Why a Plumbing Inspection is Critical for Your Addison Home
Out of sight should not mean out of mind. Hidden issues within your plumbing can lead to thousands of dollars in water damage, mold remediation, and emergency repair costs. The most expensive plumbing problem is the one you didn't see coming.
Addison's Hard Water: Our local water is rich in minerals that build up inside pipes and fixtures, reducing water flow and causing premature failure of appliances like your water heater.
Older Housing Stock: Many beautiful homes in our area have aging pipes and systems that are more susceptible to corrosion and leaks.
Freeze-Thaw Cycles: Illinois weather puts immense stress on pipes and outdoor faucets, creating cracks and weaknesses that can lead to leaks.
Basement Flood Risk: Heavy spring rains and snowmelt make a fully functional sump pump not a luxury, but an absolute necessity.
Annual Checkups Save Money: A professional inspection once per year allows us to catch small issues before they become expensive disasters and perform crucial preventative maintenance.
More Than a Home Inspector: Our licensed plumbers conduct a much more detailed, technical evaluation than a general home inspection. We test pressures, inspect internal components, and diagnose issues others would miss.

Our Comprehensive Whole-Home Plumbing Inspection
Our maintenance visit is not just a quick look-around; it's a detailed, systematic evaluation of your home's entire plumbing system. We provide you with a full "Home Health Report Card" detailing our findings.
Critical Systems We Inspect
We perform a comprehensive evaluation of the most important components of your plumbing system—the ones that can cause catastrophic damage if they fail.
At Principle Plumbing, we check for hidden issues that could lead to thousands of dollars in water damage, mold remediation, and emergency repair costs.
What We Check:
- Water Heater: Check for leaks and corrosion, test the T&P safety valve, inspect anode rod in tank heaters, check for error codes in tankless units.
- Sump & Ejector Pumps: Clear debris from pit, test float switch and check valve, test battery backup system to ensure it's ready for power outages.
- Water Pressure Test: Perform static PSI test to ensure pressure is within safe range (45-65 PSI). Inspect Pressure Reducing Valve (PRV).
- Main Water Shutoff: Locate, label, and test your home's main water shutoff valve—critical for preventing catastrophic damage in emergencies.
These critical systems protect your home from flooding, water damage, and system failures. Trust Principle Plumbing to keep them in top condition.
Fixtures, Appliances & Safety Checks
We inspect every fixture and connection point in your home to catch small leaks and wear before they become major problems.
Our licensed plumbers have the technical expertise to evaluate every component of your complex plumbing system and provide you with actionable recommendations.
COMPLETE FIXTURE INSPECTION:
- All Toilets: Check for leaks between tank and bowl, inspect base seals, check for "ghost flushing" that wastes water and money.
- Sinks & Showers: Inspect all faucets for leaks and corrosion, check drain speed, inspect under-sink plumbing (P-traps, supply lines, angle stops).
- Appliance Hoses: Inspect washing machine hoses for bulges and cracks—one of the most common causes of major home floods.
- Gas Connections: Visually inspect accessible gas lines to appliances for signs of wear, ensuring your family's safety.
- Outdoor Faucets: Check outdoor hose bibs for leaks and ensure they're properly prepared to prevent freezing and bursting during winter.
YOUR HOME HEALTH REPORT CARD:
After our inspection, we provide a clear, easy-to-understand report prioritizing: Safety Issues (immediate attention), Recommended Repairs (likely to fail soon), and Items to Monitor (showing age but functional).
With Principle Plumbing, you get transparent, flat-rate pricing for any repairs you choose to approve, empowering you to make informed decisions about your home's health.
Compare Your Water Heater Upgrade Options
Upgrading doesn't just mean getting a like-for-like replacement. Modern technology offers significant improvements in performance and efficiency. Explore your options and find the perfect solution for your home.
