u00a0or business operations, so it’s natural to just want that problem fixed, with everything back to normal and to be done with it.\u00a0 But after a repair is the perfect time to prevent future problems and save some money. \u00a0If you live in San Diego County, and use ASAP Drain Guys & Plumbing, our well-trained technician is already there, so why\u00a0 not have them go ahead and make sure that there are no other problems getting ready to rear their ugly heads.<\/p>\n
A building’s plumbing system may not have all the moving parts of a major appliance or vehicle, but that doesn’t mean that you can ignore it.\u00a0 Experts recommend a plumbing inspection every 3 to 4 years, even if there have been no problems requiring repair.\u00a0 They\u00a0also suggest having\u00a0the sewer line cleaned every few years, especially for commercial buildings.<\/p>\n
An experienced plumber can spot many potential problems with just a quick visual inspection.\u00a0They will be on the lookout for visible\u00a0leaks, signs\u00a0of\u00a0hidden leaks\u00a0(moisture, lime deposits, water stains…), and corrosion, check that valves are working, and inspect the hot water heater burner, pressure release,\u00a0and venting.<\/p>\n
Interesting Fact:<\/strong>\u00a0 Did you know that some 10% of American homes have small leaks that result in $100 or more in wasted water each year?<\/p>\n Our in-pipe video cameras let us inspect the inside of your drain pipes and sewer lines.\u00a0 We’re primarily looking for accumulating grease and grime as well as tree roots that will sooner or later cause a complete clog and perhaps even a sewage backup.\u00a0 We’ll also be on the lookout for cracks, corrosion, and other issues that may lead to big problems later.<\/p>\n It’s not at all uncommon to have a hidden water leak and not even know about it.\u00a0 Hidden inside a wall, above the ceiling, or under the concrete floor slab, even small leaks gradually cause more and more damage. Beyond discoloration and mold, that can include damage to the wood framework structure of your home or business.\u00a0 An un-repaired slab leak can lead to uneven settling of the building, that in turn can cause cracks in the floor and walls with big repair expenses.<\/p>\n We can perform a quick and sensitive pressure test to determine if any leaks are present.\u00a0 If they are, we can then track down their exact location.<\/p>\n We value our customers, and our reputation.\u00a0 You can count on us for an objective appraisal of anything we find.\u00a0 We’ll discuss their nature and significance so that you can make an informed decision.\u00a0 With your approval, we’re already there to provide our full line of plumbing services.<\/p>\n If you’re not on a scheduled maintenance plan, then\u00a0a plumbing repair is also a\u00a0good time for preventive maintenance services.\u00a0 That’s the key to avoiding major problems.<\/p>\n For homes it’s basically an inspection, plus water heater service.\u00a0 Beyond a burner and safety check, draining and flushing the hot water heater will clear deposits from inside the tank and increase the lifetime of your heater.\u00a0 That also\u00a0improves efficiency, saving energy while providing more hot water.<\/p>\n Commercial plumbing fixtures and drains are subject to much heavier use, so our commercial plumbing maintenance adds regular drain inspection and cleaning, adjustment and maintenance of flushing mechanisms, and more.\u00a0 We’ll take the conditions and usage of your particular facility into account and can propose a custom plan that provides the best value. \t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Plumbing problems are an interruption to your daily life\u00a0or business operations, so it’s natural to just want that problem fixed, with everything back to normal […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":11164,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[45,46,47,48,49,50],"class_list":["post-11163","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-blog","tag-plumbing-maintenance","tag-plumbing-repairs-san-diego","tag-plumbing-tests","tag-preventive-maintenance-plumbing","tag-san-diego-plumbing-inspection","tag-san-diego-plumbing-maintenance"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asapdrainandplumbing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11163","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asapdrainandplumbing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asapdrainandplumbing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asapdrainandplumbing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asapdrainandplumbing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=11163"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.asapdrainandplumbing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/11163\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asapdrainandplumbing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/11164"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.asapdrainandplumbing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=11163"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asapdrainandplumbing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=11163"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.asapdrainandplumbing.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=11163"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}Sewer Line and Drain Inspection<\/h2>\n
