Here is something I am seeing during more and more during Virginia Beach home inspections. It is flexible drain lines installed under kitchen and bathroom sinks. These are always DIY repairs that seem to eventually always go wrong. Having your drain line run uphill is just another clue that this was a DIY install as well. Now I am not a code inspector, but these definitely are not a code approved product.
Drainage fittings shall have a smooth interior waterway of the same diameter as the piping served.
These drain lines seem to always be crammed under that cabinet that has all types of different storage. Have a qualified plumbing contractor make necessary repairs when things go wrong. This will help prevent things from going wrong in the future.
Just an example of the things your Virginia Beach home inspector is looking for during your home inspection in Hampton Roads.
