The various fixtures at work in your home’s plumbing system serve to make your life easier and more comfortable. This system isn’t invincible, and as time passes, you’ll likely encounter issues that will need to be resolved to restore their normal functionality. Here are a few of the most common residential plumbing problems to be aware of.
- Leaky faucets. Many homeowners don’t realize how much of a problem a leaky faucet is. Even a few drops at a time can add up to a lot of water waste the longer the problem goes ignored. Leaky faucets can be the result of a few different problems within the faucets themselves, but no matter what the issue is, our team can resolve it.
- Clogs. Because your residential plumbing system is largely comprised of pipes, clogs are a common problem to face. Clogs can occur anywhere within the pipes at work in your system and are often the result of drains and toilets being used improperly. You should only allow water, waste, and soap through the various fixtures in your home to help prevent clogs from forming.
- Water temperature issues. Are you struggling to get a hot shower? If so, your water heater is likely acting up. Hot water problems are one of the most common residential plumbing issues that homeowners deal with. Rust buildup and the age of your water heater both play into the effectiveness of your water heater. Sometimes your water heater can be repaired, but if the problem is big enough, you may need a replacement.
