Finally being able to save up for your dream house is everyone’s dream come true. You finally have the money and you finally have the perfect house to buy. But could you really say it’s perfect if you still haven’t checked its plumbing system? Do not be deceived by the hardwood floors and vintage-styled window; better check those pipes and faucets to see if you’re getting yourself the right house with the right plumbing system.
In choosing a house, you may ask your agent if you could test out faucets and toilet flush for you to be sure of them working. Is the hot and cold feature of the faucet and showers working? Is the toilet flush doing its job right? Also, check if the sinks and toilets are intact and aren’t wobbly or lose for these signs just scream trouble-in-the-making. Check every nook and cranny for discoloration, soft spots, molds, or mildews for these things suggest leaking somewhere in the house—you better have that fixed before you move in to your dream home. Survey the water heater and see if there are signs or drips or rusting. And, of course, make sure all fixtures aren’t clogged and they drain water quickly and easily. Lastly, make sure your main line is in good condition and isn’t prone to flooding your basement. You don’t want your home to be flooded when rainy seasons come.
Of course, deeper parts of your plumbing can’t be easily seen or observed by you. Only plumbers will know the how the whole plumbing system will work and what possible problems could arise in the condition that the system is already in.
