Frequently Asked Questions

How often should I schedule a plumbing inspection for my home? Most plumbing professionals recommend annual inspections for homes with older plumbing systems or homes over 15 years old. Newer homes may only need inspections every 2-3 years unless you notice warning signs like low water pressure, unusual noises, or unexplained water bill increases.

What warning signs indicate I need a plumbing inspection soon? Schedule an inspection if you notice persistent odors near drains, gurgling sounds from fixtures, water pressure changes, wet spots on walls or ceilings, or unexplained increases in your water bill. These symptoms often indicate hidden problems that require professional evaluation.

How long does a comprehensive plumbing inspection take? A thorough whole-house plumbing inspection typically takes 2-4 hours depending on your home’s size and plumbing complexity. This includes testing all fixtures, checking the water heater, inspecting visible piping, and conducting any specialized tests like sewer camera inspection.

What should I do to prepare for a plumbing inspection? Clear access to your water heater, main water shutoff, and any exposed plumbing in basements or crawl spaces. Make a list of any plumbing concerns you’ve noticed, and ensure our technician can access all bathrooms, the kitchen, and laundry areas during the inspection.

Do plumbing inspections include checking for code violations? Yes, our inspections identify potential code compliance issues with current installations. While we don’t enforce building codes, we can advise you about installations that may not meet current standards and could affect home sales or insurance coverage in the future.

Incredible service. We have had a sewer vent pipe issue causing an awful smell in our house. Another plumbing company didn't properly diagnose this issue. I called Pike, and wow, they got a plumber out the same day who assured me it was fixable and had the smell gone withing 2 hours. He identified the defective fitting that was allowing sewer gas to escape and showed me how it was defective. He then changed the type of connection to one that was more appropriate. Honest, fair price, efficient work, professional communication. I highly recommend !

Pike crew did an excellent job, part of the problem I had was caused by a mistake I made replacing a fill valve that cross threaded a connecting tube. Pike Plumbing team spotted this immediately and fixed it as well as a loose connection. Excellent job by real professionals! Going forward I will use Pike Plumbing for all our plumbing needs and am very pleased to leave a 5 star Google review.

Had to replace my water heater and found that Pike Plumbing was the first to respond and showed up on time with knowledgeable and honest professional plumbers. They took a look at my water heater, provided me my options to fit my budget and ended up Replacing my twelve year old tank with a new one at a competitive price. The summary of this story was they were first to respond, showed on time, they were professional and replaced my unit with a competitive price and did not take advantage of my immediate need to replace the unit. I would highly recommend Cody and his apprentice out of Granite Falls, WA for any of your plumbing needs. Sincere thanks!
