Signs That You Should Call for Plumbing Repairs

The best situations happen when you can schedule services in advance rather than be surprised with an emergency that throws off your routine. That’s why we’ve compiled a list of some common signs indicating it’s a good idea to call in a second opinion:

• Water Damage – Look for weak spots in walls or flooring, mold growth, or dark patches.
• Frequent Clogs – It’s normal for drains to clog occasionally, but if you’re finding repetition in the number of times you’re fighting the drain, there’s an underlying problem.
• Discolored Water – If your water isn’t flowing clear (i.e., brown, yellow, or speckled with sediment), there’s likely a problem with your water heater or your pipes.
• Unusual Odors – Your drains shouldn’t smell, so if they’re emitting a funky odor, there may be a problem with a drain or sewer line clog.
• Knocking Sounds – If you hear a knocking sound from within your walls, there’s a strong chance that your pipes are loosening or undergoing pressure change that treatment ASAP.
• Low Water Pressure – Several things lead to having less water pressure than usual, from clogs to leaks and burst pipes, which all require fast action.
• General Issues – It’s a good idea to call for routine services to keep everything in proper working condition, even for seemingly small issues like steady drips or randomly running toilets.
