4 MOST COMMON PLUMBING PROBLEMS

DRIPPING FAUCETS A dripping faucet is annoying, wasteful, and costly. It's a plumbing problem that many people suffer from. Here are some solutions: If you suspect that a worn-out washer or O ring could be causing the drip, simply replace it. Improper installation of your faucet is another common cause of drips. Reinstall it properly to prevent leaks, which can waste money on water bills and energy costs in addition to how frustrating these oddities can be.

RUNNING TOILET The most common plumbing issues are those related to a running toilet. This can waste up to 200 gallons of water daily, so it’s important to address any issues as soon as they occur.

CLOGGED DRAINS Drain issues are the most common plumbing problems, and flooding is more common than ever. If your drain isn’t an adequate solution, it can cause health hazards, damage your home and even potentially cost you thousands of dollars in lost value insurance claims. Make sure you find an experienced plumber to take care of this problem as soon as possible before things get worse and you encounter more expensive repair costs.

WATER HEATER PROBLEMS Hot water is a necessity in any home. It isn’t just for washing your dishes and cleaning yourself, it can also be used to provide steam for certain machines or baths, or help you heat food that isn’t ready to eat.

But when the water heater isn’t dispensing enough or any hot water, homeowners can be dealing with a plumbing crisis.
