Nothing can ruin a day faster than a plumbing breakdown that causes severe damage in your Lubbock, TX home. You may think it will never happen to you, so you put off residential plumbing maintenance, but the threats are real and include several different scenarios:

• A corroded water heater
• A burst washing machine hose
• Failed shutoff valve
• Tree roots or other blockages in your sewer pipe

You can fight back

The best way to prevent damaging plumbing breakdowns like those is regular residential plumbing maintenance by a professional plumber from Armstrong Plumbing, Air & Electric. Our professional plumbing inspections can identify those problems before a catastrophic breakdown happens.

• A thorough inspection can identify water heater issues. Plumbers are trained to spot signs of corrosion, small leaks, or maybe a bulging tank indicating a pending failure.
• Washing machine hoses will be examined closely. Experience makes it possible to spot a weak or soft spot in a hose before it bursts.
• Shutoff valves often exhibit warning signs before they fail. The Armstrong plumber will look at every valve in the house identifying things like corrosion and leaks. Replacing those valves is a small price to pay as part of preventive plumbing maintenance.
• Inspections can often identify whether a slow drain is caused by a local clog or a more serious problem in the sewer pipe. If the problem is in the sewage line a video inspection can locate the issue and determine the best way to make repairs.
