Good plumbing is responsible for water coming in and out of your home so you can shower, wash your hands, clean your home, and flush your toilets. However, pipes or fixtures may develop problems that only a professional can handle. Here are some signs you need a local plumber.
Are showers taking forever because you're only getting a trickle of water coming out? According to our team, the ideal water pressure is between 45 and 65 PSI for most homes. If your water pressure is too low, that's usually a sign of a blockage somewhere in your system. It might be a problem with the actual fixture itself. After all, things like hard water scales begin to clog up your fixtures, and water may eventually cease to come out unless it's fixed.
Aside from a roof leak, one of the more common leaks comes from your pipes and fixtures. Even the smallest leak can cost a homeowner tons of annual expenses. It's also an environmental issue since you're wasting gallons of water.
After you shower and wash your dishes, does it seem like it's taking water forever to finally drain out? A functioning drainage system should immediately allow water to drain. If water appears to be sitting there for a period, slowly trickles out, or eventually pools without draining down at all, that's usually a sign of a pipe blockage or a full septic tank.
Are water bills getting you down? Even if your water usage hasn't increased, problems in your piping can create extra expenses. Your local plumber knows what to look for when it comes to finding a source of hidden leaks or anything else that may be causing water bills to rise.
According to Statistica, over 60% of Americans live in a house built before 1980. If you're one of those people, you may have bathroom fixtures that are several decades old. Those outdated fixtures may no longer function as they should and could be costing you additional money. Your local plumber can install a dual-flush toilet, which saves you several gallons of water with each flush.
