Plumbing Inspection in Oklahoma

Across the 39 Oklahoma towns we route calls in, 22% of owner households moved in during 2018 or later. Every one of those sales came with an inspection, and every one of those inspections excluded the same list of things.

PresalePipe is a referral service, not a contractor or a home inspector. We connect homeowners and buyers with independent contractors. Contractors are required to hold whatever credential their state or municipality demands. Every state page sets out who licenses plumbers there and where to check, so you can confirm before work begins. We carry out no inspections and no work, we do not set prices, and we never charge homeowners anything — the contractors in our network pay us when we route them a call.

What is excluded, everywhere

The exclusions do not vary by state. Both InterNACHI and ASHI describe the inspection as covering readily accessible, visually observable systems and state that it is not technically exhaustive. Both exclude wells and pumps, septic and wastewater treatment, water quality and potability, fire sprinklers and gas leak testing. InterNACHI additionally names water flow and pressure, floor drains, shower pan testing and polybutylene piping.

What varies by town is how many people here have recently had a report in their hands to read the exclusions in. The full list is on its own page.
