Plumbing is one of the most important components to a home including sewer pipe lines, septic tank, water supply, hot water system, stormwater gutters and downpipes, internal fixtures, sinks, pipes, taps, toilets, showers, baths and laundry. Common plumbing problems include tree root infiltration into the storm water drain or sewer line which causes blocked drains and can lead to collapsed pipes, leaking taps, leaking drain pipes and leaking water pipes, low water pressure, inadequate surface water drainage, water damage and pipe corrosion to name just a few.

A Pre-Purchase Plumbing Inspection is a comprehensive report that inspects with detail every aspect of home plumbing, photos to show condition of plumbing, DVD video of CCTV Drain Camera inspection in stormwater line and sewer line. With a Plumbing Inspection report in hand you now have peace of mind and have a bargaining tool if there are problems with the plumbing. 96% of Plumbing Inspections carried out indicate some sort of problem with the plumbing system.
