Home Plumbing Checkups
A Porchside home plumbing checkup reviews accessible fixtures, shutoffs, supply connections, visible piping and the water-heating area. It is a practical maintenance visit—not a formal property inspection or guarantee against concealed problems.
What this can include
Practical help, scoped to your home.
- Visible leak and fixture review
- Accessible shutoff checks
- Supply-line observations
- Water-heater area review
- Visible piping-material notes
- Prioritized maintenance discussion
Good to know
Home checkups questions.
Clear general guidance, with the important details confirmed at your home.
Is this the same as a certified home inspection?
No. It is a plumbing-focused review of accessible components by a journeyman plumber. It does not replace a full property inspection and cannot evaluate concealed piping without access.
Can I combine a checkup with small repairs?
Often, yes. Send Ethan a list in advance so he can discuss priorities, likely parts and appropriate scheduling.
