When summer winds down and the kids are packing up their backpacks, it’s easy to forget that your home deserves a little TLC, too. With everyone getting back into a busy routine, your plumbing system is about to go back into overdrive. From more morning showers to constant dishwashing, the wear and tear can add up fast. That’s why back-to-school season is the perfect reminder to schedule a thorough plumbing inspection.
Why Back-to-School Is Prime Time for a Plumbing Check
Think of it this way: You wouldn’t send your kids to class without their pencils, notebooks, and lunchboxes, right? So why send your home into the school year without making sure your pipes, drains, and water heater are in top shape?
Over the summer, your plumbing probably worked overtime. Maybe you hosted out-of-town guests, filled up the kiddie pool daily, or ran the washing machine nonstop to keep up with summer fun. Those extra gallons of water can stress out older pipes or small leaks you didn’t even know you had.
A professional plumbing inspection will:
✅ Catch Small Issues Before They Grow – A tiny drip today can turn into a major flood tomorrow.
✅ Keep Your Water Bill in Check – Leaks and hidden drips waste money.
✅ Prevent Unexpected Breakdowns – No one wants a cold shower on a school morning!
What Does a Plumbing Inspection Include?
When you call Miller and Sons Plumbing for a back-to-school inspection, our licensed pros don’t just give your pipes a once-over. We check:
✔️ Toilets and sinks for leaks
✔️ Drains for clogs or slow flow
✔️ Water heater for sediment buildup and efficiency
✔️ Pipes for signs of corrosion or damage
✔️ Faucets and showerheads for proper pressure
✔️ Outdoor hose bibs and connections
Bonus: Peace of Mind All School Year Long
Once your plumbing gets a clean bill of health, you can get back to focusing on what really matters — packing lunches, homework help, soccer practice, and maybe, just maybe, that cup of coffee in peace.
So, as you’re checking off your back-to-school shopping list, don’t forget to add “Call the Plumber” to the top. Your pipes — and your future self — will thank you!
