Why Plumbing Tests Are Essential During Foundation Repairs

Foundation repairs, such as lifting or leveling a home’s concrete foundation, can place significant stress on your plumbing system. The shifting and movement of the foundation can lead to serious plumbing issues, including:

Pipe Misalignment: Pipes may shift or become misaligned, causing blockages or reduced water flow.
Leaks: Stress on pipes can cause cracks or joint failures, leading to water or sewer leaks.
Sewer Line Damage: Foundation movement can damage underground sewer lines, resulting in costly repairs.
Water Pressure Issues: Changes in pipe alignment can affect water pressure, impacting appliances and fixtures.

Our Plumbing Pre-Test and Post-Test services help identify and address these issues, preventing expensive repairs and ensuring your plumbing system remains reliable.

Plumbing Pre-Test: Before Foundation Repairs

The Plumbing Pre-Test is conducted before a foundation repair company begins work on your home. This thorough inspection establishes a baseline for your plumbing system’s condition and identifies any existing issues that could worsen during foundation repairs. Our professional plumbers follow these steps:

Visual Inspection: We examine accessible plumbing lines, fixtures, and connections for signs of wear, corrosion, or damage.
Pressure Testing: We test water pressure to ensure pipes are functioning correctly and identify any weak points.
Leak Detection: Using advanced tools, we check for hidden leaks in water and sewer lines.
Sewer Camera Inspection: A high-resolution camera is used to inspect underground sewer lines for cracks, blockages, or misalignments.
Detailed Report: We provide a comprehensive report of our findings, including recommendations for any necessary repairs before foundation work begins.

Plumbing Post-Test: After Foundation Repairs

The Plumbing Post-Test is performed after the foundation repair company completes the lifting or leveling process. This test verifies that your plumbing system has not been compromised during the repairs. Our plumbers follow these steps:

Post-Repair Visual Inspection: We re-examine plumbing lines and fixtures to check for new damage or changes caused by the foundation work.
Leak Detection: We perform another round of leak detection to confirm no new leaks have developed.
Sewer Line Re-Inspection: We use a sewer camera to verify that underground lines remain intact and functional.
Final Report: We provide a detailed report comparing pre- and post-test results, highlighting any issues and recommending solutions.
