Whole-Home Plumbing Inspection in Katy — Know What’s Working Before Something Doesn’t
Most plumbing problems don’t announce themselves until they’ve already become expensive. A slow leak behind a wall, a water heater quietly corroding, or a drain line with early root intrusion — these are the things a professional inspection catches before they turn into emergencies. Ory’s Plumbing Services is the family-owned team Katy homeowners have trusted since 1995, and we’re licensed (MPL 41229), fully insured, and committed to giving you a straight answer about what we find.
We serve Katy, Cinco Ranch, Cross Creek Ranch, Kelliwood, Fulshear, and surrounding West Houston communities. Upfront pricing. Same or next-day scheduling. No hidden fees.
📞 (281) 829-9828Full Pipe & Fixture Inspection
We walk through every accessible area of your home — under sinks, in utility rooms, around the water heater — checking visible pipes, connections, valves, and fixtures for wear, corrosion, or improper installation.
Water Pressure & PRV Testing
High water pressure is one of the most common causes of premature fixture failure and pipe stress in Katy homes. We test your static pressure and check the condition of your pressure-reducing valve, flagging any readings outside a safe range.
Water Heater Condition Check
We inspect your tank or tankless water heater for sediment buildup, anode rod condition, corrosion, and improper venting. We’ll tell you where it stands and what — if anything — needs attention. No pressure to replace what doesn’t need replacing.
Drain & Sewer Line Assessment
We test drain flow at every fixture and look for signs of slow lines, blockage, or root intrusion. If something warrants a closer look, we can deploy our sewer camera to see exactly what’s happening inside the line.
Leak Detection Scan
Hidden leaks cause more damage the longer they go unnoticed. We check supply line connections, inspect for moisture indicators, and look for signs of slab or wall leaks — using acoustic and visual detection methods before recommending any invasive work.
Written Findings & Clear Estimates
At the end of every inspection, you get a plain-language summary of what we found, organized by urgency, with upfront pricing for anything that needs attention. You decide what to act on and when — we’re here to inform, not pressure.

Plumbing Inspection FAQs — Katy, TX
How long does a whole-home plumbing inspection take?
Most inspections take between one and two hours depending on the size of your home and the number of fixtures and systems involved. We take the time to be thorough rather than rushing through a checklist.
What does a whole-home plumbing inspection cover?
We inspect all visible supply and drain pipes, fixtures, shutoff valves, the water heater, water pressure, drain flow, and accessible areas where plumbing runs. If we see something that warrants a camera inspection inside a drain line, we’ll let you know and quote it separately.
Should I get a plumbing inspection before buying a home in Katy?
Yes — especially for older homes in established Katy neighborhoods where original cast iron drain lines and aging water heaters are common. A pre-purchase inspection gives you a clear picture of what you’re buying and what may need attention in the near term.
How often should Katy homeowners schedule a plumbing inspection?
Most plumbing professionals recommend every two to three years for newer homes, and annually for homes over 20 years old or those with a history of plumbing issues. Katy’s hard water and clay soil conditions can accelerate wear on pipes and fixtures compared to other regions.
What happens after the inspection — do I have to fix everything right away?
Not at all. We’ll give you a written summary organized by urgency — what needs immediate attention, what to monitor, and what’s in good shape. You decide what to address and when, with upfront pricing for any work you do choose to move forward with.
If you’re not sure what shape your home’s plumbing is in, a whole-home inspection is the clearest way to find out. Our licensed team will walk through your system, document what we find, and give you a clear, upfront estimate for anything that needs attention — no pressure, no surprises.
