Yes. You get a written report after every plumbing inspection — findings in plain language, sorted into what needs attention now, what to plan for, and what is fine, with pricing on anything recommended.
What the Report Includes
- Findings by system — supply lines, drains, water heater, fixtures, shutoff valves, and gas connections
- Measurements, not just impressions: water pressure reading, water heater age, and pipe material identification
- Priority sorting — immediate concerns, items to plan for, and things in good shape
- Pricing on recommended work, so nothing arrives as a surprise later
- Photos of significant findings where useful
- Camera footage if a sewer inspection was part of the visit
Why the Priority Sorting Matters
An inspection that lists twenty items without ranking them is not useful — it either panics you or gets ignored. What you actually need to know is which two things to handle this month, which three to budget for this year, and which fifteen are fine. That is how we write it.
Why a Written Record Is Worth Having
It documents your system’s condition at a point in time, which matters for insurance claims, warranty coverage that requires documented maintenance, and home sales. It also gives you a baseline — comparing this year’s report to last year’s shows what is changing, which is far more informative than any single snapshot.
No Commission Pressure
Our technicians are not paid on ticket size, so the report reflects what the inspection found. If your system is in good shape, the report says so.
What Typically Shows Up in Albuquerque
Hard water scale, corroded shutoff valves, water pressure out of range, aging galvanized supply pipe, unflushed water heaters, and root intrusion in sewer laterals where mature trees are present.
What to Do With It
Address the immediate items, budget the near-term ones, and keep the report to compare against next year’s. Care Club members get inspections on a schedule.
