Plumbing Inspection Services
in Corona

A plumbing inspection helps catch leaks, pressure issues, and worn components early. Your technician will review accessible areas and recommend practical repairs or upgrades based on what they find.

What We Check During
a Plumbing Inspection

• Visible supply lines: corrosion, pinhole leaks, loose fittings, and aging materials.
• Drain and trap areas: under-sink leaks, slow drainage, and signs of recurring clogs.
• Fixtures: faucets, toilets, showers, and tubs for leaks, performance, and worn parts.
• Shutoff valves: main and fixture shutoffs for function, seepage, and accessibility.
• Water pressure: pressure testing and recommendations if pressure is too high or low.
• Water heater connections: visible leaks, valve condition, and basic safety checks.
• Signs of hidden leaks: stains, damp cabinet floors, odors, and water meter activity.
• Problem areas: prior repair spots, repeated leak locations, or known trouble zones.

Common Reasons
to Schedule an Inspection

• Buying or selling a home: Corona’s older neighborhoods carry copper supply lines, aging shutoffs, and hard-water-stressed fixtures that a standard home inspection won’t evaluate in depth. Know the actual condition before you close—or before you list.
• Unexplained water bill increase: In a dry climate like this, slab and underground leaks can run for weeks without any surface sign. A bill spike with no explanation is reason enough to schedule an inspection and leak detection on the same visit.
• Recurring slow drains or clogs: Western Municipal’s hard water leaves scale inside drain lines that builds up over time. If the same drain keeps coming back, an inspection can tell you whether it’s buildup, a structural pipe issue, or something that needs a permanent fix.
• High water pressure concerns: Elevated pressure is common in Corona’s hillside developments and quietly accelerates wear on fittings, fixtures, and appliances throughout the home. An inspection includes pressure testing and a regulator recommendation if needed.
• Planning a remodel: Confirming shutoff function, piping condition, and pressure before work starts prevents mid-project surprises—particularly in homes where the original plumbing has never been evaluated.

Tip: If your water bill jumps without a change in usage, schedule an inspection and consider leak detection. Small hidden leaks can waste a surprising amount of water over time.
