How Often Should I Schedule a Plumbing Inspection?

Most homeowners benefit from a professional plumbing inspection once a year. Annual checkups can catch small issues early and help prevent emergencies. Olympic Plumbing Technology includes yearly inspections with our Legend Membership plan.

Is a Plumbing Inspection Necessary if My System Seems Fine?

Yes — many plumbing problems develop quietly behind walls or underground. A routine inspection can uncover hidden leaks, corrosion, or code issues before they become costly. It’s a smart way to protect your home and wallet.

Do You Offer Plumbing Inspections for Home Sales?

Absolutely. We provide pre-sale inspections that identify concerns buyers or real estate agents might flag during closing. Our reports give sellers the chance to fix problems in advance and add value to their listing.

What’s Included in a Plumbing Inspection?

We check all visible piping, fixtures, water heaters, drains, and connections. We also test water pressure and may use cameras to inspect underground lines if needed. You’ll receive a detailed summary and expert recommendations based on what we find.

Should You Schedule a Plumbing Inspection? Watch for These Signs

A plumbing inspection isn’t just for emergencies — it’s one of the best ways to protect your home from future problems. At Olympic Plumbing Technology, we help homeowners spot potential issues before they turn into expensive repairs. Here are scenaroios in which you might need a plumbing inspection:

Buying or Selling a Home: An inspection gives you peace of mind and can reveal costly problems before closing.
Frequent Clogs or Backups: Repeated drain issues may signal deeper blockages or aging pipes.
Inconsistent Water Pressure: Pressure fluctuations often point to hidden leaks or pipe buildup.
Old or Unknown Plumbing Materials: Homes with galvanized or polybutylene piping may be overdue for evaluation. Especially if your home was built between 1940 – 1970, you could have Orangeburg piping which tends to fail before its stated lifespan and can cause BIG problems for your plumbing system.
Unexplained Water Damage or Mold: Hidden leaks and moisture buildup often require a full-system inspection.
Annual Home Maintenance: Preventive inspections can extend the life of your plumbing and reduce long-term repair costs.

I recently had a leaking outside water spigot that I couldn’t fix on my own so I decided to shop around and find a reliable plumbing company to assist me. Olympia Plumbing Technology in Olympia Wa. Answered the call. The technician I worked with was named Morgan who was absolutely professional and knowledgeable about the job! Morgan explained in great detail the job he would perform to fix my leaky spigot which lead to cutting into drywall to repair a poorly installed pipe during the home construction. As Morgan worked he explained the why’s on what he was doing and made sure I completely understood the issue and how he was going to fix it! After the job was over Morgan left the work area like his company was never there. Because of his hard work and professionalism I am recommending Olympia Plumbing Technology to all my family and friends! I would highly recommend this company to anyone looking for an outstanding plumbing service! Joe

Rafael was incredibly professional, very patient and left our washroom plumbing looking immaculate and functioning better than ever. We got same day assessment and fix, which was awesome. My experience was that this professional plumber was notably courteous and worked efficiently to take some 100 year old plumbing and make it modern functioning. What a blessing. Thank you Rafael. He a joy to work with.
