Whole-house plumbing inspection
Every angle stop and supply line, every toilet, every trap and visible drain, the hose bibs, the main shutoff exercised, and water pressure checked. You get photos and a written report.
Home Protection Membership for Venice-Area Homes
One scheduled visit a year. $249. Catch the small stuff before it floods the house.
Most plumbing emergencies in Venice don’t start as emergencies. They start as a weeping angle stop, a water heater nobody has flushed in six years, a toilet that runs when no one is listening.
The Home Protection Membership is one scheduled visit a year to find those while they’re still small, plus real savings when something does go wrong. It costs $249 a year for one home.
What’s Included Every Year
Water heater flush with anode inspection
Sediment flushed, elements and thermostat tested, anode rod inspected where accessible, install date and condition documented. One tank water heater is included.
Water treatment check
If you have a softener, carbon filter, or reverse osmosis system, we test hardness before and after, check salt and bypass, test the regeneration cycle, and log filter and membrane dates.
In-home water test
Hardness, chlorine, and TDS at the tap, so you know what's actually coming out.
Member Benefits All Year
After-hours fee waived, twice a year
The $179 after-hours and weekend dispatch fee is waived on up to two calls per membership year. You pay for the repair, not for the clock.
10% off repairs
Applies to repair work at your home. Does not apply to drain cleaning, whole-house repipes, bathroom remodels, or water treatment equipment.
Priority scheduling
Members are scheduled ahead of non-member calls.

Snowbird Add-On — $199 per Season
For seasonal homes. Two visits, so your house is closed and opened by a plumber instead of by luck.
Before you leave: water heater flushed and breaker off, main closed, washer valves closed, traps protected against evaporation, and photos sent to you.
When you come back: controlled restart, full flush of all lines, a walk-through, and a meter check.

Questions
The Fine Print
Home Protection Membership is $249 per year for one residential property and begins the day payment is received. The membership fee is non-refundable. Membership renews annually by payment link; an unpaid renewal lapses on the anniversary date. The annual visit is scheduled at a mutually agreed time during normal business hours, Monday through Friday, and must be used within the membership year; an unused visit does not carry over. One tank water heater flush is included; additional tanks are billed at the member rate. Anode inspection where accessible. Tank flush is subject to the condition of the drain valve and relief valve on older heaters; we will tell you before we touch anything that could fail. Water treatment check applies to homes with installed treatment equipment. The 10% member discount applies to repair labor and materials at the membership address and excludes drain cleaning, whole-house repipes, bathroom remodels, and water treatment equipment; it cannot be combined with other offers. The after-hours and weekend dispatch fee is waived on up to two calls per membership year at the membership address; repair work on those calls is billed at standard rates less the member discount. Priority scheduling means members are scheduled ahead of non-member calls; it is not a guaranteed arrival time. Membership is not a warranty and does not cover the cost of repairs or parts. The Snowbird Add-On is $199 per season, requires an active membership, and its two visits are scheduled on weekdays with at least one week of notice.
