Plumbers are a blessing to many homeowners. They help them install or maintain heating systems, fix sanitation systems, repair bathrooms, install air-conditioning units and so much more. But when exactly should you hire a plumber? Well, when the situations highlighted below arise, it is advisable to call an experienced, licensed, and knowledgeable plumber.
Low water Pressure in Your Water System
Low water pressure in your home or business can arise due to many things. The problem can be caused by a simple thing like a blocked faucet or closed shut-off valve. It can also be caused by more pressing issues such as water leaks and blockages. Calling a plumber will not only help you pinpoint and fix the cause of your low water pressure but also help you identify and address other issues that could cause low water pressure in the future.
No Hot water? Call A Plumber Immediately
Hot water problems could be due to high water pressure, improper settings, or a lack of proper tank maintenance. It could also be caused by a failed heating element or leaking valves and plumbing connections. Trying to fix a hot water problem on your own will do more harm than good. Call a plumber. They will be able to analyze the problem, determine the cause, and fix it.
Noise Problems
Is there noise coming from your water systems? How does it sound like? Is it a high pitched whine or a low popping noise? The noise you are hearing could be because of excessive build-up of sediment at the bottom of your tank. There are articles and inexperienced plumbers that will tell you that you can fix the problem by draining the tank to get rid of the sediments. This does not always work! Call professional plumbers: they will help you fix the problem once and for good.
Frozen Pipes
Are your pipes frozen? If they are, make sure you check them carefully to see if they have cracks. If they are cracked, call a plumber immediately before things go from bad to worse. If the frozen pipe is not broken, you can thaw it with a hairdryer. But it is important to note that this technique does not always work and will not solve the underlying problems.
