Frequently Asked Questions About Plumbing Repairs
How Do I Know If I Need a Professional Plumber?
If you notice low water pressure, recurring clogs, leaks, or water stains on walls or ceilings, it’s best to call a licensed plumber. Ignoring these warning signs can lead to water damage or costly repairs later.
What Should I Do in a Plumbing Emergency?
First, shut off the main water supply to prevent flooding. Then, contact Travers Plumbing & Heating Inc. right away. Our team offers 24-hour emergency plumbing repair across Newport and the surrounding areas, so we can respond quickly to prevent further damage.
How Often Should My Plumbing Be Inspected?
We recommend scheduling a professional plumbing inspection at least once a year. Regular maintenance helps detect small leaks, corrosion, or buildup before they become major issues, saving you time and money in the long run.

★★★★★
The staff was incredibly helpful and responsive. Very friendly and completed the work in great time. Communication has been excellent. I will definitely be using Travers again in the future.

★★★★★
This was my third time using Travers to pump and service my septic tank. Definitely a five-star experience. My technician, Butch, called an hour prior to arrival as promised. He was professional, knowledgeable, and personable. Butch did a quality job both pumping out my tank and cleaning the filter. After the job was complete he reviewed the work done and recommended a future maintenance schedule based on the status of the filter. I will request Butch service my system again next year.
-Mark K.
★★★★★
As in a previous review I posted a number of years ago, things have not changed. From a familiar person answering the phone, to a very well trained technician performing the needed repairs. Sometimes things not changing is a good thing. I did before and still highly recommend Travers.
