Preventive Plumbing Maintenance

An annual S&S Mechanical plumbing inspection checks water pressure and the pressure-reducing valve, tests main and fixture shutoffs, inspects the water heater, looks for leaks, checks drains and winterizes outdoor fixtures. It catches the small, cheap problems that turn into Northern Nevada water-damage claims.

Why maintenance matters in the high desert

Freeze-thaw cycles, hard water and high static pressure are tough on plumbing. A failed $80 pressure regulator can push 120+ PSI through your home and burst a supply line; an inspection catches it first.

Pair it with a maintenance plan

Our maintenance plans bundle the annual plumbing inspection, water heater flush and priority scheduling with member pricing on repairs.

What the inspection covers

  • Static water pressure and PRV test
  • Main and fixture shutoff valve exercise
  • Water heater inspection and flush
  • Visible supply and drain leak check
  • Toilet flapper and fill valve check
  • Hose bib and backflow winterization

Where we provide this service

Plumbing Maintenance FAQs

How often should I have my plumbing inspected?

Once a year for most homes. Fall is ideal in Northern Nevada so outdoor fixtures can be winterized before the first hard freeze.

What is a safe water pressure for my home?

Between 50 and 70 PSI. Many Reno and Sparks neighborhoods have higher street pressure, which is why a working PRV is important.

Do you offer maintenance for rental properties?

Yes. Property managers can schedule recurring inspections across multiple units.
