7 Plumbing Problems You Shouldn’t Ignore

October 24, 2020 by Ashley T

You probably don’t give too much thought about your plumbing- unless something goes wrong there is no real need to think about it. However, there are often small niggly problems that we often choose to ignore. These could build up to bigger problems which could be avoided. 

In this article, we’ll look at the plumbing problems that, as a homeowner,  you shouldn’t ignore. 

Blocked Drains 

Clogged up drains may seem like an easy problem to fix, however, if you don’t take action quickly, then it could become serious. If a clogged drain is in the path of wastewater, you could be dealing with some quite unsanitary. 

It is possible to buy drain unblocker which may help, however, you may need the help of a plumber if this is a recurring problem. 

A Leaky Water Heater 

If you have puddles of water under your hot water heater there is a problem with the equipment. It is essential that you get on API Plumbing Website and book your plumber today to fix your leaking water heater. 

A Dripping Faucet 

A leaky faucet is not only annoying, it wastes a lot of water. It is also a sign that you need to have your faucet repaired. Get in touch with a plumber or fix it yourself. 

No Hot Water 

If you enjoy having a warm shower or bath then you will want to make sure your hot water is working at all times. When it stops working or is not adjusted properly, you may end up having to take a cold shower. Get a plumber out and see what is causing your water to not warm-up. 

Toilet Won’t Stop Running 

If your toilet is constantly running it is going to waste lots of water and affect your water bill. The cause of this may be the result of a broken internal component such as the float, chain, or the valves. It may also be a sign of something more serious. Get your plumber to come and check it out as soon as possible. 

Your Garbage Disposal Doesn’t Work

If you have a garbage disposal unit then it needs to be directly hooked up to your plumbing. If it isn’t working then you will need to get a plumber to help you out. If you ignore problems with your garbage disposal you may end up being left with an unsavoury mess as well as nasty smells. 

You Have Problems With Your Main Valve

In every home, there is a mains valve that allows you to shut off your water supply in an emergency, but what do you do when you get issues with that valve? If you are unable to shut off your water safely, then you should call a plumber. This is an important part of your plumbing system. If it doesn’t work, it could leave you having problems in an emergency such as flooding. Make sure and check that your mains valve works at all times.
